    Okay Trek fans, "least disliked" has concluded, and now it's time for the opposite. The basic idea is your standard elimination game. I'll provide a list of the episodes for each season and you need to eliminate your favorite or the one you deem the 'best.' Please provide an EXPLANATION for why you are eliminating your choice and be sure to copy and paste the list with your choice removed. Finally, leave at least 2 eliminations by other posters before you play again. Pretty simple. Enjoy! :bolian:

    Shattered is my first save. Great way to do the time-travel and retrospective concepts in a unique way. Good stuff all around.

    There's honestly not that many episodes this season I'd care to save at all. :-\ The Void was pretty good though, if a bit rushed, and overly idealistic.

    The Void, one of the few good episodes of the mostly awful last season.

    Honestly, I'm going with Endgame. It wasn't the best finale, nor the best VOY episode, but if nothing else it was an appropriate ending that had all the elements that made Voyager Voyager - for better or worse.

    Unimatrix Zero Part II. Looking at the episode list reminded me of how subpar this season was across the board once "Shattered" and "The Void" were removed. UM0. Decent season premiere, certainly better than "Equinox, Part II". "Endgame" would have been better had it evolved from the Borg rebels introduced in UM0 II instead of time travelling Janeway from the future.

    My next S7 save will be Flesh and Blood (I), a superb start to an excellent 2-parter. One of the Doc's finest serious episodes with some good action and great follow-up to previous Hirogen episodes.

    Body and Soul is a lot of fun - I love watching Jeri Ryan ham it up.

    Prophecy - A Voyager Klingon show! And, a good one to boot. Love seeing a D7 and the crew battling Klingons. And, I even have to laugh at the Neelix/Klingon Lady subplot.

    I'll save Author, Author, one of my favourites from this season. It apes Measure of a Man somewhat, but its heart is in the right place. The scenes at the start in the Doc's, and then Tom's holo-programmes are hilarious!

    Saving Repentance. An often overlooked episode that nicely demonstrates that VGR was trying to have something more profound to say and do than action-adventure in its final season.

    The Tom/B'Elanna stuff was good in Drive, but the sideplot with Harry was stupid. :)

    I'm gonna save Workforce Part 1. I enjoyed it a lot - it was interesting see the crew without their memories on the planet. Equally compelling was the shipboard plot - the ECH was a good callback to Tinker, Tenor, and it was good to see underused cast members being used in good roles.

    - A great finish to an excellent two-parter. Good action, Doctor moments, love the ending and just a great episode.

    Despite the ludicrousness of stumbling upon a Talaxian colony, Homestead provided a nice and almost touching sendoff for Neelix.

    Renaissance Man - a very good Doctor episode. It's a shame they decided to completely ignore the fact that he declared his love for Seven in the next episode.

    Many people come down hard on Repression, but I enjoy it even if it isn't the greatest episode. It has a unique way to bring back the Maquis/Starfleet conflict--alien mind control! I love the bits with the 3D glasses too.
