I can't watch If Wishes Were Horses w/out crying

I was hoping you were going to say you couldn't watch without crying because of how bad it is. Thank you for not disappointing me.

I tend to think that "Move Along Home" is the worst DS9 episode ever, but this one is a close second. About the only good thing we get from this episode is Captain Sisko's baseball, which remains on his desk for the rest of the series.

I agree. MAH is the worst DS9 and Top Ten, very close to Spock Drain...er...Brain.
 
One thing about Spock's Brain, though, I kind of think it's in the "so bad it's good" category. It's just so unintentionally hilarious. "Brain and brain. What is brain?" HAH! I crack up every time. Epically bad, man. EPICALLY bad!
 
Tears of boredom mostly. I always found the part where Sisko talks to the aliens memorable though. It kind of reminds me of Dramatis Personae for all the weird stuff going on, but I liked that one a lot more.
 
I kind of liked it, especially Julian's "Trill Love Slave". I'll agree that "Move along Home" was really, really bad.
 
Eh, it's not very good, but it doesn't elicit seething hatred from me. I also think Move Along Home is pretty fun.

Profit and Lace, on the other hand. :klingon:

I actually enjoyed "If Wishes were horses", I was able to get to know some of the characters even more during the process of these aliens pretending to be figments of the characters imagination. "Move Along Home" is probably one of the worst, DS9 episodes.

I do wish the species in IWWH were featured in another follow up episode as hinted.
