The most disliked episode of Star Trek - Final Part

[BlueStuff]

Something a little different for the final round. To proceed as normal, it would be over very quickly indeed, so here we have the "winners" and runners up of each season:

Season One: The Alternative Factor
Wild Card: Miri
Season Two: Catspaw
Wild Card: Friday's Child
Season Three: Spock's Brain
Wild Card: And the Children Shall Lead

*RULES*

Give what you consider to be the best/your preferred episode ONE point, and briefly explain WHY. Be sure to copy and paste the list with your point added. When an episode reaches 5 points, it is eliminated (or saved in this case!) Then a NEW round begins (in this thread) with the numbers restored to 0. Vote ONCE per round. And enjoy!

I almost don't want to vote for any of these. I suppose that's to be expected when you have such a collection of turkeys as this. I'll give my point to Spock's Brain, as I've always felt it's not quite as irredeemable as people say. At least it's funny!

"Friday's Child" isn't a bad episode at all, certainly not as bad as "The Alternative Factor" or "And the Children Shall Lead".

I'd rather watch Spock's Brain than any of these.

At least Spock's Brain will make you laugh.

Agreed, Spock's Brain is so bad it's good. The rest are pretty awful episodes.

"Spock's Brain". Silly as hell > stupid.

Just watched this one. Not in the same (low) class as the other episodes.

I concur with Friday's Child. Not an episode I like by any means, but I'd watch it over any of the others.

"Friday's Child", the most watchable of the episodes remaining.

"Friday's Child" gets my vote. I don't think it is that great, but it doesn't belong on a list that includes "And the Children Shall Lead" and "The Alternative Factor."

"Friday's Child - 5", at least it had Julie Newmar.

I like the scene with the children and the ice cream, even if it is somewhat creepy (Melvin Belli's son's character is supposed to hate/be afraid of white?)

Miri - Not great, but I am not sure why it is on the list.

Oh boy. I'll go for Miri. Terrible is better than appalling in my ranking system!

Miri is Yoman Rand's last significant role.

It has some interesting ideas, not to mention the extremely surreal "Hodgkin's Law Of parallel Planetary Evolution" - if that was real, the universe would be even weirder than it seems...

Edit: I just realized there are four votes for "Miri" now. Feel free to prove me wrong if I read that incorrectly but BlueStuff also voted, so yeah.

"Miri"... a tad better.

I documented that right around the time you noticed, actually. Ah well, at least it's definitely counted now!

Just noticed and was about to mention it - thanks.
