Game The Most Disliked Holiday Episode, 2025 Edition

[Victoria]

Ninja'd! I felt Maps and Legends was a very good "setting-up" episode for Picard 1 whatever the later weaknesses of the season.

So...I shall save "The Magicks of Megas-Tu". It's an episode that tackles the continuing problem of the rights of "bad" people and is a better "take" on magic than was managed in live action Trek.

Another Hallowe'en ep gone: LDS: "Upper Decks". Rutherford carves V'ger into a pumpkin!! Plus, I like that Ransom isn't afraid to look stupid in service to the lower decks & ship, and Carol & Alonzo get to go on a date

[Uhura's Song]

I will play, and save, In a Mirror Darkly, Pt1. That is a classic ENT episode, and Hoshi transforming into kinda a badass, in both universes, was a cool S4 arc.

"Persistence Of Vision" is a favorite spooky Voyager of mine. I even like Janeway's gothic holonovel!

[Oddish]

I'm going to go against trend and save "Meridian", because of Jeffrey Combs as creepy Tiron, and Kira's hilarious threat to Quark.

[Detached Nacelle]

The Pegasus is safe. It's a good story, the Romulan commander was a dick but was in the right.

[raneclowd]

Yep, ok, I’m saving TNG, Season 7: “Firstborn”. I really liked Alexander in TNG. I was glad that Worf stood up for him and appreciated him wanting to find his own way in the universe.

[Cyfa]

I always thought "Two Days And Two Nights" was stupid fun.

~ Me, too (I loved the shore leave attire and that Hoshi - or rather, her holiday fling - got lucky!) - it was going to be my next save!

Instead, I'll save FRONTIER DAY and ENT: "Broken Bow". I like the world building and that the crew (except T'Pol and Mayweather) are like fish-out-of-water as they journey further into the unexplored.

[Victoria]

Well....I suppose zombies of any kind have some appeal so the Vulcan zombies of "Impulse" get my vote. Actually, for all its shortcomings, it was a good T'Pol episode.

I don't love the Xindi arc and think it quite overrated, but I like it more than these other two...

[Seven of Five]

I vote to consign These Are The Voyages to the abyss to win this game.

Children of Mars was much more interesting than the hedge podge of a finale.

 

[Detached Nacelle]

Bless you my child.

 

[Farscape One]

I vote to consign These Are The Voyages to the abyss to win this game.

Children of Mars was much more interesting than the hedge podge of a finale.

Thank you. I was afraid coming back late that someone was going to save that horrendous ENT finale.

 

[Oddish]

Thank you. I was afraid coming back late that someone was going to save that horrendous ENT finale.

I figured that abomination was going to lose.

 

[Sakonna]

And TATV becomes the first triple-winner of this cycle!

The 2020 winner of this game was VOY: "Day Of Honor."

The 2022 winner was DS9: "Meridian."
