The most disliked episode of Voyager - Part Four

[BlueStuff]

Okay Trek fans, "least disliked" has concluded, and now it's time for the opposite. 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 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, leave at least 2 eliminations by other posters before you play again. Pretty simple. Enjoy!

Living Witness, one of VOY's best episode. A good story about the recreation of history and historical perspective... and you gotta love the evil versions of the VOY crew in the holodeck recreation

I'm gonna save The Raven. A nice look into Seven's backstory, and I've got a weakness for the Borg and the Hansens...

Year of Hell II, Living Witness, and Scientific Method were three of my absolute favorites that season. Living Witness is so well done.

Probably either Day of Honor or Unforgettable (because I have totally forgotten what is was about thus making the title absurd) would be my least favorite. Unforgettable should get the win since I really have forgotten whatever it was and I'm sure I've seen it a few times. Did it involve seven?

If I can only vote to keep one (haven't played this before) I'll vote for Scientific Method since nobody has picked that yet. I loved the premise and it was well done. Especially Janeway's pivotal scene. Well played indeed!

"The Killing Game part 1", because I cannot save two episodes at once and this two parter had an excellent story and a welcome break from the traditional Trek settings.

Unforgettable (because I have totally forgotten what is was about thus making the title absurd) would be my least favorite. Unforgettable should get the win since I really have forgotten whatever it was and I'm sure I've seen it a few times. Did it involve seven?

Can't tell if this is sarcasm or not, but if it is A-Plus! Unforgettable was the one with the race who's physiology doesn't allow them to remain in your memory. They also plant a sophisticated computer virus on Voyager wiping out all evidence of contact with their race. Chakotay hooks up with a pretty lady.

I'm going to save The Killing Game (II) because the Hirogen are awesome and because they made the entire ship a holodeck! The scene at the beginning of this episode where the holodeck spills out into the ship proper is amazing.


EDIT: While I was posting, someone saved Part I, so I guess we just did a wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am on The Killing Game two-parter! List updated to also remove Scientific Method.

I'll save Scorpion, Part 2, since it got erased from the list a few posts ago despite no one voting for it. It's a fantastic conclusion to the two-parter though.

Also removing Scientific Method from the list to reflect starlitegirl's pick.

EDIT: hahah I was still too slow!

Prey - the best use of Hirogen, an episode that somewhat humanizes (for lack of better word) the 8472 without making them lame like In the Flesh did, an interesting dilemma and a good episode for Seven.

The Omega Directive- A good episode that humanizes Seven of Nine and shows off a bit more of the Trek-verse in the process.

"Unforgettable" may not be among Voyager's finest, but I find it engaging enough. Unique aliens, some good action beats, and an interesting concept.

I'll save Concerning Flight - much like Janeway's holonovel in the first two seasons, I always liked her da Vinci program as well, and this was a fun adventure.

Hunters introduced the Hirogen which were an interesting species in terms of concept and in terms of visuals (very tall, the weird blue armor, carrying advanced weapons yet applying war paint)

While I wasn't happy about Kes leaving, The Gift was at least a fairly good send-off episode.

I'll save Nemesis, which was perhaps the last good Chakotay episode. Very solid episode.
