Game The Most Disliked Episode/Movie Directed By A Trek Actor

Sakonna · Apr 1, 2023

THE OBJECTIVE: A sudden-death elimination game in which we remove our personal favorite episodes/movies from a themed list, until we arrive at the episode that is, if not the worst, at least the most disliked.

THE RULES: Below is the every episode/movie directed by a Star Trek actor. It includes TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT, DIS, ST, PIC, and SNW - everything live action.

Eliminate/save your favorite, or the one you deem the ‘best.’
Post something you love about the episode you are saving, and copy-and-paste the list with your choice removed.

You can use any standard you like to judge which option is "best." You can save episodes for being widely recognized “best Trek” classics, or for idiosyncratic qualities that no one appreciates but you.

As you get down the list, you might have to reach more and more for something to love about an episode, and it's OK to eventually save episodes for being "less bad" if there's nothing left you truly love.

But -- no tactical voting! You cannot remove an episode because you don’t think anyone else will, or because you feel it would threaten your preferred episode's chance to “win.”

You can take multiple turns. Leave at least 2 eliminations by other posters before you eliminate another episode.

New players are always welcome, you do not have to already be a "most disliked game" regular to dive in.

Much thanks to @Farscape One for helping me vet the list.

Enjoy!

A treasure trove of great episodes! I'm curious to see which director (not one-offs) gets eliminated first. (I have a feeling between two of them.)

It's suitably spooky:

TNG Season 7: "Phantasms" (Patrick Stewart)

Patrick Stewart's direction had some pretty nifty moments.

What is it with Data going bonkers in turbo lifts?! He was having more fun with Worf in one, anyway...

(Contraction alert!)

With mint frosting!

Riker: Will somebody answer that damn ringing?
Crusher: Well, it's not tinnitus.
Riker: Well, that sucks.

I could save like 80 of these! What a lineup.

I also like how Famously Terrible episodes also seem a bit over-represented. I could be wrong about that, but this does kind of feel like a list of extremes.

I guess I'll go with "Assimilation" next. I also just watched that one, and I also rewatch it all the time. The trip back to contemporary Earth is a favorite Trek trope of mine, and I thought they did a great job with it in this arrival segment.

I lived in LA for awhile, and I really see it as the utter hell on earth that PIC S2 depicts it as, so I felt very in sync with where they took this.

"I never understood how a society with so many contradictions didn't collapse earlier than it did."

And all the Jurati/Borg Queen stuff is great! I can't believe that arc worked, conceptually it really shouldn't have. They wrote it perfectly and those actresses gave such home run performances.

Wow! This is a much longer list than I thought it would be.
As many awesome/fantastic episodes as there are, it's my favourite film that I'm saving first: "Star Trek III: The Search For Spock" (Leonard Nimoy). I'd seen a handful of TOS episodes and most of TWOK (on TV, so some bits were cut/edited out), but it was TSFS that really caught my attention because it showed the world that the Enterprise crew inhabited. Just amazing! :adore:

I noticed that I missed one of my favourite Trek movies, The Voyage Home. I was obsessed with the TOS films when I was younger, and was a fan of them and TOS before getting a whiff of the rest of the franchise. The movie's message still works all these years later, and the comradery between the characters was something else.

Saving "LIVING WITNESS".

Damn shame this was Tim Russ' only directed episode.

Excellent script, acting, and directing. Great lesson on revisionist history. And the cast clearly had a ball playing their evil versions.

Continuing my saves for the episodes I have just seen... Last night, I was trying to pick an episode from this list to watch, and there were so many great options I felt like my brain was going to explode.

Then I realized it was a dark and stormy night, so the only choice was "Sub Rosa."

Frakes could make even the worst of sdur drek watchable, but:

TNG Season 5: "Cause And Effect" (Jonathan Frakes)

Braga takes a new twist on the sci-fi trope of "stuck in a time loop" and does a one-up on it. At the same time, said shiny new trope runs the risk of being boring. In actuality, it's only until act 3 when the boredom factor creeps in -- but that's when the real clues start to form. Frakes definitely manages to juggle quite an act (all of them are!). It's well-written, well-acted, very well-directed, and say what about Ensign Fletcher helping someone else who's fallen but can't get up? It's the worst in-joke ever, except Trek is poking at a poorly made advert. In fact, here it is:

Oh, the marvels of 1990s technology...

I never understood the "humor" of mocking the content or actors, who don't look like 20-somethings caked in make-up, but for Gen-X'ers of a certain fresh and firm age, that advert was apparently all the rage.

Thank you ensign Fletcher!

