Game The Most Disliked David Livingston Directed Episode

[Seven of Five]

Now we get to the not-so-great episodes, and it gets harder to choose. I guess Harbinger was decent with the argument between Major Hayes and Reed, and furthering the Trip/T'Pol plot.

VOY Season 2: "Non Sequitur"
VOY Season 5: "The Disease"
VOY Season 6: "Alice"
VOY Season 6: "Spirit Folk"
ENT Season 1: "Detained"
ENT Season 2: "Stigma"
ENT Season 2: "The Crossing"

 

[Sakonna]

Burn them! Burn them all!

Except "The Crossing", which I don't mind. It's nothing great, but it's fine. I can always get on board with a Trek Possession episode, even if it's "Lonely Among Us" or this or another one of the lesser possession outings.

VOY Season 2: "Non Sequitur"
VOY Season 5: "The Disease"
VOY Season 6: "Alice"
VOY Season 6: "Spirit Folk"
ENT Season 1: "Detained"
ENT Season 2: "Stigma"

VOY Season 6: "Alice"
Saving this one since liked the general concept, even though it wasn't the most original. I enjoyed some of the mysery and creepiness (mild though it was ) of this ep. It also gave maybe a bit of a deeper look into the psyche of Paris, or perhaos some of the emotional vulnerabilities that he is subject to.

VOY Season 5: "The Disease"
VOY Season 6: "Spirit Folk"
ENT Season 1: "Detained"
ENT Season 2: "Stigma"

 

[Farscape One]

"DETAINED" is no longer detained to this list.

It's always good seeing Dean Stockwell... THE TWILIGHT ZONE (1959), QUANTUM LEAP, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (2003), STARGATE SG-1.

And the episode is the better of what remains.

VOY Season 2: "Non Sequitur"
VOY Season 5: "The Disease"
VOY Season 6: "Spirit Folk"
ENT Season 2: "Stigma"

 

[Brennyren]

Again I'll save "Non Sequitur," and again it's for Robert Duncan McNeill's acting and the terrific interaction between alt-Paris and Harry. Paris-Kim was always the great Voyager bromance.

VOY Season 5: "The Disease"
VOY Season 6: "Spirit Folk"
ENT Season 2: "Stigma"

(Wow. Really, any of these would be worthy losers....)

 

[Sakonna]

I'll save "Stigma." I actually think the T'Pol A story is fine, it's that hideous Phlox/Feezal/Trip B story that drags it down. What an empty blank nothing of a character Feezal is, I feel so bad for that poor actress! But, if nothing else, I guess it was an occasion for Connor Trinneer to pull out his "I'm adorably uncomfortable!" bit, which he was great at.

VOY Season 5: "The Disease"
VOY Season 6: "Spirit Folk"

 

[Farscape One]

Okay, I'll finish this off. Tough choice, though.

Both episodes are bad. Really bad. I can't really save either based on story or plot.

So I will have to go with superficial reasons. I will save "THE DISEASE" because Musetta Vander is hot. Here, SG-1, BABYLON 5, HIGHLANDER... in all her appearances, she just comes alive, and looks so damn good.

"SPIRIT FOLK" is the 'winner' here.

 

[Sakonna]

Well, no one can argue with "Spirit Folk" being a deserving winner of any Most Disliked contest! I tried to rewatch the Fair Haven duology recently, just to refresh my memory on what it really is, but I can not make it past the teaser of "Fair Haven." TERRIBLE.

Thanks for playing all! I think we'll do another director next, let's just go down to the next-most-prolific: "The Most Disliked Winrich Kolbe Directed Episode" Going up later today, hope to see you all there!

Meanwhile, Voyager and Enterprise again tied, 8 wins each!

A worthy winner indeed. Spirit Folk is terrible, and the whole Fair Haven story needs wiping from the database.

^^^Yes, but you have to have made a certain number of posts before the system will let you do it. I'm guessing you're not there yet, but you should be before long.

Many Thx.
