Star Trek DSN List of Lists compiled by Mark Holtz (Revised April 7, 1993) DISCLAIMER: "Star Trek", and all other related items are copyright and trademarks of Paramount Communications. Any infringement of these lists on Paramount's legitimate copyright and trademarks is purely unintentional, and will be corrected upon proper notification. These lists are for the enjoyment of the reader only, and may not be sold. This is the Star Trek DSN List of Lists. It contains a listing of all the episodes for "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" TV series, plus some added notes. (Due to length considerations, there is a separate TOS/TAS, Movies, and TNG List of Lists) This list comes out around the 1st of every month, with a repost on the 16th on the month, except July and August, when it will come out on the 1st only. However, a posting may not come out due to events beyond my control. If you are wondering why I compile these lists, it is strictly out of the enjoyment of "Star Trek", and enjoy the wealth of information from fellow Star Trek fans who post on the electronic networks. After being irritated by the ever constant requests for episode lists on Usenet, I decided that, in the middle of 1990, to post a list of episodes on a regular basis. It soon grew from that, and, with the contributions of other people, these lists grew to what you see today. (And still growing). The only payment I ask is thanks and contributions. I am not making a dime off these compilations.

Another 'fabulous object' story, and the Ferengi naturally want it. Battle Lines - terrorist story. Story Teller - A young girl meets Nog and the Sisko Kid, and the overhear some aliens plotting. Much of the story is set on Bajor, which is where the story teller of the title comes in. Progress - Takes place of Bajor and features Bajorans who dislike the Federation. It will also deal with the religious choas caused by the Orbs being not messages, but space probes. If Wishes Were Horses - The imaginations of the crew suddenly go out of control and becomes real. It will be revealed that Odo doesn't have a sense of smell. The Foresaken - Lwaxana Troi drops by for a visit, and takes an interest in Odo, the shapeshifter. Hands of the Prophets (?) - The final episode is not a cliff hanger and it involves a Bajoran religious leader objecting to Keiko teaching science in her class and wanting Bajoran childern to learn religious stuff instead. - Nog has something he wants to sell. Kira spends much of this episode on the planet, with a Bajoran group. Also rumored..... * The cast goes through the wormhole. * Kei Opaka will be reappearing. * There's supposed to be an episode _very_soon_ that explains this in a bit more detail. Something about the "exhaust gases" of the standard Federation impulse engines are damaging the wormhole, and the Runabouts will be modified to lessen the damage, and so the Runabouts will "tractor-beam" (pull) the ships through the wormhole. * Kira will be changing her uniform for the last few episodes of the season. * We'll see Odo in a bucket. * Fourteen episode have been filmed as of the beginning of March. Also Note ~~~~~~~~~ Colm Meany was absent for three episodes due to the filming of "Snapper". He will also appear in "In to the West". {|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|}{|} "Picture a place on the edge of infinite possibility.

Syndication Notes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" is a syndicated program that is sold to each individual station. It is not part of the FOX network, although many stations that have purchased TNG are also part of FOX. The production code # begins with 401 in order to prevent labeling errors with the original Star Trek series and the Next Generation. The first run episodes are uplinked to the local stations on the Saturday and Sunday of the Satellite Date. This uplinking is done through Keystone Communications (formerly WOLD Communications), through AT&T's Telstar 301 which is located at 96 degrees west. The program is uplinked at the following times on Transponder 9-Vertical Polarity (5V): Saturdays - 10:00 AM-11:00 AM ET/ 7:00 AM- 8:00 AM PT Saturdays - 4:00 PM- 5:00 PM ET/ 1:00 PM- 2:00 PM PT Sundays - 4:00 PM- 5:00 PM ET/ 1:00 PM- 2:00 PM PT The audio carriers are wide-band, and are: 6.2-left, 6.8-right, and 5.8-mono. No scrambling is employed in the uplink. (With AT&T's Telstar 301, launched in 1983, reaching the end of it's life, and with only enough fuel to launch it out of it's orbital slot, the feeds may be moved to AT&T's Telstar 302 (85 Degrees West) in the near future, and then to AT&T's Telstar 401, which is slated to be launched in November of 1993 to replace Telstar 301.) The station then airs the episode for the first time anytime during Paramount's official week of (Monday through Sunday), although some stations (notable the Paramount owned ones) are able to show the episodes the Sunday before the week-of in a prime-time slot. However, this requires special permission from Paramount. England/United Kingdom -====================- Sky Television has purchased the rights to the seriesm and will be showing it Sundays at 19:30 beginning May 16th. This is ahead of the CIC Video Release. Changes from Season to Season ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pilot to First Season -===================- Kira's hair is shorter, and she is wearing a different nosepiece. Working Titles ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Sore Losers" -> "Move Along Home" "Friends And Foes" -> "The Nagus" Major Species Appearance ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cardassians -=========- "Emissary" - When the Cardassians heard about one last remaining orb, one of their Gul's boards the station, and then the crew utilizes the services of the station. Later, when the Cardassians notice that one of their ships is missing, and not believing that there is a wormhole, attack the station. "Past Prologue" - The Cardassian chase after Tahna, a member of the Khon-Ma, who takes refuge on Deep Space Nine. Klingons -======- "Past Prologue" - Lurusa and B'Etor visit Deep Space Nine to conduct a transaction with Tahna.

They are: Rio Grande Yangtze Kiang Ganges Coincidentally, the runabouts are named after rivers. Birthdays ~~~~~~~~~ 1965 - Siddig El Fadil Did You Know.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ . . . Siddig El Fadil was originally considered to be Commander Sisko after the producers viewed "A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia"? However, after the producers found that Siddig was only 24, he was instead cast as Dr. Julian Bashier. . . . The current ruler of the Sudan is an Islamic fundamental fanatic who took over in 1989 in a military coup and has been in charge of a reign of terror since. His name is five unknown Arabic names Bashir. No, Siddig does not like him. . . . The pilot episode cost $12 million. Operation SNAFU ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Opening Credits - During the opening credit sequence, we see a comet passing by. The tail should be pointed away from the sun, however, when the camera passes through the tail, we don't see the sun. Dax - The production crew screwed up with the makeup of the Trill, Dax. In the TNG episode, "The Host", Odan is seen with a V-shaped nose ridge. However, this ridge is missing on Dax. In addition, the crew added on the "leapord" spots, which was used on Kamalla in "The Perfect Mate". "Past Prologie" - On the Runabout that Kira and Tana were on, they got into an argument and Tana pulled one of 2 phasers off of the wall. Yet when Sisko captured the runabout, both of the phasers were gone. (UV) =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ Thanks to. . .
