“... Worst Star Trek Episodes Of All Time”

That would be the one we just went through for 8 years

[Red Badger]

Everybody has their opinion...................

[freedumb2003]

I didn’t even need to read the list.

Worst ever: “Spock’s Brain” (TOS)
2nd worst: “Kirk the Raging Queen” (aka “Turnabout Intruder” TOS)

3rd worst: every single episode of “Enterprise.”

[yuleeyahoo]

How did the miss “Skin of evil” from TNG?

It’s not every day that you security officer, Tasha Yar is killed by an oil slick.

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[Mr. Douglas]

“If he has the time, Doctor. If he has the time.”

Episode?

[freedumb2003]

Best episode of all the series and better than all the movies including the ghastly reboots:

“Darmok” — arguably the best single SF episode of ANY SF series.

[Mr. Douglas]

“And now you’ll learn why war is a thing to be avoided.”

Episode?

[Mr. Douglas]

“Dammit, Jim. I’m a doctor, not a bricklayer!”

Episode?

[BenLurkin]

Anything from “the next generation”.

That show reeked on steroids.

[Mr. Douglas]

“Nearest I can tell, they’re born pregnant.”

Episode?

[Mr. Douglas]

“What is...love?”

Episode?

HAHAHA. Trick question. This is what hot female “aliens” say to Kirk before he’s seen in the next scene putting his boots on.

[Mr. Douglas]

“Of course! It’s so simple a child could do it.”
Episode?

[Mr. Douglas]

“There is an old Vulcan saying. ‘Only Nixon could go to China.’”

Episode?

“The Omega Glory” is a historically significant episode of Star Trek for a couple of reasons. At a time when the Cold War had two nations living in fear, “The Omega Glory” attempted to directly address the absurdity of this conflict with a thinly veiled allegory involving a race known as the Yangs (wink) and a race known as the Comms (wink, wink) that are embroiled in a conflict of ideas. It was bold stuff.

The other thing that makes “The Omega Glory” significant is just how awful it is. Let’s skip past how boring the episode is and get right to the point where the episode takes a huge moral nosedive by subtly suggesting that the Yangs (America) are superior. It’s not clear if Gene Roddenberry was intentionally trying to push this message or if he was so over his head in boiling this complicated issue down to a 40-minute episode that he churned out a confused mess of a plot which accidentally sends the wrong message. We’d believe either.

The WRONG message would be that America is superior to the USSR? Really?

[SpaceBar]

The one where the old travelling Shakespeare troop guy with his daughter is really a mass murderer. Absolutely unwatchable.

[Castigar]

Precious Cargo should be removed from the list of worst episodes for one simple reason...Padma Lakshmi.

[mc5cents]

OK. I stopped reading when I got to this passage: "The other thing that makes “The Omega Glory” significant is just how awful it is. Let’s skip past how boring the episode is and get right to the point where the episode takes a huge moral nosedive by subtly suggesting that the Yangs (America) are superior."

Moral nosedive? Explain, whomever you are.

[mainestategop]

Well, a few of them I don't agree with.

Omega glroy is one that doesn't belong on their list. The reasoning that the Yangs(America) is superior is bad just shows how biased and leftist the author is. No one is saying that Americans are superior to Chinese racially. But culturally and economically we were and our political system as its intended still is.

Savage curtain, well maybe they're a little harsh.

Spock's brain? I don't know. I do know that it aired a lot when I was younger so I have a bias against it but there's a logical reason why spock is still alive, Vulcans are built differently.

The episodes I would say that are bad are the one where Tasha Yar Dies. (she was bada$$ and should've stuck around longer) The episode about Barclay's hologram fantasies, the one where Kirk finds that nomad probe that wants to sterilize everyone and most of the episodes of Deep Space Nine.

Also, the animated series was never touched on.

[Ge0ffrey]

You forgot the episode when the castaways were attacked by giant talking vegetables: “The Great Vegetable Rebellion.” Spock was swallowed by a large carrot.
