  • Father’s Day is nigh, so it’s time to explore the heartbreakingly powerful Season 4 episode THE VISITOR from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Avery Brooks, Cirroc Lofton, and Tony Todd made this one of the greatest Treks of them all, a true gem that will never be forgotten. Welcome back to SYFY WIRE’s Warp Factor: Classic Blend. The Sisko is of Bajor... and he’s coming home.

    I cry every time I watch this episode, especially now after I lost my Dad. The most emotionally packed episode in Trek history and still my favorite. A small quiet episode that packs a huge punch in the gut.

    This is my dad's favorite episode of this series. Impeccable writing. One of Tony Todd's best, if not his best, performances ever.

    This is one of DS9 most powerful and emotionally charged episodes of the entire series,its always been one of my top fav episodes of all time,great performances all around.

      Agreed. Spot on

    By far the best and most emotional DS9 episodes.

    I don’t think any episode of Trek ever hurt me as badly as this episode did.

    I am obsessed with this show, it smashes ALL my nerd buttons.

    The Visitor and obviously In The Pale Moonlight are 2 of the best written episodes of any tv series ever. I'm a massive TNG fan but hold the aforementioned DS9 episodes along the best of TNG. I remember back at university showing my friend In The Pale Moonlight and by the end he was instantly converted to Star Trek. Still a fan to this day.

    Deep Space Nine made me a better person.....
    I know I'm not the only one that feels that way. This show was everything to me when I was kid!! #loveit

      You are not by any means the only one who feels this way. This is magic.

    Star Trek: Sisko! Yes please.

      Maybe in the mirror universe, Kurtzman's empire doesn't exist and I too would be excited about the prospect of this!
      Seeing the Picard legacy reduced to a forgettable shart is bad enough....

  • @cosminmihu9963

    This is the only episode from every Star trek series that actually made me tear up.

  • @windsonma8209
    @windsonma8209 Před 4 lety +5

    Every time that I watch this Episode I always think that it is Great Episode to watch around Father's Day, just because it is one of the best Jack Ben Sisko Father Son Episodes on DS9

  • @liamh1621
    @liamh1621 Před 4 lety +4

    The dedication in Jake's book always reminds me of Futurama when Fry realises that his brother didn't steal his name, but gave it to his son "to carry on his spirit". Hits hard

  • @gixnla
    @gixnla Před 3 lety +3

    I saw this episode for the first time yesterday and I'm still shaking

    Just saw this episode the other day! So Amazing. Truly Brilliant.

    I'm on another run through DS9 just now and hit The Visitor. Absolutely destroys me everytime.

  • @j.r.walden9937

    Saw this episode for the 1st time last week and.......yep...this grown man cried like a baby

  • @Redshirt434
    @Redshirt434 Před 3 lety +1

    My hat's off to Nog....and I mean it too. By the era of the All Good Things uniforms, he's a Captain, with presumably a ship and crew of his own, yet out of loyalty to his childhood friend, he pulls an old ship out of drydock and rounds plump the old DS9 crew, and of course Dax would go, Sisko is her beloved old friend, and Bashir clearly had that much respect for Captain Sisko to tag along as well.

    With the lost of my father, this episode 😢

  • @procc.
    @procc. Před rokem

    Now watching DS9 for the first time, and this episode was the most touching so far.

  • @ginajeani

    I saw this episode the other day and fell in 💘 all over again. Just brilliant!

    • @dmmarrero1
      @dmmarrero1 Před 4 lety

      The writer of this episode had to experience a lost. The bond between the two made me recall the relationship with my own father and my now son. Black people in the future.. got to love it.

    DS9 has been my favorite Star Trek series series since it premiered, and The Visitor is my favorite episode.

    Is that THE baseball from DS9? The one signed by everyone? I tweeted at Ira asking what happened to it!

  • @toshitoshi9441

    For me, The Visitor is the best episode.

  • @vitaliybalin8301
    @vitaliybalin8301 Před 4 lety

    Star Trek Deep Space Nine's episode The Visitor shows that no bond is greater than that of a child and his or her parents. There is no higher bond I have than that which I have with my parents. I cried the most watching this episode than I did any other Star Trek episode.

    Jake Sisko has no bed! 😂

    😏 Nice superman reference... This episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine always gets me so moved, almost brings a tear to my eye 😢. The sacrifice that Jake made to save his father was just extremely moving.

  • @thomashill6347
    @thomashill6347 Před 4 lety +1

    It was a great episode and I like DS9 is was different as Star Trek BUT still very much Star Trek, I enjoy all the characters and when the Ferengi are in episode I really enjoy it. Uhura HAILING FREQUENCIES OPEN spotlight YES!!. I still would like your insight on the Andorian commander and Archer's enemy/ friend relationship.

      I love Shran. He’s my favorite part of that series. Jeffrey Combs never fails.

    Will you be doing the TOS episode "The Omega Glory" for your July 4 show?

    Nail on the head! DS9 is the best.
