	Emissary (episode) - Memory Alpha - A Wikia wiki
		This is why, for example, the DS9 crew themselves have "TNG-style" uniforms in the beginning of this episode and, even after TNG had gone off the air, the dress uniforms on DS9 (as well as on Earth in "Homefront" and "Paradise Lost") were TNG style.
		Jadzia Dax and Trills seen after this episode are distinctly different from the Trills in the TNG episode "The Host." There is considerably more depth to the relationship between the host and symbiont in Trill joining than described in the TNG episode.
		Miles O'Brien was brought aboard DS9 in this episode and made a part of the senior staff because the producers felt that Colm Meaney was too talented an actor to confine his character to a transporter room.

	ST Universe Episode Review - Deep Space Nine \| Season 1 \| Emissary
		A brilliant pilot episode, Emissary successfully introduces all the main characters, establishes the setting, and lays a surprisingly large amount of groundwork for all that was to follow.
		Pilot episodes are often just there to perform a function — introduce the characters and the concept of the show, and have a showy finale to impress everyone.
		Emissary breaks the mould by actually telling a damn good, and unusual, story as well as introducing all the necessary elements.

	ST Universe Episode Review - Deep Space Nine \| Season 1 \| Past Prologue
		DS9 gets off to a great start with its first regular episode — a story that manages to flesh out a number of characters, introduce some new ones (already!), and further develop the political make-up of the region, with a very well written episode.
		DS9 pitched itself as representing the “less than perfect” side of the Star Trek universe, and this episode explores the crew’s personal conflicts very well.
		She expands on what she said in Emissary about not believing that the Federation will stay — even going so far as to say she doesn’t believe they should be here at all.

		One of them is that the internal logic of the episode doesn't work (there's no way to justify Tahna possessing the antimatter converter without making Odo seem utterly incompetent), and the other is that it was just too damned early in the season for a "loyalties get tested" show.
		DS9 has the opportunity to show us a lot about the mechanics of the Federation, not to mention a great deal about how it's viewed outside the normal spheres of influence we see.
		Along the same lines, since DS9 is mostly confined to Bajor and its environs, we have a unique opportunity to see the true culture of a _planet_ in the Trek universe, something else we've never seen.

		As was becoming the tradition, the torch was passed to DS9 by Jean-Luc Picard himself, with the Enterprise-D docked at one of the upper pylons.
		It all ended with the climatic battle for Cardassia, where the Dominion is defeated once and for all, and the Emissary defeating Gul Dukat and the Pah Raiths (sp?), ultimately being called to the Celestial Temple by the Prophets.
		DS9 at its best was action and intrigue, with characters we grew to know and love, set in an era we are all familiar with.

	The Ten Smartest Things the Powers That Be Did to DS9
		The powers that be in charge of DS9 made many smart moves over the years in making DS9 stand out from the rest of the Trek universe.
		DS9, set on a Cardassian station in Bajoran space, broke that unwritten rule when it made the Starfleet officers a minority population to the Bajoran majority.
		Even if the show had gone on to fall on its face and never do another noteworthy episode in its entire run--which, thankfully, was not the case--the producers and the fans would always have been able to look upon "Duet" with pride.

		Sisko's role as the Emissary was of unexpected value when he was able to convince the Prophets to intervene on behalf of the Bajoran people to destroy the Dominion fleet in the wormhole (DS9: "Sacrifice of Angels").
		Her beliefs held that Benjamin Sisko was the Emissary of Bajoran prophesy, but she sometimes found it difficult to reconcile the fact that her commanding officer was a religious icon (DS9: "Destiny").
		Note that DS9: "Rules of Engagement" suggests that O'Brien joined Starfleet in 2350, although the Setlik III backstory establishes that he was already in the service aboard the Rutledge in 2347.

		The cover art for "Emissary" is right on for this particular novel as it displays an entire cast picture which at the time of this novelizations release was very helpful.
		"Emissary" is of course the novelization of Star Trek Deep Space Nine's pilot episode.
		With that catalyst in mind, "Emissary" begins with Commander Sisko's arrival and the arrival of the rest of the cast to include introductions to Major Kira Nerys, Odo and Quark.

	Goodbye Deep Space Nine....
		When DS9 was first introduced in January of 1993, many questions were asked of the series.

		In the final episode of DS9, which is titled "What you Leave Behind," the war with the Dominion comes to a final confrontation.

		Sisko, as discoverer of the wormhole and its inhabitants, is therefore the Emissary of Bajoran prophesy.
		EMISSARY suffers from a lot of the flaws that have plagued Star Trek spin-off pilots, although I think it has so far been the most successful.
		The introduction of the characters is mostly handled well, although there are a few clumsy moments, and a lot of the people and their makeup don't appear to be quite in their regular form yet.

