The Most Disliked Episode of TNG, 2023 Edition - Finals...

[Farscape One]

My vote this round is for "Birthright, Part II".

Same reasons as before.


"The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 0
"Aquiel" - 0
"Birthright, Part II" - 1
"Bloodlines" - 0

 

[Cyfa]

I'll do "Okona" again

~ Again?!? You lucky... Still, I'll save it (with the sound off)

"The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 0
"Aquiel" - 0
"Birthright, Part II" - 2
"Bloodlines" - 0

EDIT: Oops! I was too slow. But I don't know what to vote for?

EDIT 2: Oh, go on, @Farscape One - I'll give Birthright Part II a vote

 

[Sakonna]

"Bloodlines" is the least troublesome of these for me. The sheer wackiness of picking up that plot thread at this point in the narrative is worth something.

"The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 0
"Aquiel" - 0
"Birthright, Part II" - 2
"Bloodlines" - 1

 

[Brennyren]

"Galaxy's Child," again.

"The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 1
"Aquiel" - 0
"Birthright, Part II" - 2
"Bloodlines" - 1

 

[Oddish]

Ooooo, we're down in the Bottom 5. Everyone suppress your gag reflex. Aquiel again.

"The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 1
"Aquiel" - 1
"Birthright, Part II" - 2
"Bloodlines" - 1

 

[BlueStuff]

I’ll do Farscape a solid and go with Birthright finally. It’s not good at all but also not terrible.

“The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 1
"Aquiel" - 1
"Birthright, Part II" - 3
"Bloodlines" - 1

 

[CitadelZombies]

Saving "Birthright, Part II". It's fine.

“The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 0
"Aquiel" - 0
"Bloodlines" - 0

 

[BlueStuff]

Galaxy’s Child was in season 4, a great season!

That’s my reason.

“The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 1
"Aquiel" - 0
"Bloodlines" - 0

 

[Farscape One]

Cyfa, Bluestuff, and CitadelZombies... thanks guys, for saving me from making the same vote again! I feel loved.

(And Bluestuff... good rhyme!)

I am voting for "Galaxy's Child". Definitely the best of what's left, and certainly didn't deserve to get this far.


“The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 2
"Aquiel" - 0
"Bloodlines" - 0

 

[Sakonna]

"Bloodlines" again.

“The Price" - 0
"Galaxy's Child" - 2
"Aquiel" - 0
"Bloodlines" - 1

The Outrageous Okona is safe - but not because of Okona. No, it's just that it has a Data subplot - albeit a terrible one. Guinan's droid joke was heinously bad and she somehow insisted it was funny.

The Goldberg/Spiner double-act, other than the "You're a droid and I'm a pizza mascot" line, was pretty solid. Especially the ending.

I'm saving the warped Geordiperv episode that's complete with the NC17-looking space whale things. There's a good story in this one, even if what's shown is a mixed bag. "Put vinegar in baby's milk" wins me over every time with some unintended gen-X humor. So does when Worf exclaims how the creature is changing color and so have his trousers. But for other scenes, they're not as good...

Changing my mind and saving "Galaxy's Child". Its B-plot is problematic, but it's A-plot (the giant alien baby) is actually really good. For that alone, I spare it the shame of the podium.

And back to Aquiel.

"Aquiel" - 1

Uhhh... yeah it is. But glad @Farscape One 's perseverance finally paid off.

 

[CitadelZombies]

I'll give "Bloodlines" a vote even if it's deathly dull. I dislike the other two a bit more.

"The Price" - 0
"Aquiel" - 1
"Bloodlines" - 1

 

[Ginger]

Aquiel was just a bad episode, with a forgettable a plot, and an more forgettable b plot. It’s only saving grace is the dog.
The Price is so bad I can’t remember any of it except the two ferengi doing a team rocket blasting off again and the leotards. I honestly can’t pick between them.
Bloodlines is just a bit naff, and probably shouldn’t have been the second to last episode. Compared to these two it’s practically top drawer, and so gets my vote.

“The Price” - 0
“Aquiel” - 1
“Bloodlines” - 2

edited as just beaten to my post

Hey, "PERSISTENCE OF VOTING".


My next vote is "The Price".

Better story than the rest, and it did give Troi something.


"The Price" - 1
"Aquiel" - 1
"Bloodlines" - 2

 

[Eckauskas]

Voting for "The Price". It's not a terrible episode and seeing Rikers face after that smug gimp he's been competing against finds out he's bought the proverbial lemon is top drawer.

Also Aquiel is a heinously dull episode.

"The Price" - 2
"Aquiel" - 1
"Bloodlines" - 2

 

[Farscape One]

Just to share a fun fact... whichever episode wins, it will be the first time for it.

In fact, no episode of TNG has won this game twice yet.

 

[Sakonna]

"Bloodlines" again

"The Price" - 2
"Aquiel" - 1
"Bloodlines" - 3

 

[Qonundrum]

It's cliche and done better in season 1, but the revenge theme (from the same dude, too) is still easily more exciting than the others.

"The Price" - 2
"Aquiel" - 1
"Bloodlines" - 4
