In the Pale Moonlight was brilliant, as well as the Visitor.
I just can't stop myself watching this episode again and again.

"The one, the only, THE 359!"
"Move Along Home" was rubbish.
"Far Beyond The Stars" is too good to trust the BBC for a copy of.

For a long time there is peace in empty lands.
People will walk safely by air, land, sea, waves.
Then again wars will be stirred up..."

My favourite overall must be the "Improbable Cause"\"The Die is Cast" two parter.

I like it because it exemplifies the heart of what DS9 has done for Trek. It has introduced moral ambivalence to a series that needs it to stay fresh and capable of inducing us to look at our own behavior. An issue at the heart of DS9 is the first quote in my signature. Do we take the position of pacifists and "out-of-box" thinkers and proclaim pure peace and non-violent, innovative action as the best alternative to conflict? Or do we acknowledge the obvious, and be equally humane by pulling others into a war before their naturally progressing position would have put them in? Have we saved more lives one way? Do we violate our norms of lawful protocol so much we disrupt precedent and tradition by these actions? Are either sides of this question really right or wrong? The point is that there is merit to both sides, and watching this episode forces us out of comfort to confront something we might not want to learn about ourselves, but perhaps should. Yes, I feel strongly about this, but I felt this an appropriate place to speak.

Seriously: 'For The Uniform' is one of my favorites too.
