How often do you watch DS9?

[Marie1]

ls what l would be saying if l hadn't accidentally pushed the submit button instead of the preview one.

So to use this thread - how often do you watch DS9 now? lt hasn't been new in quite some time and l'm sure some of you have at least your favourite parts memorized. l remember many minor scenes with the Jem'hadar. So when it's on or you have time to watch - do you still watch DS9... or something new???

I haven't watched an episode in three or four months and haven't watched much of any Trek lately.

Well, right now I watch it most every day. But before two weeks ago, hadn't seen it in years. Didn't really watch it when it was on (it was too late), but I caught a bunch when it was running on Spike back in 05/06. I saw some SFDebris stuff, saw his review of Duet, and that was powerful enough that I had to watch the whole episode. Almost got a Netfilx account just for that, but it's also on Amazon Prime, so I lucked out.

I've been watching it almost every day for a week or two. Since 2001 til a couple weeks ago, the only Trek I watched was the JJ Abrams movie and a about half the TOS episodes.

I think I've finally recovered from the emotional scarring left by Enterprise.

I haven't watched a full episode of DS9 for at least 6 months. It is currently not on FTA here so I don't have an option of watching it on TV.

I watched when DS9 was airing in First run, got the DVD sets about 5 years ago, and watched them all straight through, and a few months back watched them all straight through again (As well as Voyager and Enterprise).

I don't watch much new TV (Watching 3 new shows a week is a lot for me, typically, I only have 1 or two, currently only watching Once Upon a Time and looking forward tot he return of The Walking Dead). So, I watch old stuff, I want to rewatch or never saw (Just finished Earth Final Conflict for the first time, and currently watching Andromeda for the first time) at about the rate of a Season a week.

I rarely watch a single selected episode of something, so, generally, I'll start with the first episode and work my way through the entire show.

I want to rewatch Babylon 5 and Farscape again soon and still need to watch all of TNG (Only watched in first airing and the random rerun episode, never had a full rewatch of TNG) and want to go through all of TOS/TAS, so, it'll be quite some time before I return to DS9 again.

I tend to watch the entire series once a year. I am the kinda guy who has to start the series and finish it, watching every episode.

 

[Beta-Z]

It's right now on the air on Tele5 here in Germany

 

[Sykonee]

Haven't watched any since my DS9 Versus thread. I'll usually marathon the series every few years, but since a lot of it is so ingrained now, just reading a watch thread can feel like it's playing on the tele'. Yeah, weird, I know.

 

[R. Star]

I went through all seven seasons a few months ago, but haven't really watched it since. I'm slowly trudging through Voyager at the rate of two or three episodes a week. I'll usually just put an episode one when I'm ready to go to bed and fall asleep half way through. No big deal since I've seen it all.

 

[Tora Ziyal]

I did a marathon about a year ago, when Netflix started streaming it. Haven't watched it since.

 

[grabthars hammer]

Run through the whole series about once a year, skipping 'Move Along Home' and 'Meridian'.

lol made me laugh I know the feeling when watching these episodes. Also for me another episodes fits this "non watch-able episode" is the one when they go to risa and have a weather hijack problem (something along those lines)

 

[RandyS]

I started a rewatch on September 29, after finishing my Babylon 5 rewatch the very day that B5 captain Michael O'Hare died. As of today, I started season two. Today was "The Circle" Trilogy. I average anywhere from one to four episodes a day, depending on time, etc.

Last time I might have seen an episode was several months ago. Ever since finishing TNG Season 1 on blu-ray, I've only seen like 2 episodes of Star Trek and that was Voyager season 5.

In my area, and with the service and channels I get, there is a complete Star Trek black-out on TV nowadays.

No Treks at all, not even on SY-FY, which I thought was made for something like Trek. I thought they'd show half a day's worth of Trek everyday. They definitely have enough episodes.

All they show now is "Ghost Hunters"

I miss watching Trek on TV spontaneously. I miss watching them late at night, it always gave watching reruns that special feel to it.

BBC America has 2 (or 3?) episodes of TNG every Saturday, if you get BBCA. Also, one of the new Retro channels (MYTV or one of those types, which I don't get yet, but, I believe should be added soon) carries TOS.

 

[Nightdiamond]

Thanks for the info, I'll have to see if my satellite service carries it.

Funny thing is, DS9 used to be my favorite, but I always end up getting used to watching the TNG episodes.

I always wondered if it were true about what they say-- DS9 was highly praised, but the reruns always got lower ratings, which is why we don't see it on TV.

It's been years!

l haven't watched it lately - l don't believe it's airing here at the moment. But even still l don't feel compelled to watch it no matter how much l enjoyed it in the past. The more l have the more episodes l want to gloss over! l really want to watch TNG and TOS... l don't remember them as well. But DS9 was my favourite and has my favourite species... l wonder what happened? Haven't watched any ST but the '11 movie in long time! o.0

I recently did a run through the entire season via netflix, though before that I hadn't seen any of it several years. I've seen every episode multiple times now, so there's really no need....occasionally I'll catch a clip on youtube.
