Impressions of a First-time Niner.

As hard as it is for we die-hard Niners to believe, there are many Star Trek fans who are just now viewing Deep Space Nine for the very first time. In many cases, they’ve heard from friends how DS9 is a rich series filled with character depth and complex story threads and have decided they must see this for themselves. And then, they get into Season One and wonder what all the hooplah is about. In this episode of The Orb we’re joined by Trek.fm’s own TOS editor Drew Stewart to find out about his own experience as he explores this corner of the Alpha Quadrant for the very first time. Plus, we reveal how “Move Along Home” could have been an instant classic.
