Season 2’s “Invasive Procedures” saw Kira get taken hostage.
Season 1’s “Dramatis Personae” involves the crew getting psychically imprinted with other personalities. Season 1’s “A Man Alone” involves a bad guy faking his death to frame Odo. Season 1’s “Move Along Home” is basically a wager episode. I think the series got paranormal right off the bat, in the pilot, “Emissary,” right? I also think Picard’s presence in the pilot counts as a crossover.
Today, we look at the acclaimed Star Trek spin-off series, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, about the cast of characters who live and work on a space station orbiting the planet of Bajor, which just had finished a war against the Cardassians. When we hit five in a row, that’s a “bingo”! In case you don’t know how bingo works, the idea is that you mark off a box (in traditional bingo, someone will draw ping pong balls with numbers and letters on them like a lottery machine) and when you check off five boxes in a row (whether left to right, up and down or diagonal) then that counts as a “bingo.” Here, we’ll be going episode-by-episode and seeing whether they match any of the boxes on our bingo card. You know the concept, I use a TV Bingo card (one for dramas and one for sitcoms) and I’ll go through the episodes in order and see how quickly I hit a bingo. Today, we play TV Bingo with Star Trek: Deep Space Nine!
