The least disliked episode 2021 - TNG Final Rounds

[Farscape One]

"Cause And Effect" is my vote this round. Despite the time loop plot being new at the time, time travel episodes are still headache inducing, though this was a fun episode.

Dark Page; it might be the best Lwaxana episode after "Half a Life", but I think it's still the weakest episode of this bunch.

[Seven of Five]

Dark Page is a very solid Lwaxana episode, with some lovely scenes with her and Deanna throughout. The scenes featuring the guest star staring at Lwaxana and Troi in that procedure are very corny., and they bring it down. It's gone.

I'll go with Conspiracy, both for it's unresolved cliffhanger and the way that Starfleet HQ underwhelmed as Starfleet HQ.

[Qonundrum]

I'm adding 1 to "The First Duty", as - of all the genre-blending episodes in the list, that one is the weakest. That, and I sense a conspiracy so I'm going to go eat a bucket of prawn slathered in tartar sauce .

I'm not voting, just saying....

Is this competition some kind of arsenal of freedom? What kind of cause and effect it might create? Is it our first duty to vote? What if it's all just a conspiracy? What episodes might end up on the lower decks? Is it a matter of honor to vote? If I voted would that make Data's day?

I told a recent trek fan friend of mine that I had just watched a TNG Q episode and he asked me: "Q Who?", when I explained it to him he said that that was "Yesterday's Enterprise" but I told him as much as I like modern Trek, I also like the old kind, actually "The Best Of Both Worlds" is what I like.

 

[Orphalesion]

Let's get rid of Conspiracy, it's really not that good of an episode and the parasites turned out completely pointless after the Borg were changed to be complete separate entities from them, leaving the cliff hanger to dangle forever without resolution.
And for the new round I give my vote for Cause and Effect, for the same reason I did earlier in the thread.

The Arsenal of Freedom now. The first season has its charms but even its best episodes aren't really very good.

Arsenal of Freedom is out, it really is kind of meh and I never liked the arrogant chief engineer of the week.

For the new round I vote A Matter of Honor gain.

Hard to argue with removing Arsenal of Freedom, I reckon it was only here because Season 1 was bad overall.

And hard to argue with removing Matter of Honour either.