		Based on the pilot Episode of DS9, it pretty much sticks to the plot of the episode, but it doesn't make the mistake so many do.
		The author doesn't try to stretch the episode to fit 275 pages, but instead fills in all the extra with background for the characters, both major and minor, so that we have a better idea of who we will be seeing through the series.
		It is relatively well written, although a few scenes do fall flat on their face when the author fails to adequately convey sarcasm or humor, and the prophets just didn't make the transition from TV to novel very well.

	Bring Q to Enterprise and explain the Klingon difference. Petition
		I feel that Enterprise needs to do at least one episode with Q in it, and I feel the Klingon difference MUST be explained.
		DS9's episode "Defiant" where Rikers double seen in TNG's episode "Second Chances" is again seen and plays a major part of the story line.
		These episodes along with all the ones with Q, and the others Im sure Im forgetting are some of the Best Star Trek episodes ever; and they just make the Star Trek universe more believable.

		This is a complex episode with oogles of internal continuity and nice small details.
		Finally, this episode ends with a marvelous cliffhanger; Sisko trying to investigate the Celestial Temple on behalf of the Bajorans.
		Even in the first episode, we're shown how readily DS9 uses a vast set of characters, a tradition which enhances the overall quality of the show quite a bit.

		For example, the first episode of TNG "Encounter at Farpoint" had an initial stardate of 41153.7--if the revised stardate system began on January 1, 2323--that would place that date in "Encounter at Farpoint" on February 25, 2364.
		For example, the TNG first season episode "Symbiosis"--featuring Tasha Yar--was filmed after the episode "Skin of Evil" in which the character was killed (there's a scene in "Symbiosis" in which Denise Crosby waves goodbye to the camera in the background before a door closes).
		There are times when two episodes are filmed almost simultaneously and the one that finishes first may air first, so it's easier not to feature a stardate, or put down "Captain's log, supplemental".

	DS9 Review for "Ascession"
		The one thing that distinguishes DS9 from all the other Star Trek series, is that is has been the one that most deeply explores religious feeling.
		He was uncomfortable being the Emissary so the Prophets sent another forcing Sisko to fight for it back.
		They certainly were not so passive "In the Hands of the Prophets." In fact, it was the Bajoran's passivity that forced Sisko hands when the temple priest chucked a fellow priest off the side of the promenade for being the wrong caste.

		Objection: in the fourth season ST:DS9 episode "Starship Down" (stardate 49263.8), Major Kira states that it is an anniversary of the arrival of the Emissary (Sisko).
		The best explanation available is that the anniversary was not of Sisko's actual arrival on DS9, but of some event that took place shortly after that.
		This is approximately in the middle of the first season of DS9.

		The fact that it includes the final episode of TNG "All Good Things...," without having to purchase the mostly cringe-worthy Season 7 of TNG, was a bonus as well.
		But, this is definitely a great compilation of "The Best of Borg Episodes," and great for those viewers who need more of their "Borg fix" after watching "Star Trek: First Contact" again for the 59th time.
		It's a shame episodes like TNG's "The Emissary," DS9's "Bloodoath," or the 7th Season VOY episode where the crew finds a ship full of Klingons were not included.

		Well as far as season premieres go it was ok, but as for a DS9 episode it was fair, it was all talk, no action, no fantastic space battle, just talk, but good talk.
		Now do you all remember the episode ‘Far Beyond The Stars, where Ben was the writer, in 1940’s Earth, well this individual, was shown to be in a mental hospital, and where had chronicled the adventures of DS9 and her crew on the walls of his room, “sounds intriguing”.
		Sisko found the Orb of the Emissary, and when he opened it this, brilliant blue shot out into to space, and reopened the Wormhole, and then he meet with the Prophets, where they told in not so may words that he was the son of a Prophet, “in simpler terms Sisko is a Demi-God”.

		Like "The Trouble with Tribbles" from 29 years earlier, this fifth-season episode is an instant classic, beginning when a surgically altered Klingon (Charlie Brill, reprising his role from "Tribbles") uses a Bajoran Orb of Time to travel back over 100 years to prevent his past-tense capture by Capt. James T. Kirk.
		This episode was funny, and the special effects(the effects where DS9 mixed with TOS) were great.
		The story in this episode is simple but effective, but the details in recreating the original Eneterprise sets, cistumes, props and even the Model itself was expertly done.

	Archived Entry - 04/28/2004: "Star Trek DS9 Book Review: Unity"
		It seems to be a capsulated version of all the DS9 novels that preceded this one, which either saves you the expense of buying and reading all those other books, or makes you curious to find and read them.
		Jake thought that meant he would find his father, but instead he found the Kai, whom DS9 fans may recall was left behind on a planet where the inhabitants were perpetually at war; something in the air kept bringing them back to life so they could fight over and over again.
		S.D. Perry is obviously as well-informed about the series as the most devoted Trekker, and her devotion shows in the way she manages to bring in all the familiar, well-loved characters from DS9 and uses them to advance the plot, not as filler to cover up the holes in it.
