Shades of Gray, because Data's gag at the end cracks me up every time:
"Sir, I do not believe you have the authority to promote me to Admiral" :rofl:

The Passenger's biggest flaw is Siddig's weird acting delivery. Otherwise it's just mediocre, not dreck like the rest of the list.

Profit and Lace - Made me laugh.
 
^ That kind of sex involves a sweaty (and I mean SWEATY!) woman bloated from eating beetles, two hours of foot rubbing, a few days of chemical bonding, hand pus and abnormal back growths. Even with Kes, I think I'll pass.

Extinction - again, it's average. Aside from it's awful placement within the Xindi Arc, I've never understood all the hate it gets.
 
Sorry to but in, but "Rascals", "Move Along Home", and "These Are the Voyages" didn't make the list? Hard to believe.
 
If I had my way, Move Along Home would be on the list twice. Someone found a reason to like it, somehow. ;)

The Passenger. Not so bad when compared to other DS9 Season One episodes, one of which shall remain nameless. More mediocre than really bad, although Siddig's acting probably ranks among the worst ever in the show's history. Still, even that can be entertaining.
 
I'll give The Passenger a save as well. To me, it's definitely one of the better ones of Season 1 of DS9.

Fair enough. I think The Passenger was my next most liked. Ill vote Catspaw again, though I think I'm fighting a losing battle.

"KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRK!" :eek: :lol:

Extinction - I never had a problem with this episode. Not as bad as all those TNG Prime Directive let-m-die episodes.
 
Well as we are scrapping underneath the barrel now,I closed my eyes and touched, the screen to cast my vote. Not scientif I know but DSN's "Ferangi Love Songs gets it.

Ferengi Love Songs makes me laugh when I'm in the right mood for it.
 
Oh my, now that the game has stopped, it seems like I have to vote to make it go (I mean... make it work!). I was trying to avoid it, since I can't think of any good episodes here... :)

OK... I''m voting for Ferengi Love Songs because... err.. it's funny... occasionally? Because others are even worse? Because the game needs to go on? :shrug:

Catspaw b/c Alternative Factor, Elogium, the Fight and Ferengi Love Songs are much worse.
 
Sorry to but in, but "Rascals", "Move Along Home", and "These Are the Voyages" didn't make the list? Hard to believe.

That's probably because those are only mediocre episodes, not bad ones.

And will somebody please explain why Code of Honor is hated? Granted, it's another example of a mediocre episode, but I've never understood why everybody hates it.

It has a certain charm that the others lack, even if it rife with plot holes.
