I really liked "Fascination"

20 year old Star Trek fan here. I recently started watching through DS9 for the VERY FIRST time and I've been enjoying it quite a bit so far. Some of my favorite episodes include Duet, Armageddon Game, Whispers, The Search, Civil Defense…there's a lot of episodes I don't care for but now that I'm on season three the show seems to be in its groove.

Last night I watched S3E10 "Fascination" and it turns out it's ranked one of the worst?? It's one of my favorites of the season so far! I like it when Trek gets goofy and watching Odo interact with Lwaxana will never get old. Plus his reaction to Bashir and Kira in the infirmary is hilarious. I don't know, I liked it. But I also found a tad bit of enjoyment in "Move Along Home" and didn't care for "Second Skin" so maybe my taste is all messed.

That's fantastic! Diving into DS9 for the first time is such a thrilling adventure. Enjoy it. 32 years since it came out, January 3, 1993.
