Star Trek, "Tomorrow Is Yesterday".
TOS "Whom Gods Destroy"
Marta with her green body makeup and then lit by green lights during her dance scene. That green looked yummy.
TOS "Let This be Your Last Battlefield"
Cheron is in an uncharted area of the galaxy. But they know where it is. What? And then it turns out to be very near Arianis, a major port along the spacelanes. WTF?

DS9, Invasive Procedures.
I always find Trill episodes interesting. One thing that's always bugged me about this one is Bashir's complicity in performing a life-ending surgery on Jadzia. It reminded me of the trolley problem, in the sense that if Bashir refused to perform the procedure to remove Dax, and the mercenaries killed the hostages they'd taken, morally speaking he'd be much more 'in the clear' because he isn't pulling the trigger. By cutting Dax out of Jadzia there is figurative (and literal) blood on his hands and he's much more morally accountable for his actions as he's directly responsible for her death.
I cannot see an ethical doctor doing such a thing under any circumstances - imagine if it was a real world example, like "cut out this heathy person's liver or I'll kill five children". I don't think most doctors would. "Do no harm" is their highest principle.
I think this aspect of the plot would be easily fixed if they'd brought along a Trill surgeon, with that surgeon performing the symbiont removal, perhaps leaving Jadzia bleeding on the table, while Bashir desperately patching her up while knowing it's futile.

DS9: "Sanctuary"
Timely. It's definitely a flawed ep, but that last speech from the refugee leader they're sending away...
"I think you've made a terrible mistake. All of you. Maybe we could have helped you. Maybe we could have helped each other. The Skreeans are farmers, Kira. You have a famine on your planet. Perhaps we could have made that peninsula bloom again. We'll never know, will we? Fifty years of Cardassian rule have made you all frightened and suspicious. I feel sorry for you. You were right. Bajor is not Kentanna."

TOS "Mark of Gideon"
Why bother making an exact replica of the Enterprise if you're going to reveal yourselves so quickly?
Why did Kirk buy into the apparent fact that he was still on board the Enterprise while Spock didn't? Had Kirk been drugged and we just don't realize it?
