DS9 is a bit like coffee. Some people don’t like it. Some people love it immediately. If you don’t like it and keep consuming it, chances are you’re going to develop a taste for it.
Terry Ferrell is consistently amazing in it. Sid is great, except when he’s phoning it in because he’s pissed with what the writer’s room did to his character. Avery Brooks is consistently overacting, but I think he does it in such a way that it works. René Auberjonois manages to bring incredible depth of character to his role. Nana Visitor was the perfect choice to play her character. She’s very believable. Colm Meaney absolutely nailed the nuance that is occasionally required for Chief O’Brien, my only complaint is that he has no chemistry with his on-screen wife (who appears less often as the show goes on.)
When Michael Dorn joined the show as Worf, it felt like they got things really right. It probably helps that Ronald D. Moore came onboard just before that, bringing storytelling improvements with him.
Armin Shimmerman, Andrew Robinson, Jeffrey Combs, Marc Alaimo are all show stealers when they appear.
I started rewatching it about a month ago and just made it into season 4, no regrets on the time spent.

Shoulda kept my own mouth shut, since you managed to convey the idea…
Ah but unlike coffee DS9 is actually pretty good.
