The MOST Disliked Episode of ENTERPRISE - Season Two...

[Farscape One]

This is a twist on a game that is played here, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I am very curious to see the results.

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, wait six hours and 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!

I am torn between "MINEFIELD", with the great pace and character development, and "DEAD STOP", with it's great story and horror vibe.

I will go ahead and start with "DEAD STOP". Roxann Dawson, again, does a great directing job. If no one saves "MINEFIELD" in six hours, that will be my next save.

MINEFIELD is definitely the best episode in a season that has many, many clunkers in it. Plus we get to know my all-time favorite Star Trek villains... The Romulans!!. throughout the ages, they did all kinds of treacherous and very bad things. They try to blow up the Ent-D after being rescued by it! The first contact of Voyager with the federation after four years of separation is with a ship full of federation people massacred by ROMULANS! These ##### weren't even at war with the federation at the time. No people have shown itself to be so deceitful and pernicious.

I deleted Cogenitor, for the appearance of Andreas Katsulas as well as the allegory.

If I were a gambler I'd put my money on Precious Cargo to win this round.

SHOCKWAVE, PART II about the only decent episode in another-wise filler season.

The Catwalk was the first episode I saw from Enterprise. Unfortunately, it was a horrible remake of The Lights Of Zetar.

I am saving "THE EXPANSE". It was a good season finale. It was a great setup for season 3, while finally getting rid of the Duras arc.

I am pulling FUTURE TENSE out. Love the mystery feel of the episode and the THOLIANS!

I am saving REGENERATION, it was good seeing the borg in action one more time, even for the wrong reasons. I love how the borg failed to introduce themselves! It was so contrived as to be funny.

First Flight. Some good backstory for Archer, a nice guest performance by Keith Carradine... and really, it's the only remaining episode on this list that I genuinely enjoy.

I always liked "The Communicator" because it reminded me of the coda of "A Piece of the Action"; we got to see what happened as a result of tech being left behind.

Though a bit formulaic MARAUDERS has the redeeming quality of showing some fun hand-to-hand action, though I'd like to know what would prevent the Klingon from coming back later, kill everyone in sight and take the deuterium to boot, now that they know what's going on?

I found Stigma interesting, if a tad obvious and outdated as an allegory.

I will save "CEASE FIRE" because it had Shran, which I think was his only appearance this season.

I'll save JUDGMENT because of the Klingon-style trial and the reference to Rura Penthe. The ending is laughably unbelievable though.

So they just walk in and take Archer and whoever else wants to go with them? Right!

Horizon. It has its problems to be sure, but I'll give it credit for being one of the few episodes that actually gave Mayweather any real character development.

I won't reveal it until the end but there's one episode among those remaining that I think qualifies as mental torture... for the viewer that is.

Only one? Personally, I'd say there's at least four episodes which fall under that category!
