What was the worst Star Trek: Voyager episode?
Im sure there is a long list, but get to the ones that are absolutely horrid, even by Berman standards.


Like the Warp 10 one ("Threshold")... Jesus H. Christ! :argh::argh::argh::nuke::nuke:


Ohh and that silly Demon planet one, :freak: :nuke:

1. The one where Janeway
and what's-his-name turned into alien lizards, mated, and had a baby lizard.

6. A more apt question would be
Edited on Sat Nov-13-04 06:43 PM by khephra
what is the best Voyager episode? That list would be shorter.

Actually, there were a few that centered on The Doctor that I liked.

10. the best?
hmmm....i could name all of them but i can't choose between them
(damn i need to buy the sessions...)

maybe the one where Tom is in the holodeck and they go into flakey old shows and it goes out of controll...

heck if i know,i watched too many of them.


ooh i think i know the worse!

Harry falls in love with this alien and they make love without the doctors permission and they get seperated...that 1 pretty much covers it

22. Anything with Neelix in it for more than 2 seconds
Best Episodes - anything where Chakotay took his uniform off.

9. I don't know.
Voyager never really got my attention. So there were a very select few that I really liked, and a good number that sucked. The original series was great. Next Gen was excellent. DS9 was excellent. I am actually liking Enterprise more. It seems to be getting better.

11. Did you see the Spiner episodes?
I was only able to catch the first one, but it seemed pretty good.

Although I think they sort of re-configured the Eugenic Wars timeline to make it fit.

20. Those were really good.
IMHO. They may have been among the best episodes I have seen from Enterprise.

13. God, I hated that show. Worst ep: "Aliens" rip-off w/Janeway as Ripley
The episode, I believe was called "Macrocosm." A sweaty, gritty Janeway hunts deadly aliens solo in a sleeveless t-shirt while loaded down with grenades and rifles and shit.

16. Are you serious?
I have a hard time picturing that! That's funny.

Well, Starship Mine was like Die Hard in space.

18. Spirit Folk was by far even stupider than Threshold.
Yet at that point, we were so accustomed to the stupidity from Voyager we didn't recognize it for the appalling piece of crap it was.

Sorry, but the whole concept of putting the ship into danger in order to save non-existant people on the holodeck is beyond bizarre.

And worse, the holodeck itself does the most bizarre thing when it creates a literary paradox: One of the holopeople shoots his holographic gun and the blast hits the wall at which people the computer happily states "Warning - Holodeck Safety Protocols Are Now Offline" due the damage done to the hologrid by the non-existant bullets that shouldn't be able to disable ANYTHING while the safety protocols were online.

Bleh....bleh....bleh....puke.

Spirit Folk is the equivalent of rushing into a burning house to save your current game of The Sims.

Puke...bad...

21. The problem with Voyager
...was that it had it's own self destruct mechanism built into the sub-plot. Eventually they were going to have to get home,right? End of show. Who wants watch a bunch of whiny Star Fleet types whine about going home and being homesick all the time? They should have gotten to the Delta quadrant and said "Damn, were out here in the Delta quadrant, let's do some explorin'!" But noooooo... they had to get home. Enterprise will fail in the same way. They are basically working inside the confines of a box as do all prequels. I still like 'Voyager' and 'Enterprise' though, just because I am a huge fan of the genre. It's funny when you see sub-plots totally fall apart, like what just happened with Enterprise and the Xindi threat. They just got tired of that B.S. and solved the issue at the end of the season. I think some writers got fired as well. Another example of this was the "Year of Hell" episode in Voyager when they built up to it and mentioned it in a few episodes prior to the event and what you thought was going to be a season long drama turned into a two-part series special, lame.
