The most disliked episode of DS9 - Part One - Page 2

Seven of Five · September 13 2011, 04:30 PM

Q-Less
The Passenger
If Wishes Were Horses
The Forsaken

The Storyteller - because I enjoyed the first O'Brien/Bashir link-up, even if it was just average.

Admiral Shran · September 13 2011, 04:34 PM

Q-Less
The Passenger
The Forsaken

If Wishes Were Horses - I liked the two versions of Dax. And, it's better than Troi, Q or Siddig's weird acting.

Q-Less
The Passenger

The Forsaken had some nice moments. I like Lwaxana when she's toned down and vulnerable. Certainly better than the two episodes left.

Seven of Five · September 13 2011, 04:53 PM

The Passenger

Hmm, I guess I'll save Q-Less then. At least some of the Q humour was funny, even if it was misplaced. Wish they had done this on TNG really and left Q off DS9.

The Passenger wins/loses! Siddig's acting is terrible in this one, and is in my bottom four of the season. I would have had If Wishes Were Horses, Babel or Move Along Home be the outright stinker though.

Drat, missed the first round for my favorite show!

I would have had "Move Along Home" for the ultimate loser with "The Passenger" very likely right behind, personally.

Move Along Home got saved?!

That one competes against Profit and Lace for worst DS9 episode for me. Still, The Passenger is also pretty awful. I cracked up at Siddig's acting, which I suspect wasn't the intended effect.

Jeff O'Connor · September 13 2011, 08:57 PM

I'm in agreement with you, actually. Although I would put "Move Along Home" at flat bottom. I despise it more than the less frequently-maligned"Second Sight", the oft-loathed "Let He Who Is Without Sin" and the routinely-hated "Profit and Lace". Collectively the four worst episodes as far as I'm concerned.

But those TNG rounds taught me to expect the unexpected.

I'm glad that "Move Along Home" got saved. It's really one of my favorite DS9 episodes. It's very Trek-ish (first contact, new aliens), and has what I wanted DS9 to be more of (either Gamma Quadrant exploration and/or aliens of the week coming to the station). It's got style, humor, action and is just good. I know my opinion's in the minority, but there you go.

Jeff O'Connor · September 14 2011, 01:36 AM

Hey, I don't agree with you in the least but I respect just about any opinion. I'm happy for you.

TrekAlliance92 · September 14 2011, 01:43 AM

Thanks, Jeff O'Connor!

Nice that we can agree to disagree. (And, I am also sure we agree on some episodes--good or bad, as well.)

Have to agree with Jeff on that count.

I also agree with you but Move Along Home was just so poorly executed on all fronts, what could have been an interesting premise was just destroyed.

So I agree to agree with both of you does that make me the winner?

Jeff O'Connor · September 14 2011, 03:59 AM

Absolutely.

If everyone had the same opinion life would be boring! How many episodes of DS9 were there? Somewhere round 170?
