    I thought this was fun, Sfdebris listed his picks for the worse Star Trek movies and TV show epsidoes ever:

    http://www.sfdebris.com/videos/startrek/zworst.php

    The list is:

    6. Star Trek V
    5. Code of Honor
    4. Nemesis
    3. Profit and Lace
    2. Threshold
    1. A Night in Sickbay

    What do you think of this list?

    I definitely agree about "A Night in Sickbay" being the worst. Take a chainsaw to that episode already!! :devil:

    Can't disagree with any of those inclusions, but Spirit Folk, Turnabout Intruder snubbed.

    Sfdebris reviewed Turnabout Intruder, he disliked it, but didn't rank it as one of the worse.

    Worst episodes usually get a 0 out of 10, Turnabout Intruder got a 3 out of 10.

    Never understood the fascination with 'worst of' lists . . . :confused:.

    Did they even see SubRosa? I must admit I haven't seen the whole thing. I turned it off half-way through it was so stupid. I really think thats the worst TNG episode.

    A Night in Sickbay I missed the first half because in ENT I often miss the beginning of episodes in order to avoid the theme song but surprisingly I didn't see how bad it was. I think I wasn't watching closely enough or perhaps I missed the urination part.

    I'm going to look at his review of Spock's Brain to see why that missed the list. Though I'm guessing its for the same reason as Turnabout Intruder.

    I don't think "A Night in Sickbay" belongs on it.

    As far as that goes, neither does Star Trek V, nor (were I at all inclined to make a "worst of" list) would I put "Threshold" among the worst of the worst.

    Nemesis was a poor movie and a crappy way the end the TNG franchise but I never though it was as bad as most people make it out to be. Personally I'd rank it above Star Trek V, Generations and Insurrection.

    I think "A Night Sickbay" deserves it, because it made Jonathan Archer look like an insane idiot who was not worthy to command a star ship, which is really damaging a Star Trek TV show.

    I actually like STV and NEM, and although "Threshold" makes no sense, it's mindless B-movie fluff. My list would have a lot more tedious TNG episodes like "The Masterpiece Society" and "Imaginary Friend", the offensively bad treatment of depression in Voyager's "Extreme Risk", the worst episode ever "The Fight" and the worst movie would easily be Insurrection. There were a lot of tedious DS9 episodes too which would make the list if I could remember them.

    "A Night in Sickbay" was bizarre and made Archer out to be a complete idiot, but we already knew that from prior episodes. He gets better once the Xindi attack (as does everyone else, growing a third dimension). IMO the worst of ENT is "Fusion"

    He is sooooo wrong about Threshold. And Star Trek V. And at least 2/3 of ANIS.

    Really, it reads like a list of someone with no sense of humor. Pick the boring as crap ones, not the camp ones!

    I agree about Code of Honor, but The Omega Glory should have been there too.

    Angel one should be on the list that abortion of an episode is unbearable.

    Threshold is awful, but I go back and forth as to whether it is really worse than Favorite Son. Threshold is at least surprising.

    Threshold could be forgiven if it didn't have Paris abducting and making babies with Janeway. That's just so wrong. Its bad enough for B'Elanna but not poor Janeway. And thats the main reason it deserves to be bottom 5. I'm sorry.;)

    Don't you want Janeway to be a mother?

    What sane woman would want Paris to be the father of their child? B'Elanna doesn't count as she's insane and that's a part of her charm.

    I mean if there are 80 guys aboard Voyager he'd be the 80th on my list behind Neelix, the traitor guy, that murdering guy and even the losers on night shift.

    Don't tell me some people ship Janeway and Paris? :eek::eek::eek:

    :wtf:

    As for that video - it makes as much sense as the episode. And Paris' children will probably be good looking. But what if they had his personality?

    Try to watch this clip from the original series. It is so over the top. I'm giggling like a little girl watching this a second time.

    That third season, they just were going through the motions. The incredulous look on McCoy's face is priceless.
