Amazon.co.uk Review

The seventh and final series of Deep Space Nine came down to loose ends, tying some existing ones together and allowing others to unravel. Symptomatic of the unwillingness to let DS9 go was the immediate arrival of a replacement Dax, though poor Nichole deBoer as Ezri Dax had to have known she'd already missed the boat. Her appearance encouraged last-minute romances to blossom, with Bashir finally getting some action, Odo finally getting together with Kira and Sisko finally proposing to Kassidy. Another contributing cute factor were numerous trips to the Holosuite wherein the all-knowing Vic Fontaine dished out philosophical advice. That was when the crew weren't in there to play baseball against the Vulcans or when Nog wasn't commiserating about the loss of a leg.

Oh yes, and don't forget the war! There was an early announcement that the show would attempt a 10-part resolution to the Dominion War, but viewers could be forgiven for forgetting all about it with so much sentimental distraction. When the horrors of war did resurface, they at least injected a few surprises into the mix. Odo and his ambiguously "evil" Founders were hit with a melting disease, prompting a backstabbing race for the power of developing and owning a cure. The original baddie Cardassians finally settled on the Federation's side.

Contrary to these interesting twists, however, were the unexpected turns taken by matters relating to Sisko's spiritual destiny. Suddenly the mystery of the wormhole and an entire religious belief system was reduced to the problem of translating correctly the words of a sacred book. The struggle to join with some evil aliens significantly diluted the attempt at resolving what had begun seven years before in the show's pilot episode. Ultimately, Sisko's destiny, as with all those who'd followed him to the open-ended climax, was to be decided elsewhere. In a move that was either bold and daring--or possibly born of desperation for not having thought things through properly--the show's storylines were to be continued in a series of spin-off books. --Paul Tonks

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Ending to a Fantastic Series, 13 Mar 2004
By A Customer
The final season of Deep Space Nine includes many plot twists, with the fantastic 10-part episode arc at the end. There are some weak episodes, such as "Take Me Out to the Holosuite" and "It's Only Paper Moon", but these are very watchable, but fail to interest, as I personally wanted to see more of the war, not little diversions. Still, this season is well worth it if you have collected the previous seasons. It's a shame it all comes to an end here - I find it hard to watch the second half of the final episode because it is so depressing.
Overall though, I never expected that DS9 would have come this far - a sci-fi legend with a great ongoing story and brilliant acting.
Watch out for the Voyager box sets starting in May 2004.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fantastic Finish., 10 Sep 2004
By A J Taylor (Cambridge, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This purchase really has been the best DVD boxset I've bought, the series is the best Star Trek series going and this last season is high quality from start to finish. The last of the great story arcs are played out. What will happen to Kira, Odo, Dax, O'Brien, Bashir, Sisko, Du Kut, the Dominion War, the Klingons, the Romulans????

A must for all Star Trek fans, this series is compulsory viewing and the DVD boxset makes it easy to store and to watch, with useful handbooks and great interviews with the production crew and actors and actresses. There are also profiles of the sets, the non starfleet goodies and baddies, as well as an overview of each of the main crew.

If you haven't bought it already, do so soon, I watched the whole of Deep Space Nine from start to finish over the summer and I really recommend that as a way to see this show to see how characters, events and ideas are built up of the years to a thrilling conclusion.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Last Series, 30 Dec 2003
This boxed set has only 1 fault, its the last. The series answers many questions raised throughout 1-6 yet leaves some to your imagination, doubless these will be addressed in books, as was Voyager.Overall a great Boxed set,very well priced(the shops charge £79.99 upwards).Throughout, DS9 has raised many questions and possible solutions,some of which could be revelant today. An excellent series,well packaged with lots of extras, including the final part of the PC Screensaver.
