The Least Disliked Romance-Of-The-Week

[Prax]

Haven has been vaccinated. This episode is ******* nuts. Wyatt is a shy nice boy, very humble, who covers his temporary quarters in pictures of some woman, then he's a jerk to Riker. Riker is first seen with a huge sex-crazed grin, while he sits in his quarters staring at a small hologram of two ladies playing a harp. After that, he is moaping around the whole rest of the episode. He suddenly gets up and storms out of the room several times, possibly every scene he's in. He's acting like a petulant child(which we'll see again in later seasons). He expects Troi to just wait for him for years(which she apparently is going to do just that).
Wyatt and his mystery girl have been magically dreaming of each other for decades with no explanation.

Oh, and Troi refers to Riker as "Bill," which never happens again!

Time to vote again eh? I'm cutting Elaan of Troyius. So many problems with this episode. One, it's just TOS retelling The Taming of the Shrew. Two, that play - and this episode - is just deeply misogynistic garbage. A strong, yet "conniving" woman is berated by Kirk, and ultimately forced to marry someone against her will because - hey, Kirk has a job to do. And the "love story" aspect is just because she drugs Kirk with her date-rape tears. Triple squick.

“11001001” does not compute for me. Riker and Picard, to varying degrees, both fall in love with a holographic woman. That weirded me out even back then; the fact that Riker and Picard weren't the last doesn't make me feel any better.

It's been over four hours, so I can vote again. I'm eliminating For The World Is Hollow And I Have Touched The Sky. It's a hell of a name, and it's great that McCoy for once got to have "an episode" and a love interest. That said, it's not a particularly good episode, with McCoy and Natira going from meet-cute to head over heels in five second with no in-story explanation. Also, there are enough other elements to the story (McCoy's terminal illness, the generation ship no one knows they're on, etc) that it's not a straight-ahead romance of the week episode.

We'll always have Paris has stood us up. In this episode, Beverly gets super jealous at the idea that Picard may not remain available. Like Troi, she's just been waiting around for the man she loves to make a move. And like Troi, she waited over 7 years.

Removing "Counterpoint." It's a good episode, with a twisty, gripping plot. But when Janeway looks like she's seriously attracted to a guy who's pretty much a straight-up Nazi, I can't say I think much of her taste.

"Loud As A Whisper", a well intentioned episode that doesn't achieve lift-off. The plot is just so thin, there is not a lot of meat to this story.

Excellent disintegration effects when the chorus is killed, though! And Marina Sirtis, as always, does great work with weak material.

Okay, my choie for the AM is Darkling. Kes's romance in this episode is utterly forgettable - save for that amazing "I've just been fucked" look she gives when she transports back up. The episode is really about the "evil" doctor character, thus I don't think it qualifies well as a romance of the week.

EMISSARY goes. I don't see this as a Romance of the Week at all. It's a pilot. Plus, Jennifer was Sisko's WIFE, and they had a SON together... hardly a Romance of the week.

TOS, Season 1: "What Are Little Girls Made Of?". Star Trek was never good with robots, especially the TOS stories, and this is no exception. To give an example most disagree with me on, Data, the first time I saw him I didn't know he was supposed to be an android (I watched the episode not knowing what it was, except that it looked like sci. fi.) I thought he was some weird idiot-savant (maybe autistic) with some idiosyncrasies, like painting his face yellow... I was surprised to learn that he was an android.
