THE OBJECTIVE: A sudden-death elimination game in which we remove our personal favorite episodes/movies from a themed list, until we arrive at the episode that is, if not the worst, at least the most disliked.
It's a framework to say positive things about episodes from across the franchise.
THE RULES: Below is a list of episodes & movies with weddings (or alien ceremonies that are equivalent to weddings) from TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT, DIS, LD, and SNW.
Eliminate/save your favorite, or the one you deem the ‘best' of what currently remains.
Post something you enjoy about the episode you are saving, and copy-and-paste the list with your choice removed.
You can use any standard you like to judge which option is "best." You can save episodes for being widely recognized “best Trek” classics, or for idiosyncratic qualities that no one appreciates but you.
As you get down the list, you might have to reach more and more for something to enjoy about an episode, and it's OK to eventually save episodes for being "less bad."
But -- no tactical voting! You cannot remove an episode because you don’t think anyone else will, or because you feel it would threaten your preferred episode's chance to “win.”
You can take multiple turns.
Leave at least 2 eliminations by other posters before you eliminate another episode.
New players are always welcome. You do not have to already be a "most disliked game" regular to dive in.
Much thanks to @Farscape One for helping me vet the list!
Enjoy!

I actually could believe in the Kirok/Miramanee relationship developing and moving along, especially due to the actors' on-screen chemistry. (But, damn, that ending is one of TOS's grimmest.)