Bonus clip:
(and I prefer the hair from "Half a Life" over that timeless "Cereal bowl" look... which is sad, nerds wore it in 1990 and all the cool kids wear it in 2020. Yay. Did I just digress? Yup. I need my 4th cup of coffee - one moment... )

I also need to learn how to sit in a chair like Riker. That is legitimately cool.

So I'm finishing "Sub Rosa" now, having fallen asleep while watching it last night (as many times as I've seen this one, I always forget just how hammy Quint is), and trying to pick my next save using the "which of these would I want to watch next?" method.

And I think it's gonna be... "People Of Earth." I am so psyched by the news that Starfleet Academy got picked up and will be set in the 32nd Century, which is a setting I love. It's where Discovery always wanted to be, that show struggled so much initially due to being a prequel that had no real interest in being a prequel, but once they got to the future it all clicked.

Seven of Five said:
The Quickening is a beautifully shot episode, and it's a good one for Bashir to be taken down a peg or two. He really did go a long way after his arrogance in the first season.

I love how perfectly "The Quickening" tracks with the eventual revelations of Bashir's genetic engineering -- that's why he's so convinced he can solve this genetically engineered virus, that's why it gets under his skin to a unique degree. On rewatch you can add that whole other layer of bottled-up emotional turmoil to his experience here.

Damn, maybe I want to watch "The Quickening" next. (Just remembered the "Disease Episode" list I was working on in early March 2020, that got put in a drawer and never played. Still too soon. Maybe next cycle)

@Qonunundum I often wondered if there were any outtakes from TNG's filming because of Frake's positioning when the officers were working.

I'll rescue the one TOS episode on the list, Charlie X next. The lower decks fun with Uhura and Spock is perfect, and the impetuous godlike teen Charlie being thought how to act by Kirk is funny when it comes to talking about women.

Focusing again on direction first, script second:

TOS Feature: "Star Trek V: The Final Frontier" (William Shatner)

is surprisingly good. Yes, there are script problems - most of these have more to do with the comedy as insistent by the studio thanks to the success of "The Voyage Home", only this time "fish out of water" isn't going to work.

That said, there are a number of well-directed scenes that stand out. The movie could have been more if (a) the studio did not demand more comedy thrown in (Doohan arguably got the worst of it with that infamous head bang scene) and if there was some script editing to refine some of the ideas. There is a great story, but what we got was a mixed bag that clearly was trying to be more despite it all.

The lighting, acting and staging - a very well directed scene indeed. It's a highlight of the script as well.

Another very robust scene, well-acted and directed. The music is the icing on the cake.

Admiral Hanson was God alright - I love it when it reveals its true self, which occurs just after this clip ends and I was unfortunately unable to find that reveal, with dialogue that's sharper than a hundred Klingon bat'leths. Again, focus on the direction, camerawork, and lighting. It's top notch. I also feel the movie was written around Kirk's key catchphrase.

A nice melancholy coda.

There are numerous deleted scenes worth seeking out; sometimes the acting isn't perfect, but they add so much valuable context TO the movie, giving weight to - among other scenes and concepts - the ideas behind Nimbus III. Proper worldbuilding instead of a mere outline that the released product is stuck with. I wish Shatner would be able to do a director's cut, trimming the stupider aspects where possible and re-integrating cut material. We can't time travel to 1989, nor can we to 1979 regarding Donner's Superman II as he'd intended, but we could get a more stout glimpse. What was filmed and left on the cutting room floor definitely adds more weight than Chekov and Sulu, our navigator and helmsman, being lost in a freakin' forest.

Found the not-the-god reveal. Not sure of the portrait mode aspect, but it's another of the scenes that try hard to rise above the "less effective" scenes.

Yes, the science is stupider than a thousand stupid things, but TNG: "Genesis" (Gates McFadden) is creepy (lighting, direction, hideous Barclay-spider) and funny (Picard-on-his-way-to-marmosetville backing up in the turbolift and almost having an anxiety attack* upon hearing "Worf").

* Speaking from experience, anxiety attacks themselves are certainly NOT funny.

@Qonunundum I often wondered if there were any outtakes from TNG's filming because of Frake's positioning when the officers were working.

I'll rescue the one TOS episode on the list, Charlie X next. The lower decks fun with Uhura and Spock is perfect, and the impetuous godlike teen Charlie being thought how to act by Kirk is funny when it comes to talking about women.

Charlie X is definitely "Twight Zone in Space" but in an effective and original way.

Didn't find any outtakes:

And I suspect, for the following, the guy's real voice would be a tad better than the chalkboard-worthy computer voice:
