It's hard to choose between Year of Hell and Scorpion. I think Scorpion was better for all the reasons that would involve phrases like "great writing" and "well thought out". But I voted for Year of Hell because Janeway fixed the deflector while her head was on fire, and that's just too badass not to vote for.
Work Force. I just loved it.
I didn't realize Year of Hell was a two parter.
So I guess I have to change my vote.
Has this thread inspired anyone to watch a Double E?
An anorak is a type of polar fleece jacket in the parts of the world where people speak English properly.
Good?
Now pluralize it.
I can't take Annorax seriously because his name sounds like a bundle of sale items at a vintage clothing store.
I have avoided this thread because I thought it was about Sevens boobies.
Basics. Suder rules.

The Killing Game. Ah. In a way, I love it. In a way, it deeply annoys me. Think about it for a minute. What the Hirogen were doing to the crew - that was seriously messed up. Definitely in the top ten list of most frightening and seriously messed up things that aliens ever did in Star Trek. But the "feel" of the show was more like: "Ooooh, doesn't Janeway look cute dressed up like Lauren Bacall?" (Which she did, but that's not my point.) And then that strange out of nowhere ending. AND THEN no one ever mentioned it again! I mean, what? Think of the character episodes that could have followed, with the crew trying to recover physically and psychologically from their treatment at the hands of the Hirogen.
That's why I love The Killing Game - because it introduces interesting ideas that I can use my imagination to develop. That's also why I hate it - if I can imagine it, someone else can and they should have put it in the show.
Actually, I guess that sums up my opinion of 90% of Voyager episodes.
But, yeah, I still voted for Year of Hell and we all know why.
ETA: OH, yes, and The Killing Game also taught us that Janeway is too badass to bleed. She got shot in the thigh with a bullet, ran all over the ship and didn't get a drop of blood on the carpet. Bleeding is for wimps!!!!!!
