After 7 years of Deep Space Nine I was wondering what was everyones favourite episode?

Not an easy question. What about "In the Pale Moonlight"?

This is a difficult question to answer but one of them has to be in a pale moonlight and the other is beyond the stars.

There were several good ones on the War Arc. "In the Pale Moonlight" was good as were "Rocks and Shoals", "Sacrifice of Angels", and "Children of Time". Pre War Arc goodies included "Nor the Battle to the Strong" and "The Visitor".

"Far Beyond the Stars" was one of my least favorite episodes.

"The Visitor" and "In the Cards". Jake may only have gotten three eps to himself, but they were some of the best.

I thought "The Sound of Her Voice" was a pretty good one, too.

Pilot: You're sure they were Americans, eh?
Fraser: They were all wearing new boots, they were driving a Jeep Wrangler, and they carried big guns.
Pilot: Americans it is.

I personally didn't like "In the Cards" that much. It was fun, but more that soap opera kind of episode.

I completely agree. Though I'd probably be willing to agree with most of the other suggestions too, if someone had me locked inside an iron maiden or in Donny Osmond's dressing room or something.

Odo eps are sometimes the best.

having just read the title of this thread...

"The Visitor"

simple.

Best Trek episode... EVER.

I would say that 'Our Man Bashir' was an amusing one. Sisko as a bad guy for once was nice. The tie-in with the 007 movies and 'Our Man Flint' was a good touch too. Bashir and Garak were good at playing secret agents.

'Way of the Warrior' and 'The Search Pt.1' were good episodes too. The Defiant's entrance into the series executed perfectly, decloaking right ontop of DS9. DS9's first seige battle was good in showing what the Dominion would go up against if they tried invading.

One of my favorite "comedy" episodes has to be the one when quark has to rescue moogie from the Dominion.

OK, I'll play.

My favourites out of the episodes that have already been mentioned are-
"Way of the Warrior", "Rocks and Shoals", "Far Beyond the Stars", and "In the Pale Moonlight".

A couple of other brilliant episodes worth mentioning are-
"The Die is Cast", and "Tacking Into the Wind".

Of course, there are many more outstanding episodes - I really miss DS9.

Not to sound like an anal twat, but "Trials and Tribble-ations" was season 5, not season 4.
