The Single Worst Line of Dialogue in the entire Star Trek Franchise

Re: The Single Worst Line of Dialogue in the entire Star Trek Franchis

TUVOK: I am picking up a vessel, Captain. It's Borg.

TUVOK: Captain. You must relieve me of duty, at once.
SEVEN: An assimilation virus has penetrated our defences!

CHAKOTAY: We're becoming drones!!!!

JANEWAY: Hard to starboard. Reinforce the shields!

KIM: Incoming fire! Doctor!

The Doctor:: Computer, activate the ECH.

COMPUTER: Acknowledged. Transferring all systems to your command. You have the Bridge.

The Doctor: Indeed. Shields to maximum. Photon torpedoes, full volley. Fire! Computer, report!

This is just awful dialogue, the acting everything..
Oh wait, this was the Doctor's fantasy.....it's still awful :lol:

Nah, that's one thing I liked about Voyager. From time to time they just didn't take themselves that seriously.

The ECH episodes were FUN!

I believe the worst line ever spoken, not only in Star Trek, but on TV had to be - "Wesley you have the bridge"

As much I hated it, it was alright to see that as a fantasy. But they crossed a line with me when they decided to actually make him an ECH. Couldn't we have a throw away line about him having to learn about command like anyone else. At least we would've been spared other dreck like "An Emergency Command Hologram outranks an Ensign!"

From TNG: Justice

"And I welcome this huge one."

and later...

"... about this thick, this long."

I'm a big defender of Season 1 TNG, but there are so many attempts at trying to say: "Look at how advanced we are with all these tongue and cheek sex jokes!"

It's the same as the first two seasons of ENT. They decided people would rather turn in for a half naked Jolene Blalock instead of decent writing.

It would have been hilarious if they just started episode off like that, without any explanation until later. :lol:

It's still corny, even for Voyager.

OMG, after reading this, here's a new nomination for worse line then:

The Doctor: An Emergency Command Hologram programmed with over two million tactical subroutines outranks an ensign.
The whole point of an ECH is to be activated only when the command structure breaks down right?

So now a qualified ensign has to take a back seat to a hologram now. A hologram that fantasizes about giving orders...

FAJO: Don't worry -- the solvent won't damage your skin. But in minutes it will completely dissolve your uniform.

I'd be delighted to have you go naked...
To each his own, but why didn't that part sound right?
After watching that, I thought it would have been fitting (and cute too) if the very next scene showed Data wearing Fajo's own clothing.
