- Sacrifice of Angels - Dukat loses a daughter, while the Alpha Quadrant gains a victory. Severe space combat action and some great character development between Dukat and Sisko.
- You Are Cordially Invited... - Worf's plans for a traditional Klingon wedding are threatened when Martok's wife refuses to accept Dax into their family. Everyone loves a good wedding!
- Far Beyond the Stars - After a friend's ship is destroyed and Sisko considers leaving Starfleet, he begins having visions of his crew as 1950s Americans. The best part about this was seeing everyone out of their make-up.
- One Little Ship - In order to investigate a rare subspace phenomenon, Dax, O'Brien, and Bashir board the Runabout, U.S.S. Rubicon, that is shrunken to four inches long. Sure it was a gimmicky episode, but it sure was fun!
- Honor Among Thieves - Starfleet Intelligence recruits Chief O'Brien to infiltrate the Orion Syndicate, the Alpha Quadrant's leading organized crime ring, to find a Starfleet informant. A very heartbreaking episode about what it is like to see things from the other side
- His Way - A new Holosuite program gives birth to "Vic," a 60's crooner who also provides advice for the lovelorn. The actor who plays Vic is great and makes many more appearances on the show. The best part is he finally brings Odo and Kira together.
- The Reckoning - Sisko is called to Bajor when an ancient tablet addressing the Emissary is discovered. The best part of this is how Kai Winn is smacked down because she, as the religious leader of Bajor, is shown to have weaker faith than Sisko. Great stuff.
- The Sound of Her Voice - The Defiant unknowingly picks up a time-displaced distress call. This is one of the best character development episodes of the series.
- Tears of the Prophets - A valued Deep Space Nine crew member meets an untimely end. Any time you kill off a principle character, it has to make the list. This was quite unexpected, and quite sad.
Only one season left... I better cherish it.
