The Least Disliked Episode - TAS Season 2

[BlueStuff]

Our addictive biyearly game of rapid elimination returns - now with more shows than ever. It's generally a lot of fun, providing a chance to mentally revisit those episodes you may not have thought about in a while. With that in mind, why not play again?

So, here's the game. The basic idea is your standard elimination game. I'll provide a list of the episodes for each season and you need to eliminate your least favourite or the one you deem the 'worst.' Please provide an EXPLANATION for why you are eliminating your choice and be sure to copy and paste the list with your choice removed. Finally, leave at least 2 eliminations by other posters before you eliminate another episode.

No tactical voting! You cannot remove an episode just because you feel it would threaten your preferred episode's chance to win. Pretty simple. Enjoy!

My apologies for the inconsistent thread titles - the fact that I left out 2023 from this one and can't edit it really bothers me.

I used to hate "Bem" the most, but then Lower Decks brought the Pandronians back and elevated them. So I'll off "The Practical Joker", which absolutely sets my teeth on edge. It is just a shrill episode.

Taking out "HOW SHARPER THAN A SERPENT'S TOOTH".

Cool idea, but I got a bit tired of godlike entities lording over humans.


The Pirates of Orion
Bem
Albatross
The Counter-Clock Incident

 

[Brennyren]

I used to hate "Bem" the most, but then Lower Decks brought the Pandronians back and elevated them.

I still hate 'em. Bye-bye, "Bem."

The Pirates of Orion
Albatross
The Counter-Clock Incident

 

[Sakonna]

"The Counter-Clock Incident" doesn't do much for me. I dunno what it is, unless it's "Unnatural Selection" I'm not into the aging-the-wrong-way trope.

The Pirates of Orion
Albatross

 

[Seven of Five]

Oh, I was the person who liked The Practical Joker and The Counter-Clock Incident.

I wasn't really as keen on the other two left, but I'll make Albatros the winner as I enjoyed the involvement of McCoy in the story.

Albatros wins!

 

[Sakonna]

I think "Albatross" is the stealth great TAS no one talks about, so I love this winner. I love the freaky aliens with their incredibly expressive square pupils and weird New York accents.
