[Farscape One]

I will start this round by giving a point to "IN THE FLESH". Despite the crazy odds of Voyager finding this place to begin with, it was a solid, tense Cold War episode. The briefing room negotiations were really well acted and written. Nick Sagan's first script for the series does NOT belong on this list.

It really a hard choice as there isn't any episode here that I like, though for different reasons. I'll give one point to retrospect for its (clumsy attempt) at addressing the problem of harassment and sometimes false accusations, resulting in lives being destroyed.

Season One: EX POST FACTO
Wild Card: THE CLOUD
Season Two: TATTOO
Wild Card: ELOGIUM
Season Three: FAVORITE SON
Wild Card: SACRED GROUND
Season Four: UNFORGETTABLE
Wild Card: RETROSPECT 1
Season Five: THE DISEASE
Wild Card: IN THE FLESH
Season Six: SPIRIT FOLK
Wild Card: FAIR HAVEN
Season Seven: REPRESSION
Wild Card: NATURAL LAW

And let me say that this series' end list has been, with very few exceptions, completely unexpected.

I have to say, I honestly don't know which one will take the 'prize'. This series' game might be my favorite one so far in terms of unexpectedness. And it has gone by so FAST. I can't wait to see who 'wins'.

No good episodes here, but The Cloud is okay. And it gave us everyone's favorite Voyager quote. Coffee! In the nebula!

I don't really want to vote for any of these episodes. I guess I'll help out The Cloud; it's reasonable, nothing too offensive, and features in the subheading of this forum.

The Cloud gets a point from me... I liked the animal guides and the nebula was pretty cool & trippy.

Were you expecting them to be worse or better?

That there were three lightning fast votes. List fixed.

How did you do it?

I can't edit my posts, for some reason.

The Cloud is now the first episode to be saved. Voyager did the "giant unexplained phenomena is actually a life-form" plot more times than I can count, but I'll give this one credit for doing it first, and some solid dialogue.

There's a little edit button at the bottom near the timestamp/delete/report buttons

I seem to be missing both the delete and the edit buttons. Maybe it's an added feature when you reach a certain seniority.

Retrospect for me... 7 got to deal with remorse and it was moderately thought-provoking overall as an ep.

Retrospect isn't really that bad an episode. It's saved, votes reset.

I'll give my vote to Repression then, if only for a rare opportunity of seeing the Maquis in action (even if it's for the wrong reasons).

Good first two saves, those are the exact two I would have wanted to save first.

This is going to be an interesting round to play. In the TNG and DS9 final parts, I really had a hierarchy in my mind, I could instantly arrange those episodes in a personal "best to worst" list and every ep got it's own rank.

But with this list of Voyager installments, I don't have a hierarchy, I just have two piles. 5 titles here make my pile of "Deserving Winners" and the rest just go in "Mediocre, But OK, Worth Saving."

"Repression" is in the latter pile, so I'll start with that! It's dumb, but fun. I like it as a Tuvok showcase.
