It was the first Trek series not to take place on a starship, the first to be made without Gene Roddenberry's direct involvement, and the first to explore the darker side of the Star Trek universe. There was the country doctor (Bashir), the barkeep (Quark), the sheriff (Odo), the mayor (Sisko), the common man (O'Brien), and the Native American (Kira). The show took place on a space station at the edge of the galaxy, far away from Federation headquarters, where the final frontier was still being explored and the set-up was like a classic Western, complete with the classic archetypes. Six years into the run of The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine premiered.
