The Most Disliked Episode of DISCO, Season 2 - 2025 Edition...

Farscape One

Welcome to our bi-yearly 'Most Disliked Episode' games! Now that the 'Least Disliked Episode' games hosted by BlueStuff (who inspired me to create these games, so thank you very much for paving the way) have concluded, we can begin the opposite side of that coin.

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 most favorite or the one you deem the 'best.' 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 because you feel they would threaten your preferred episode's chance to win. Pretty simple. Enjoy!

"Perpetual Infinity"
"Through the Valley of Shadows"
"Such Sweet Sorrow I"
"Such Sweet Sorrow II"
 
Season 2... honestly, this was such a terrible, mess of a season, far worse than season 1. In fact, I viewed this as the worst season in the entire franchise... until PICARD season 2 happened. But there were a few good things here, like adding Anson Mount as Captain Pike. He made the season at least... somewhat tolerable.

So it will be no surprise that my first vote for this season is "Through the Valley of Shadows". Pike truly shines here, knowing what his fate will be and accepting it for a greater good. The words he said to himself were why he won me over as a good captain.

"You're a Starfleet captain. You believe in service, sacrifice, compassion… and love."

The man is a hero.


"Brother"
"New Eden"
"Point of Light"
"An Obol for Charon"
"Saints of Imperfection"
"The Sound of Thunder"
"Light and Shadows"
"If Memory Serves"
"Project Daedalus"
"The Red Angel"
"Perpetual Infinity"
"Such Sweet Sorrow I"
"Such Sweet Sorrow II"
 
I really enjoyed the season apart from the conclusion of the Red Angel arc.

That said, I'm particularly fond of Such Sweet Sorrow II.

Just enjoyed the images of the suit streaking though the stars. The battle was pretty epic as well.

Brother"
"New Eden"
"Point of Light"
"An Obol for Charon"
"Saints of Imperfection"
"The Sound of Thunder"
"Light and Shadows"
"If Memory Serves"
"Project Daedalus"
"The Red Angel"
"Perpetual Infinity"
"Such Sweet Sorrow I"
 
I'm going to add to that and save the first half of the finale.

"Brother"
"New Eden"
"Point of Light"
"An Obol for Charon"
"Saints of Imperfection"
"The Sound of Thunder"
"Light and Shadows"
"If Memory Serves"
"Project Daedalus"
"The Red Angel"
"Perpetual Infinity"
 
Saving "New Eden".

Best episode of the season, which is extremely easy to do given how bad the whole season was.



"Brother"
"Point of Light"
"An Obol for Charon"
"Saints of Imperfection"
"The Sound of Thunder"
"Light and Shadows"
"If Memory Serves"
"Project Daedalus"
"The Red Angel"
"Perpetual Infinity"
 
I think "Point Of Light" is quite underrated. This is a banger of an episode. All the plot threads are satisfying. They do an incredible amount of rehab work on the mistakes of the first season, as well.

Ah, Discovery. I love it, but no Trek show has had to spend more time cleaning up its own mistakes.

"Brother"
"An Obol for Charon"
"Saints of Imperfection"
"The Sound of Thunder"
"Light and Shadows"
"If Memory Serves"
"Project Daedalus"
"The Red Angel"
"Perpetual Infinity"
 
By the Prophets, this season is really slim pickings.

I'll save "Project Daedalus" because I really liked Airiam, and was sad she was killed off.

At least she got some focus here.


"Brother"
"An Obol for Charon"
"Saints of Imperfection"
"The Sound of Thunder"
"Light and Shadows"
"The Red Angel"
"Perpetual Infinity"
