Sealed video---------Star Trek : Deep Space Nine - Vol. 7.10 - Strange Bed Fellows / The Changing Face Of Evil? [1995] Editorial Reviews:   From the outset, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was about conflict. Producers Rick Berman and Michael Piller challenged the utopian ideals of Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek universe to create something totally different from its predecessors. That meant no familial camaraderie, squeaky-clean Federation diplomacy, or beige décor. Instead they wanted inter-personal friction, ruthless enemies (Gamma Quadrant Imperialists--The Dominion) and rebellion at every turn. The DS9 concept was originally facilitated by introducing the Cardassian/Bajoran war during The Next Generation's final days. After a muted first reception fans gradually came to accept the new look, but no-one liked Star Trek without a starship and eventually the producers capitulated to viewers' wishes by introducing the USS Defiant (an apt name) in Season 3. Relying far less on technobabble than TNG, DS9 was unafraid to focus on matters of the spirit instead, demonstrating a gutsy independence from its parent shows. Taking up the gauntlet thrown down by Babylon 5, improved CGI space battles also became a fan favourite. Throughout the increasingly serialised story arc there were rebellious factions within the different establishments: Kira had belonged to the Shakaar resistance cell; The Maquis was Starfleet vs Cardassians; Section 31 was a secret Starfleet group; The True Way was a Bajoran group opposed to peace; the Cardassians had their Obsidian Order and the Romulans their Gestapo-like Tal Shiar. Yet for all its constant bickering and espionage (even Bashir got to be James Bond!), there was always some contemporary social commentary lurking: the Ferengi were used as a comedic foil to frown on materialistic greed; drugs were looked at via the Jem'Hadar foot soldiers' addiction to Ketracel White. Perhaps Sisko summed up the real heart of things: "Bajor doesn't need a man, it needs a legend". A future vision that retains a place for religion and spirituality turned out to be Deep Space Nine's first best destiny. --Paul Tonks In 'Strange Bed Fellows' the emissary is in danger from a conspiracy and Worf and Ezir are sentenced to war crimes. In 'The Changing Face of Evil?' Kai-Winn and Gul Dukat decipher an ancient text... Custom Reviews:   DS9 at its all-time best! If you thought DS9 couldn't get any better, think again. This video is the best you can get, and it will shock you completely. "Strange Bedfellows" sees Ezri and Worf in dire trouble and sentenced to death on Cardassia, whilst the even better "the Changing Face of Evil" will have you thinking "wow" the whole way through. And I defy you not to feel heartbroken at the end of ths episode, as terrible things happen in battle, and Damar has an announcement to make... Miss this one at your peril! exciting, chilling and interesting a well acted and thought out DS9 episiode episode 1 'strange bedfellows' is a chilling and exciting episode where things start to look worse for the Federation and Kai Winn has problems of her own episode 2 'the changing face of evil' is one of the best in this final season including a spectacular battle scene,(I won't spoil the suprise!) while Kai Winn is sturing up trubble of her own. Overall one of the best episodes in the season a well thought and planned out episode, exciting and interesting.
