@darkeny Actually I don't have many favorites that exist as two-part episodes in Trek - "The Menagerie" was a flimsy pretext to use previously-shot footage from the pilot, just as "Unification" was made to sell Star Trek VI. I like "Time's Arrow" but not as a season finale. I like "Chain of Command". "Redemption"…

Did somebody say "ret-con"? Because that would be my vote. Seriously sick of the word and the concept.

More like II>First Contact>IV>Nemesis>V>VI>III>I>Generations

@alurin - There is no "built-in" audience for anything, regardless of whether you spawn a fan franchise, those fans can simply choose not to see a movie. That's why you have production people going out and selling movies to theater owners and chains at conventions like SHOWEST. The original franchise movies didn't…

often-wrong's got a broken heart…can't even tell his boys apart

Agreed…Tomalak would have been a much more effective villian than dipshit Sela - perhaps it was because he was the one-armed man in "The Fugitive", but he does such a great sniveling prick performance.

Ugh…
Ugh, this one … using Nimoy's cooperation in this bloated, unnecessary two-parter in exchange for an on-screen plug of Star Trek VI was probably the show's lowest point in a storied, uneven seven year run. Because Nimoy was a producer and received story credit for Star Trek VI, he, no doubt, pressured Paramount…

Damn fool, I knew you were gonna say that!

"Beer Bad" works because of the overall campy vibe of "Buffy" but Star Trek tries to take itself seriously so when we get these unusual episodes, it tears away at the inner logic and brings up nothing but confusion at character motivation and questions as to their actions.

Jeez - I'm gonna be charitable 'cuz last week when I said "Rascals" was the worst episode ever, I got my ass gang-raped. Ow! Still hurts like a mo-fo.

Unoriginal - most of the time when there is a pregnancy written into a show (or a movie), it, more often than not, ends with a hysterical delivery scene usually involving somebody who shouldn't have his ridged forehead near ANY woman's vagina - or something to that effect.

Love how O'Brien and Troi are techno-babbling away and all Troi can say is "What are you talking about?" and "I don't know. What do you think we should do?"

"That's what she said."

@Buttfuck - There's a lot more to life than jerking off into cakes (or cake flour, for that matter). Sunshine on your cheeks, whiskers on kittens and so forth.

Crusher masturbating with a lit candle is certainly memorable.

Hee-hee.

@ToddG - Now you can at least tell - if somebody's jerkin' it while using my name, you can't click on it, but you can click on mine. Sorry Ghost of Fake Names.

Disastrous…
This one plays a heckuva lot better than "The Game" but it's all assholes and elbows, Star Trek writers on acid coming up with a scenario that makes no sense - I mean the Troi bit, not anything else. That was all cute with Picard and the kids in the turbo shaft (I love how the writers break his leg so…

Christ was a werewolf…
"The Game" is one of those WTF episodes if ever there was one - similar plot improbability (as in the bullshit "Rascals" episode), we have the allegedly alert, bright, and able-bodied crew of the Enterprise thwarted by…wait for it…a fucking video game! As in "Rascals" they just weren't quick…

Hey you know what, you're right - I mean seriously if I don't have anything nice to say - in fact all of my comments should just read, "you're right", "hey man you're the best and you're right" or "oh I agree completely"; everybody should agree with everybody else. I'm all for heated debate as are many of the…
