Rank the Q episodes....

Emperor-Tiberius

John DeLancie's Q is such a remarkable character. I'm sure a lot of fans, love the episodes he's in, even if they may not the best of the best of the whole. Nevertheless, we enjoy them for what they are, most certainly: Fun.

I thought we could rank the Q episodes, from best to worst. Shall we?

Here's the Q episodes:

"Encounter at Farpoint
"Hide and Q"
"Q Who"
"Deja Q"
"Qpid"
"True Q"
"Q-Less"
"Tapestry"
"All Good Things..."
"Death Wish"
"The Q and the Grey"
"Q2"

NOTE: Now, this is a bit delicate: I consider Trelane from TOS, a Q. I fully support the theory that he is as described in beautiful detail in "Q-Squared". If any of you see Trelane as Q, you can also add the following episode to you Best-To-Worst list of Q episodes:

"The Squire of Gothos"

I know I will, and I would like who follows Trelane-as-Q to do so, too. Anyone who doesn't follow the theory, its fine. :)

Well?
 
"Tapestry"
"Death Wish"
"All Good Things..."
"Deja Q"
"Q Who"
"True Q"
"Hide and Q"
"Qpid"
"Q-Less"
"The Q and the Grey"
"Q2"
"Encounter at Farpoint
 
From best to worst:

"Tapestry"
"Death Wish"
"QWho"
"All Good Things..."
"Hide and Q"
"Encounter at Farpoint"
"TrueQ"
"DejaQ"
"Q2"
"The Q and the Grey"
"QPid"
"Q-Less" (I remember seeing this one, but I don't what it was about)
 
"Q Who"; Introduction of the Borg.
"All Good Things...": Terrific finale.
"Tapestry": Q as God.
"Death Wish": A look at life in the continuum.
"Deja Q": Q-man.
"Q-Less": Sisko decks Q.
"The Squire of Gothos": I woulda won.
"Qpid": I am NOT a merry man!

Bleah:
"True Q"
"Hide and Q"
"The Q and the Grey"
"Q2"
 
"All Good Things..."
"The Squire of Gothos"
"Tapestry"
"Deja Q"

"Deja Q"
"All Good Things..."
"Hide and Q"
"Encounter at Farpoint"
"Tapestry"
"Qpid"
"True Q"
"Death Wish"
"The Q and the Grey"
"Q-Less"
"Q2"
 
"Tapestry"
"Q Who"
"Deja Q"
"All Good Things"
"Q-Less"
"Q-Pid"
"Encounter at Farpoint"
"Death Wish"
"The Q and the Grey"
"Q2"
"Hide and Q"
"True Q"
 
Well, here's my list, from Best to Worst:

Excellent
"All Good Things..."
"Tapestry"
"Q Who"
"Deja Q"
"The Squire of Gothos"

Very good
"Encounter at Farpoint"
"Qpid"

Good
"Q-Less"

Still fun
"True Q"
"Hide and Q"
"Death Wish"

Thank God DeLancie made these watcheable enough
"The Q and the Grey"
"Q2"

Must say, very pleased to see some posters rooting Trelane as a Q. I watched an interview of DeLancie's on Season 7 DVD, and he left it implied that Trelane is considered Q by him, both by manner and by attitude. I liked that moment! :)
 
Good:
"Tapestry" (Welcome to syndication, Jean Luc)
"All Good Things..." (If only Q had stopped TNG movies from being made)
"Q Who" (If only Q knew Starfleet already knew about the Borg)

Mediocre:
"Deja Q"
"True Q" (Crusher as a dog)
"Hide and Q" (hey, Wesley gets bayonetted! Plus Riker becomes more of an asshole :lol:)
"Death Wish"

Bad:
"Q-Less" (Q and Vash on DS9 felt like a Love Boat episode)
"Qpid" (Fun but ultimately fan-wankish)
"The Q and the Grey" (the continuum as represented by Earth history...zzzz)
"Q2" (Suzie Plakson reprise a role! NEVER! Well, that one time...)
"Encounter at Farpoint" (We Q Judge humanity lame! YOU ARE STUPID MINDS! *Troi cries*)
