Finished watching the finalé at 03:30 this morning & now I'm sad that it's over!

What are some episodes or scenes you loved?

Quark getting married was hilarious. Grilka was actually pretty hot:

You included my three favourite episodes and the other was good too.
This is probably my second favourite Trek series--after the original.

Little Green Men had elements one feel to the original show-especially the episode Tomorrow is Yesterday, and some feel of the good parts of Escape from the Planet of the Apes--and overall was fun
Having someone from the worst episode of TOS (in my opinion) appear in one of my favourite DS9 episodes was also cool. (Charles Napier--in case you were wondering)

Trials & Tribulations told an engaging story without rewriting the original episode or history--it either happened alongside it or intertwined with it (The Tribbles being tossed out of the storage compartment & landing on Kirk was a great touch)
This episode respected the original and didn't need to detract from the original which I felt like TNG did at times (Especially in First Contact)
It was fun, told an engaging story & had drama all its own, and some nice touches of humour--which ST at its best does.

The Magnificent Ferengi title obviously refers to The Magnificent Seven--which they borrowed from in a good way.
The building of the team and the things that went wrong added humour & suspense.
And Iggy Pop as a Vorta was brilliant

My favorite episodes from this series are the ones that focus on or revolve around Gul Dukat. I always thought that he was one of the all-time great TV villains--evil to the core, yet likable at the same time. He typically viewed himself as "the good guy"---and as I remember, during the original run of the show, Marc Alaimo played him in a way that almost had you believing that he was--I have to admit that I was conned into that belief on more than one occasion.

Easily Star Trek's best villain.

Just watched the 4th season premier this morning. I feel this show has gotten better as it went along. And I still have three seasons to watch.

+1 I wish I could relive that point again but anew: it'd gotten awesome, Worf was onboard and there was more!

But why
did he have
to talk
sooooo sloooooooow?
Jeebus. His delivery, just as Kai Winn's, would get unbearable to my ears after a few minutes...

Anyway. Did anyone mention "In the Pale Moonlight" yet? There's heaps more I loved but I'd have to think about it/browse through a list.

Kai Winn.

Hands down, the most annoying character across all The Treks.

Yes, even more annoying than Keiko O'Brian or even Wesley Crusher.

His delivery was great. I never thought it was particularly slow.
