"Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" List of Lists compiled by Mark Holtz Last Revised May, 1996 DISCLAIMER: "Star Trek", and all other related items are copyright and trademarks of Paramount Communications. Any infringement of these lists on Paramount's legitimate copyright and trademarks is purely unintentional, and will be corrected upon proper notification. These lists are for the enjoyment of the reader only, and may not be sold. This is the "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine List of Lists". It contains a listing of all the episodes for "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" TV series, plus some added notes. These lists will be updated from time to time. Other list of lists available include: * "Star Trek Classic" List of Lists * "Star Trek: The Next Generation" List Of Lists * "Star Trek: Voyager" List of Lists * "Babylon Five" List Of Lists * "Quantum Leap" List Of Lists Due to past problems, plus simple lack of time, no print copies will be made available. If you are wondering why I compile these lists, it is strictly out of the enjoyment of "Star Trek", and the wealth of information from fellow Star Trek fans who post on the electronic networks. After being irritated by the ever-constant requests for episode lists on Usenet, I decided in the middle of 1990 to post a list of episodes on a regular basis. It soon grew from that, and, with the contributions of other people, these lists grew to what you see today. (And they're still growing). The only payment I ask is thanks and contributions. I am not making a dime off these compilations. Did you know: In PDP-11 assembly language, there was a set of instructions that were specifically implemented for making linked lists. A linked list is a list that points to either another list or a piece of data. In the instruction manuals I read, these were referred to as "lists of lists" (unless, of course, the linked list pointed only to data). (Thanks to Paul Hoffman) To contact the compiler, try the following e-mail addresses: Usenet: mholtz@calweb.com http: //www.calweb.com/~mholtz Fidonet Netmail: Mark Holtz@1:203/1701 (Deep Space Franchise) BBS: (916) 721-1701 US Snail: Mark Holtz c/o Valley Mfg. & Eng.

United States/Canada -==================- "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" is a syndicated program that is sold to each individual station. It is not part of the FOX network, although many stations that have purchased DSN are also part of FOX. The first run episodes are uplinked to the local stations on the Saturday and Sunday of the Satellite Date. This uplinking is done through Keystone Communications (formerly WOLD Communications), through AT&T's Telstar 401 which is located at ?? degrees west. The program is uplinked at the following times on Channel 3-Vertical Polarity (aka Transponder 2V): Saturdays - 10:00 AM-11:00 AM ET/ 7:00 AM- 8:00 AM PT Saturdays - 4:00 PM- 5:00 PM ET/ 1:00 PM- 2:00 PM PT Sundays - 4:00 PM- 5:00 PM ET/ 1:00 PM- 2:00 PM PT The audio carriers are wide-band, and are: 6.2-left, 6.8-right, and 5.8-mono. No scrambling is employed in the uplink. The satellite feeds were originally carried on AT&T's Telstar 301, which was located 96 degrees west, on Channel 9-Vertical Polarity (aka Transponder 5V, Uplink Freq. 6265MHz, Downlink Freq. 4040MHZ, Block IF Freq. 1110, transponder power 8.5 watts). Telstar 301 was originally launched on July 28, 1983 on a Delta 3920 rocket, but, in 1993, the satellite ran out of station keeping fuel, and was unable to maintain it's orbital slot. On August 30th, all of Paramount's feeds have been temporarily moved to Telstar 302, located 85 degrees west, with the Star Trek feeds located on Channel 3-Vertical Polarity (aka Transponder 2V, Uplink Freq. 5985MHz, Downlink Freq. 3760MHz, Block IF Freq. 1390, transponder power 8.5 watts). Telstar 302 was launched on September 1, 1984 from the Space Shuttle. The feeds moved again to Telstar 401 when it is launched on a General Dynamics Atlas IIAS booster rocket on December 13, 1993. In February of 1994, the feed moved to their present location on Telstar 401. The station then airs the episode for the first time anytime during Paramount's official "week of" (Monday through Sunday), although some stations (notably Paramount owned ones) are able to show episodes the Sunday prior to the week-of, but that requires special permission from Paramount.

