The MOST Disliked Episode of The Animated Series - Final Part...

Farscape One

Admiral
Admiral
Here we have the winners and runners up of each season:

Season One: THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT
Wild Card: MUDD'S PASSION
Season Two: BEM
Wild Card: THE PIRATES OF ORION

So now it is time for the final part.

*RULES*

Give what you consider to be the best/your most favorite episode ONE point, and briefly explain WHY. Be sure to copy and paste the list with your point added. When an episode reaches 4 points, it is eliminated. Then a NEW round begins (in this thread) with the numbers restored to 0. Vote ONCE per round. And enjoy! :bolian:
 
I will start with "MUDD'S PASSION", simply because we get another episode of Harry Mudd. It's really the only redeeming factor.

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT - 0
MUDD'S PASSION - 1
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
Another point to "Mudd's Passion," because I did enjoy seeing Harry again, and he was nicely in character.

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT - 0
MUDD'S PASSION - 2
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
I pick AMBERGRIS ELEMENT because I really like the aqua shuttle

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT - 1
MUDD'S PASSION - 2
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
Another vote for Mudd’s Passion because of Harry.

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT- 1
MUDD’S PASSION - 3
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
I'll save Mudd's Passion. It's an episode concept that would probably have crashed and burned utterly with anyone else trying to pull that scam, but Harry's presence gives it that bit of charm it sorely needed.

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT- 0
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
Although it’s not a favorite, I don’t have any serious problems with The Ambergris Element. I’d say it’s better than the other two.

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT - 1
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
I'll vote for The Ambergris Element as well, as it's actually a quite interesting concept, and the only one of the final four episodes that could never be done in live-action, even if it gets let down somewhat by mediocre dialogue and the explanation of Kirk's and Spock's condition not being handled very well.

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT - 2
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
I will reluctantly give a point to "THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT". It was slightly less weak than the others.

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT - 3
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
I'll vote for The Ambergris Element as well, as it's actually a quite interesting concept, and the only one of the final four episodes that could never be done in live-action,

Fair point. I agree!

THE AMBERGRIS ELEMENT - 4
BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 0
 
I'll give the first point of this final round to The Pirates of Orion, as it's a fairly bland, but ultimately inoffensive episode. Bem tries to juggle too many different concepts, and between that and the unpleasant personality of the main guest character, ultimately collapses in on itself.

BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 1
 
The Pirates of Orion. It launched the career of a young Howard Weinstein, who ended up writing some pretty good Trek comics in the 90s. Plus, the title character in Bem is annoying.

BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 2
 
I will cast my vote for "THE PIRATES OF ORION". Both are weak episodes, but at least the title is better than an acronym for Bug Eyed Monster.

BEM - 0
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 3
 
BEM is far more memorable. The guy comes apart for goodness sake. I can't even remember what happens in THE PIRATES OF ORION. Something about an exploding backpack.

BEM - 1
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 3
 
The "Pirates of Orion" because it's got some cool space stuff.

BEM - 1
THE PIRATES OF ORION - 4
