Your favorite and least favorite episodes


I'm currently going through the series and need help to stay away from the dogs and zero-in on the great ones, like the awesome "Q Who." Please cite your favorite and least favorite episodes. A brief explanation why would be a plus (if you have the time). Thanks!

I think it would be best to watch all of them. You can't have good episodes without bad ones. The whole Yin and Yang thing.
I am also going thought the series again. I am keeping a spreadsheet rating each episode this time through. About half way through season one. If I had to pick my favorite right now probably the finale "All Good Things".

Thanks, I saw "All Good Things" a long time ago and remember liking it.

Last night I viewed "Pegasus" and "The Last Outpost." The former (from the last season) was great, but the latter (from the first season) was pretty bad, sorta like "Arena" if it sucked, although the introduction to the Ferengi was kinda interesting.

Two two-parters on my favorites list:

Best of Both Worlds
Chain of Command

Parallels would be my choice for both.

"Parallels" was the next one I was going to watch.

Did you like it?

While I can't decide on my least favorite one episode I especially like is "Lower Decks."

reply

I saw that one a couple nights ago; yes, it's really good.

reply

It's a pretty good episode; the part where Worf finds out he's married to Deanna is amusing.

reply

The episode when Troi turns into a frog is my least favorite.

reply

Is that "Genesis"? I haven't seen it yet.

reply

I think thats it.

reply

Ok.

The Inner Light

I don't really know how to explain why without spoiling it for someone who hasn't watched it yet.

reply

I saw it since starting this post. Yes, it's a quality episode, thanks. One of my favorites I saw recently is the two-part "Gambit" from (I think) the seventh season.
