The day season two went crashing into the rocks!

Finished "When the Bough Breaks". I had a thought: If the Aldeans were sterile, they didn't need to take other parents' kids. They could've just adopted children. The ending when the little girl gave Picard the flower and stuffed toy made me cringe when I was an actual kid. It doesn't make me cringe as much now that I'm an uncle.
Putting on "Home Soil".

If I remember right, I thought Martin-Green did a really good job on her end. Playing up the emotion of a child finding out their parent wasn't really dead. But the rest of the episode, and pretty much the season, was ass.
I don't say this lightly. "Home Soil" almost put me to sleep several times. Oh, God. I liked it better when it was "The Devil in the Dark".
I know I'm supposed to say "Code of Honor" or "Justice" was the worst episode of the season. One was racist, the other was ridiculous. But no. Those aren't my least favorite of the season. It's "Home Soil".

I am watching TNG all the way through for the first time. Currently in season 7 and want to finish before Picard airs.
But I just hit 'Sub Rosa'.
Good gosh, it was baaaaaadddd. In fact I was rooting for the bloody ghost in the end shows how terribly written it was.
I feel like taking a long break now LOL (But if I managed to get through the worst of season 1 and 2, I should be okay... I think...)

Ive always liked that episode and the whole Ugly Bags of Mostly Water. I do agree though, Devil in the Dark was done a heck of a lot better (it’s my favorite episode of the original).
"Coming of Age" (TNG)
Commander Remmick. What can I say? At first he comes across like a prick, but he's got a good head on his shoulders... It would be a shame if something ever happened to it.

Resistance - I forgot how emotional this episode was. I remember when I first joined this board people talked glowingly about this episode but I never really understood why. Watching it a few years after I watched it last, I think it's a wonderful statement on mental illness and how they too are heroes. The ending scene when Janeway really does adopt the role of Calem's daughter actually did make me tear up. She let him die with honor and dignity. That made this entire episode worth it.
Prototype - Eh, this episode was ok. I loved the Data name drop though.
Alliances - Another in the Kazon storyline is really like. I think of all the episodes that advanced this arc, this one was my favorite (Even though I do love Basics as well) because we really got some wonderful backstory and found out how much A-holes the Trabe were. Also this was the episode that started the whole Michael Jonas story, but I wonder what was the first episode we got a hint of Paris being insubordinate.

Threshold - This a rewatch to celebrate 25 years of Voyager, good and bad. I would say for about 19 minutes of this 45 minute run time (18 at the beginning and 1 at the end) there was a good episode in there. There was a sense of adventure breaking the Warp 10 barrier, there was some character development about Tom learning to respect himself despite other people already changing their opinions about him, and there was that bit where Tom wanted to be known not as the maquis traitor but as someone who made history to the benefit of others. Then minute 19 of this episode happened, and it became what we all know it became. It sunk the episode, and I really do wonder if Braga was in a drunken stupor when he got to Minute 19 and wanted to do his "trademark" storytelling. At least he admitted this episode was Garbage, something I've actually always admired him for.
There is one good thing about the most of this episode though. A few years ago I was listening to a Voyager podcast and this was the episode where the term "Lizard Babies" was born. They got quite a lot of mileage out of that one.

Yes, "Sub Rosa" is bad but it's nothing compared to inept works like "Code Of Honor" or "Justice". I only watch these for completion, I just hate to do something partway.
At least Justice had a lot of half naked eye candy with terrible 80s wigs! 'll
Yes, there are a few things that they didn't tell us about that planet. Did you see anyone that was even middle-aged on that so-called planet? Looks like they have a ritual like in Logan's Run (IMO, a terrible movie that for some odd reason got an undeserved success).
Heroes and Demons - Voyager
Hail and greetings, one dimensional Viking caricatures! The holodeck is going wrong, and we're not even one season in yet.
Cathexis - Voyager
Despite the scientific nonsense of the premise, this one is pretty good. A classic alien among us plot with a twist. I kind of enjoy everyone phasering each other too.
Almost forgotten Neelix is in this thing at this point. They have no idea what to do with him.

DSC Re-watch on BR Disk Continues:
"Saints of Imperfection" (More memorable than I remember....but all the weird visuals and constant loud sounds are like an assault on my senses...and not a necessarily welcome one)
"Sound of Thunder" (Great episode...love the introduction of the Ba'ul...love the return to Saru's homeworld. Good old-fashioned Trek problem solving as they try to uncover what is happening on Kaminar. Negative is that this is the precise moment where the concept of the Red Angel started to go against my hopes. "Oh...!! It's a person in a suit!!"
)
"Light and Shadows" (Feels like a transition episode...not bad, just not as engaging as some of the others)

"Samaritan Snare": We're supposed to believe that a bunch of retards are capable of stealing technology all around without being blown to pieces? These people shouldn't get past the invention of the wheel, let alone being in space or are we dumber than them? We're still not in possession of starships, need I remind anyone? Looks like they hired a Packled to write this script...
"Up The Long Ladder":
"Send in the clones"... They actually made that joke!!
Clone murder and very bad Irish clichés...
I'd like to meet the guy who thought that that was a winning combination!!
"The Emissary"
It's good that they made her only a half Klingon it would have been a shame to deform the face of the lovely Suzie Plakson with fangs. She manages to be sexy even with the Klingon forehead which is no small exploit!
