Game The Most Disliked Episode Written By Gene Roddenberry

A fair outcome - I think Mudd's Women really stinks up season one, along with The Alternative Factor.

Harry fared better in I, Mudd, but it's not a favourite or anything.

I know it wasn't sarcasm, but seeing your post just made me think of this scene:

Good thread. Good list.

I would have saved Mudd’s Women. It’s a thing of it’s time for sure, but I rather like it.

I’m surprised to find I actually like everything Roddenberry did for Star Trek.
 
Easily the worst episode was And The Children Shall Lead. That odious chant they had them do about 5x during the episode is enough to make you want to head for the hills.
