    Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (abbreviated to DS9) is set in the Star Trek universe in the Milky Way galaxy. This show differs from the others by being quite stationery and not focused on the voyages. Also, it is regarded as one of the best in the Star Trek series because it deviates from the standard formula, it is "less trek and more war". At DS9 we meet new characters, starring Avery Brooks, Nana Visitor and René Auberjonois, but we also see some familiar faces. Series six begins three months into the Dominion War and its impact on the former crew of DS9. Be sure to check it out on DVD where you get 7 discs to watch through including plenty of special features, including Ferengi Rules of Acquisition: The Beginning and Mission Inquiry: Far Beyond the Stars.

    Next on the Star Trek series list is Deep Space Nine: Series 4. DS9 is considered the breakthrough series, because it dared to steer away from the familiar in Star Trek, while keeping its core values. But most fans are united on where to start watching it, and that is - anywhere after the first two seasons, that's where it really becomes exciting. So, get your sci-fi on with series 3 and this fourth series in the franchise, and join the crew on their interplanetary adventures aboard the Federation station Deep Space Nine. Rent it on DVD where plenty of extra content is waiting for you, like Charting new territory: Deep space nine season four and Bob Blackman's designs of the future.

    This is the first Trek spin-off to be made without any input at all from Gene Roddenberry, made its debut in 1995 and quickly established itself both as markedly different from cosmic cousin Deep Space Nine and as the successor to The Next Generation. Despite a lack of originality in its premise, Voyager was nonetheless often a bigger rating success than any of its predecessors.
