Even the VOY Finals for 2025 had a better string of episodes than this... and that was a BAD list. I struggle on where to begin. And I'm likely going to struggle making a vote each time, too.

Seasons 1 and 2 are the third and second worst in the entire franchise, so it's hard to vote for them right now. Season 4 meandered so badly, and the ones from there are among the worst of that season, so I don't feel compelled to vote for them yet. The two from season 5: "Mirrors" was just a complete waste of an episode, and the finale was such a HUGE disappointment with its tacked on ending. Season 3 was the 'best' of this series, but even that had a terrible ending and reason for The Burn. So I can't even vote for the season 3 finale.

I guess that means my first vote for the Finals will be "Scavengers". Just because it ends up being the least worst of this bunch. (Rather damning with faint praise, I suppose.)

I'm going with The Galactic Barrier first.

Sure it was meandering around at that point of the season, but I like the whole Species 10-C plot more than the rest.

I think "Scavengers" is my favorite here. I almost saved it. It is not a special episode, but it is a very solid and reasonably satisfying one.

Im giving my vote to That Hope is You part 2. I loved season 3 and this was a great finale.

After 49 hours, "Scavengers" has timed out.

New round.

I have the same problems as before. But I guess "The Galactic Barrier" gets the vote this round.

Marginally less bad than the rest.

I'll also go with "Galactic Barrier." I think the A story, everything with the galactic barrier, is great.

The problem is that awful Tarka/Book B-story. For me the weakness of the season is like that three episode run of Tarka/Book idiocy, which this is a part of.

Fine my arm is twisted I'll eliminate Galactic Barrier. Season 4 is so good. Back to Hope for the next round.
