Revisiting Deep Space Nine

Last Christmas, I spoiled myself with a gift I should have gotten myself long ago: all seven seasons of Deep Space Nine on DVD. DS9 has always been my favourite Star Trek and as I am watching the entire show again I know more and more why so.
Unlike the past, I even like the earlier seasons. Partially because I had never seen a few of those episodes, but also because there is some sort of satisfaction in seeing the characters grow into what I ultimately remembered. Especially the third season was far better than I recalled, while I was actually a bit disappointed by the lack of development in the fourth which I used to love. Somehow once the Dominion was introduced, I wanted nothing but the war epic. The Klingon and Maquis interludes just seem like a waste of time. Fortunately I just started with season 5 now, so all is great again.
Watching an all-time favourite definitely beats watching new TV!
