The best episode of TNG - Part Seven

Gambit (I)
Gambit (II)
Phantasms
Parallels
The Pegasus
Lower Decks
Genesis
Journey's End
Emergence
All Good Things...

I'm yanking out Eye Of The Beholder. This episode is just bizarre, uncomfortable, and doesn't seem to know wtf it's doing

Gambit (II)
Phantasms

Lower Decks
Genesis
Journey's End
All Good Things...

Getting rid of "Emergence". I find the episode rather bizarre and wan in its execution - it's basically just a technobabble problem with an uninspiring solution (it would be right at home in Voyager!;)) The only mildly compelling thing in it for me is the notion that the experiences of the crew would amount to something positive - but in the end it's a weird cgi geometrical shape... yeah.

Getting rid of Genesis. Another bizarre (Theme for the season maybe?) episode that kind of creeped me out.

I'll guess I'll get back into this game for the last season. I am getting rid of Journey's End- I actually like Wesley's character, but this is the weakest of the episodes left.
 
Gambit (I)
Phantasms
Parallels
The Pegasus
Lower Decks
All Good Things...

Removing Gambit (II). Overall it's a great two-parter, but I prefer part one to part two.

Removing "Phantasms" - well, I prefer the ones remaining to this one. *g*
 
I'm terminating "All Good Things...". A series so great and so popular should've had a better ending.

WOW. I can't believe All Good Things didn't win. I guess that's what's weird with this method. All it takes is one person...

I wasn't too crazy about "Dark Page", "Masks", "Genesis", and "Emergence" being terminated from the list, but hey, it's just a game.

Now if "All Good Things..." had a more epic plot with Picard, Q, and a massive Borg invasion or something like that, I probably would've let it stay
 
Well, The season has lost some major juice all of a sudden, but moving on

Parallels
The Pegasus
Lower Decks

I'm pulling Gambit 1. Riker can't let Picard go scenes. We've tread this turf in BoBW
 
Parallels
Lower Decks

Of those three, I'll take off "The Pegasus." It's a pretty solid episode, but nothing spectacular.
 
Lower Decks

I'll remove "Parallels" and give the season to "Lower Decks." I would have loved to see those characters some more.
 
So according to this go-round of the game we have:

Season One - The Arsenal of Freedom
Season Two - The Measure of a Man
Season Three - The Best of Both Worlds (I)
Season Four - The Wounded
Season Five - Ensign Ro
Season Six - Ship in a Bottle
Season Seven - Lower Decks

That's a very interesting list of favorite episode from each season. I know if we did this game again the list would probably be dramatically different but I actually do think this list is a good representation of what TNG had to offer. I know we all wish some episodes were there that are not, but this isn't that bad of a list.
 
Lower Decks

Good call. "Lower Decks" is my second-favourite of the season, after "All Good Things..."

So you liked Endgame?

A little.

I would've liked it even better if the woman in my avatar made an appearance!:p

I know we all wish some episodes were there that are not, but this isn't that bad of a list.

I wonder if the game would work if it gave people the chance to either add or subtract an episode from the list each turn. Probably would go on for quite a bit longer if we took that route, though.

An interesting list. I'm not thrilled by the choice of "The Arsenal of Freedom," but the first season is pretty weak. "The Measure of Man" and "The Best of Both Worlds, Part I" would probably be the top choice for those seasons if this was just a poll. The other choices are more esoteric, but good episodes nonetheless.
 
Lower Decks is a good choice for best episode of Season 7. A good representation of the season and the show as a whole. It was a great way to see the regular characters through other's eyes. And it's my favorite of the season actually:)
