I think DS9 is the best series, although since I haven't seen any of the newer series maybe there's mo' better to be had. And by newer I mean anything after DS9.That being said - I don't think DS9 actually had a very good ending. It was fine. Perfectly cromulent, to borrow a feeling from another show. But was Cisco's much vaunted connection to the space gods really nothing more than an ability to fire a phaser rifle? Pretty sure plenty of Star Fleet grads can do that.Also, the lead up to the ending was just weird. They actually dedicated time (Was it 2 episodes? My brain is saying 2 episodes) to having several of the central cast help some holograms from the holodeck. Saved their holo-bar from holo-mobsters or something naughty word stupid like that. Episodes that could have been dedicated to the main plot. Truthfully, I don't think they ever quite threw off the shackles of episodic TV.But the show did have some good character arcs. And the over arching plots worked pretty well.</blockquote>
