What would you do to make DS9 better as a series? What changes would you have made?

If it had never ended, it would have gotten boring after a while. The good writers would have died and been replaced with highschool dropouts.

I think I might have changed the opening titles a tiny bit.

I don't think DS9 could get boring, but if it kept going though; it might run into bad writers. Maybe. Now we would not want that to happen.

Good point....

I honestly wouldn't change anything. Maybe not have had Jadzia die. Ezri wasn't bad, but since she was there for only one season, she didn't get enough development.

I'd agree with the keeping Jadzia. Other than that, DS9 was very good.

And besides, if Jadzia wasn't killed, Worf still had someone to love.

Change Deep Space Nine? Are you CRAZED??? DS9 is the ONLY Star Trek Series that is 100% perfect in every aspect. The Crew alone stands out more than VOY, ENT, TNG and TOS. There are much more plotlines to have, more war, more Ferengi episodes and an entire Quadrant to explore without loosing the famous Alpha Quadrant races. I like everything about it, even Jadazi�s death occurred at the CORRECT time and place of the show.

Well...I beg to differ...but we'll put our differences aside. Lol, I adored Jadzia and I'm not happy with the series without her. So, to me...it was only about 60% perfect...

I have to agree it was perfect especially with Jadzia. She made it awesome along with Sisko. It seemed to me when Ezri came along, to me it died a little. Poor worf. But other than that, Sisko made DS9 rock.

I think Terry Farell[Jadzia]was temporarily insane to leave DS9 when she did.It was really bolting along in the storylines with only a short time until the end of the series.She should have stayed,Becker is a crap show.It didnt get her any higher on the acting ladder.She looked prettier with her hair up in a pony tail,in becker its mostly down.She is really degraded as her character in Becker and would have done better to stick out to the end of DS9.Leaving for better things didnt help Denice Crosby[TNG]to get a better part.

I totally agree. Jadzia was cool, funny, and strong. She looked great with her hair up.
