The Least Disliked Episode 2025 - LD Final Rounds

[BlueStuff]

Here we have the winners and runners-up of each season - and now, it's time for the final rounds.

*RULES*

Give what you consider to be the worst/your least favourite episode ONE point, and briefly explain WHY. Be sure to copy and paste the list with your point added. When an episode reaches 4 points, it is eliminated. Then a NEW round begins (in this thread) with the numbers restored to 0. Vote ONCE per round. If 48 hours without a vote passes, the episode currently leading in points will be eliminated, and a new round will begin. And enjoy!

This may genuinely be the hardest Finals round to start voting on this year. These are ALL just great episodes.

I guess I'll vote for "Envoys" this round. Really only because it's the earliest produced one of the group. (And of the 3 or 4 episodes I might have voted for first.)

I thought that if I stared at the list long enough it would be easier, this was not the case. Originally this episodes relies heavily on the mysteries of Mariner, it is enhanced by later seasons revealing she's a little older than Boimler and a Dominion War veteran and everything but if we take out it's later contextualising Mariner was a bit all over the place in the early episodes. They're still fantastic and the rounds are only going to get harder.

"Crisis Point 2: Paradoxus" weakest here in my opinion. I think it compares poorly to the original "Crisis Point: The Rise of Vindicta". I really did not enjoy Boimler's (or should I say Bucephalus Dagger's?) plot about searching for Ki-ty-ha. Still, not an easy choice by any means.

Oh, gods - this is so difficult! I've run through all of them in my head, and although the guest stars are out of this world (Garashir!! T'Pol!!!) Fissure Quest gets a vote from me as it doesn't feature enough of the Warp Core Four

(+

T'Lyn). It also feels incomplete as it really needs The New Next Generation to finish it off.

I wish I could line up behind something that already has votes, but the truth is "The Stars At Night" is my least favorite here. It is great, but it is a notably less satisfying finale than "No Small Parts" and "First First Contact." Part of the problem is what it's picking up - I can't totally buy the plot points that get Mariner off the ship the previous week, so following through on that is clunky.
