DS9"s 7 Best Love Stories & Romances Ranked

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was largely a show about the horrors of war and religious persecution, but it did manage to carve out a space for some of the franchise's most enduring romantic relationships. DS9 was set on the titular space station, now under Starfleet control after it was abandoned by the villainous Cardassians after their occupation of the peaceful planet Bajor ended. Commander Benjamin Sisko (Avery Brooks) takes command of the station after enduring personal trauma and doubts about his career in Starfleet, hoping to encourage the growth of a healthy post-war community on the station.
While the episodic nature of previous series like Star Trek: The Original Series and Star Trek: The Next Generation made portraying enduring romantic relationships tricky, DS9 was a darker, more serialized story, allowing relationships to grow and evolve over time in ways that were, at that point, unique to the franchise. Fans could track the flirtatious beginnings of relationships all the way to their sometimes tragic ends. DS9 has a reputation for being the darkest of Star Trek, but it never failed to give time and energy to love stories among all the chaos.
