Did a big DS9 binge last night, wrapped up the season 7 episodes before the 9-part Final Chapter.
"The Emperor's New Cloak"
Mirror Ezri was kinda funny but in general I felt like this episode was at best wasting my time.
"Field of Fire"
A better Ezri episode. Liked the Ezri vs Joran stuff. Otherwise forgettable.
"Chimera"
Not sure how I feel about Kira lying to Sisko so blatantly and releasing a murderer, but it patched up a lot of my bad feelings towards Odo.
"Badda-bing, Badda-bang"
Fucking amazing. Loved every second of this. It's like a going away party before the final arc. The creators are just having fun here and I love it. Sisko and Vic singing "The Best Is Yet To Come" could've been the series finale for all I care. Standing ovation.
"Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges"
I am a big fan of Bashir and this is a great Bashir episode. Fascinating, continually relevant, eerie, and unsettling. This is an episode I'll have to rewatch a few times.
So that's it. I've reached the Final Chapter of DS9 for the first time. I already think this is the best television show of all time. Can't wait to see how it ends.