"Past Prologue" - Garak wants Dr. Bashier to buy a new suit. Did You Know... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ...Siddig El Fadil was originally considered to be Commander Sisko after the producers viewed "A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia"? However, after the producers found that Siddig was only 24, he was instead cast as Dr. Julian Bashier. ...The current ruler of the Sudan is Brigadier Omar Hassam Ahmen Bashir, an Islamic fundamental fanatic who took over in June, 1989 in a military coup and has been in charge of a reign of terror since. To top things off, the ruler is a distant relative to Siddig (unconfirmed that he's Siddig's uncle-in-law). No, Siddig does not like him. ...The pilot episode cost $12 million. ...In "If Wishes Were Horses", there was originally supposed to be a leprechaun, but Colm Meany objected, saying that it stereotyped O'Brien as the typical Irishman. So the script was rewritten to have Rumpelstiltskin instead. ...Armin Shimerman and Max Grodenchik were the final candidates for the role of Quark. Max got the role of Rom. If Max had got the role, Armin would have been Rom. ...Morn used to be called the Grinch among the crew. ..."The Homecoming", "The Circle", and "The Siege", portraying the fictional political struggle on Bajor, was uplinked and aired at the same time Boris Yeltzin had his political struggle with the Russian Parliment. ...For the "Way Of The Warrior" episode, Mike Okuda called ERTL and placed an order for a dozen Bird of Preys and Klingon cruisers, which were then blown up during the episode. In-Jokes and References ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 4. "A Man Alone" - When Odo checks a monitor for information regarding the Bajoran criminal, one of the names that appears on the monitor is Robert della Santina, Unit Production Manager. 5. "Babel" - When Kira calls up some medical records, she finds the name "Surmak Ren", a slight corruption of Ron Surma, Star Trek's casting director. When a detailed biography was called up, the names "Surmak Hoek" and "Surmak Stimpson" (Ren and Stimpy). Also, Surmak Ren was employed at "The Akira Advanced Genetics Research Facility, Bajor". (Akira) 11. "The Nagus" - Rom gets chewed out for putting the Hoek's next to another race. (Ren and Stimpy) 24. "Invasive Procedures" - In a conversation between Verad Dax and Sisko, there was a mention of the cliffs of Bole. This is thanks to Cliff Bole, a frequent director of TNG and DSN, as well as several episodes of MacGyver. Background -========- Ren and Stimpy is a cult favorite cartoon that airs on Nickelodeon. The animation studio is located at 5625 Melrose Ave., right near Paramount. Operation SNAFU ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Opening Credits - During the opening credit sequence, we see a comet passing by. The tail should be pointed away from the sun, however, when the camera passes through the tail, we don't see the sun. The Trill Makeup - The production crew screwed up with the makeup of the Trill. In the TNG episode, "The Host", Odan is seen with a V-shaped nose ridge. However, this ridge is missing on Dax. In addition, the crew added on the "leapard" spots, which ware used on Kamala in "The Perfect Mate". The change was due to the producers not liking the prostetics on Terry Farrell. 1. "Emissary" - When the station sustains a couple of hits from the Cardassians, there's a scene of what look to be metal girders falling on people on a walkway. In the next scene, someone is hurtling through the air lands on one of the girders -- and crushes it flat. (UV) 2. "Past Prologue" - On the Runabout that Kira and Tana were on, they got into an argument and Tana pulled one of 2 phasers off of the wall. Yet when Sisko captured the Runabout, both of the phasers were gone. (UV) 10. "Move Along Home" - In the TNG episode "The First Duty", Picard emphasized to Wesley that the first duty of a Starfleet officer was to the truth. Yet, in this episode, Sisko says that the first duty of a Starfleet officer was first contact. 13. "Battle Lines" - When the roundabout gets shaken around, the front shot shows Sisko sitting beside the religious leader. The side shot shows her behind him. (UV) Did you notice how the doctor stated that upon entry of the atmosphere that the Runabout hull reached a temperature of 1500 degrees Celcius? Yet, when he got out of the shuttle a couple of minutes later everyone touched the side of the hull? Ouch! (UV) 17. "The Forsaken" - Odo and Lwaxana are stuckk in Turbolift 7. Later in the episode Sisko's station log says that they are stuck in Turbolift 4. (UV) Odo's cycle is 16 hours, though it was given earlier (in "A Man Alone") as 18 hours. Must be due to the 26-hour days there. ;-) (UV) 18. "Dramatis Personae" - The two other Bajorans mutinying with Kira. First, both are wearing grey uniforms. In the next shot, one is still wearing grey but the other is wearing a *tan* uniform like Odo's. (UV) When Sisko and O'Brien got to Airlock 4, they were without their comm badges, which they had discarded earlier. After Odo told everyone to grab on to something and opened the airlock, Sisko had his comm badge on. Then in the next scene cut back to him, he was again without his badge. (UV) When Odo opened the cargo bay airlock the air was blowing into his face even though he was facing the airlock. Seems like everyone else had the air blowing at their face regardless of which way they were facing. Air should have been rushing *out*. (UV) 21. "The Homecoming" - Kira's earring disappears for a minute, then reappears. 22. "The Homecoming"/"The Circle" - In "The Homecoming", O'Brien says that he can only beam up two people at a time. Yet, in "The Circle", we see a whole group beaming down and up again. Hmmmm.... 34. "Whispers" - The fake O'Brien beams down without his Comm badge on. While it's not a SNAFU, how the heck was the fake O'Brien going to beam back up? 37. "Playing God" - In "Invasive Procedures", Verad states that only 1-in-10 candidates are chosen to be hosts... but in "Playing God", Arjin states that there are 5000 candidates every year, but only 300 symbiots... this works out to 1-in-16.6 - can't they count? (UV) 52. "The Abandoned" - When Bashir is administering the addictive drug (which is not named) to the Jem-Hadar he increases the dosage from 2 milligrams per minute to 3 cc's per minute, he implies that this is a small increase, but in reality this is 150,000% of the original dose. No wonder the that when Bashir asks the Jem-Hadar how he feels, his only response is; "Good". (UV) =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ Thanks to. . .
