Game The Most Disliked Second Season Episode

"Friday's Child" was an early favorite of mine, Back in the Day, and though in some ways it shows its age, it's a favorite still. My man McCoy plays a substantial role in the story, Kirk and Spock get to show off their wits, and -- holy crap! -- we have Julie Newmar as the featured guest, and she is totally believable as a queen.

I don't often save VOY epsiodes, but I just have to save "Maneuvers" because of the amazing Chakotay-Seska dynamic. It's such a shame Robert Beltran wasn't given more to do because I find him really engaging and charasmatic when he's getting his teeth into the role.

"Basics, Part I" because I like Suder, and it's one of few instances where the Kazon felt like an actual threat. Plus, that final scene with the Voyager taking off, with her crew stranded on the surface of the planet is quite good.

Blood Oath has the amazing trio of Kor, Koloth, and Kang, and I should have saved it sooner. The conversation between Jadzia and Kira about whether they had killed anyone was a solemn moment. The look Kira gave to Jadzia on her return without any words was brilliant too.

Saving "COGENITOR".

Love it or not, it's still debated hotly 20 years after it first aired. On that basis alone, it's a classic.

This one might be a surprise, but "Horizon" is next on my list, for being a decent Mayweather episode, an exploration of freighter life, and T'Pol's first exposure to Frankenstein.

"Point Of Light" OH MY GOD that discussion on comms between Burnham and Tyler, where the locations start bleeding into each other. One of Trek's best scenes.

It is such a shame they fucked that couple up by getting confused about who/what Tyler was. Their chemistry was incredible.

This ep also does an incredible job of repairing the shambles the Klingon narrative was left in at the end of the first season.

There's nothing outrageous about this one:

TNG: "The Dauphin"​

so-so when I first saw it, the "coming of age" story for Wesley, discussing conflict of duty versus screwing important diplomatic relations by getting jiggy, the neat treknobabble device that can rip iron out of the bloodstream*, one of the more interesting adversaries Worf got, great acting, and so on, and all without making Wesley the magic do-all be-all of the universe, it grew on me rather well. Now if only I was a teeniebopper again... or maybe not...

Saving "Pen Pals".

I would be remiss if I did not save at least one Data episode.

It's a good one, despite the quibbles.

The exercise in management skill-building with Wesley was definitely worthy of some praise.

Also,a couple other scenes of piquancy are worthy of mention:

IMHO, Geordi, Pulaski, Troi, and Data rule, though Picard had a couple interesting points. Worf is just a heartless meanie, with a line that would have been said by Pulaski if this episode were from the first or second episode. In an ironic twist of fate, Data's bluntness to the captain is the most empathic and soulful of the entire group. To top it off, Pulaski - otherwise incessantly debating Data's stake as a sentient being - siding with him is more poignant here than in any other episode because he understands, and it's huge. Bigger than detaching robot arms and fingering his on/off switch. The episode has its faults, but what succeeded was far more impressive. IMHO, of course.

Prior to that was:

Note that Picard asks distinctly if the species is aware of interstellar life - this is crucial as, generally, the prime directive uses this as a qualifier. Also, Data's antics throughout the episode suggest he should be court-martialed for disobeying orders and preparing cheval stew without a license, but it's all good...
 
It brought us the wonderful K'Ehleyr. Reason enough to save "The Emissary."

I can't believe it's taken me until now to save a DS9 episode, but the "The Circle" deserves to be saved for this line from Vedek Winn to Kira alone: "Feel free to stay as many days as you'd like... even a week if necessary."

I always enjoy the tension in the mystery when rewatching The Collaborator. Winn is the perfect adversary to DS9, with the amazing Louise Fletcher.

Right off to bed.
