My vote goes to "PRIME FACTORS". The Sikarians were very forgettable, despite the episode being pretty good.

I'm voting for Night. An interesting idea to see Janeway struggling with how she stranded her crew, but it randomly comes at the start of season 5. Surely this sort of guilt should have manifested itself already by that point?

The Malon were a dull enemy as well.

I'll vote for Prime Factors. Good for the first season, but really not as good or memorable as the others here.

[Brennyren]

^^^ Agreed. I'll vote for "Night" as well. A captain who can't handle peace and quiet -- who only thrives when there's a crisis -- is a little worrying. Her officers didn't do the best job of managing the situation either. When Neelix is the one who makes the most sense (his suggestion of using the time for cross-training was actually pretty good), well, wow. Not good.

[JirinPanthosa]

Voting Prime Factors. Not the worst episode, but one of those "We found a way to get us h--nevermind" episodes. And really rushed through the major theme of frustration over being unwilling to compromise to get home for one episode with no fallout or repercussions.

I'll go with Prime Factors here as well... I liked this ep (especially the interaction between Gath and Janeway), but it's not as memorable (imo) as the other finalists...

I will revote for Night this round...

(I have one clear favorite on this list, but I feel certain it's going to go fast. Curious if that prediction ends up being right...)

I am casting my vote for "FLESH AND BLOOD Part II". A good episode, but not quite as memorable as the others on this list.

[BigDaveX]

I'll throw in a vote for Flesh and Blood II, as the holograms' transition to being vengeful and murderous in the second half seemed a little too sudden to be believable.

[Sakonna]

I should probably hop on this Flesh And Blood II bandwagon, seems like there's no fighting it being the next to go. But... it's just not my least favorite. And I must respect the integrity of the rules!

Now that Night is finished off, I'm gonna vote for Projections next. It's a fun ep, but at the end of the day it's another Weird Trek Hallucination Head Trip. Which can be wonderful, but all the rest of these just have a little more heft for me, they're about something more substantial, they have more clever or unique premises.

[JirinPanthosa]

I'll also vote Projections. It's a fun ep but one of those that's entertaining but doesn't logically track. For me the ones not in the 'really good' or better category left are Projections and State of Flux, so close vote for me.
