Sorry for cocking things up so much this morning. Now, you may vote for your THREE least favorites from this season. Past winners:

Season One: Code of Honor
Season Two: Shades of Gray
Season Three: The Price

Season four is my favorite TNG season and in my top three of all Trek. I found every episode at least watchable and none of them made me want to turn off the tv the way really bad episodes can.

It just did a really good capitalizing on season three's successes and the momentum generated by The Best of Both Worlds. The three episodes I voted for are at worst just average which speaks to this season's strength. I might even be one of the few who enjoyed The loss, devil's due and legacy.

My votes:
Suddenly Human
Galaxy's Child
In Theory

Suddenly Human, Legacy, and Devil's Due for me. I agree, it's a strong season. I really don't strongly dislike those three, but they are lesser lights amongst some of the season's stronger episodes.

The Loss
Devil's Due
Half a Life

Suddenly Human
The Loss
Legacy

 

[The Laughing Vulcan]

Suddenly Human
Legacy
Half A Life

Not bad episodes, just the weakest of a very good season.

I wasn't keen on the actress who played Ishara. I just didn't like the premise of Half A Life. And something about Suddenly Human felt contrived and false. But comparatively insignificant complaints.

In Theory, Identity Crisis, Suddenly Human. Just didn't find them as riveting as the others.

"Suddenly Human" was the only one I actually wanted to click on.

Remember Me
Final Mission
Devil's Due

Fourth place would be Suddenly Human. However, IMO as a whole Season Four was a pretty good season for TNG.

Suddenly Human, Legacy, and Devil's Due. Although Devil's Due is the only one I actively hate.

I don't consider this an especially strong season of TNG, but a fairly consistently good one, at least. Probably 80% of the episodes fall in the 7/10 range for me.

Pretty strong season, but...

In Theory - nice idea, with some nice moments. But overall, one too many cringeworthy moments to be truly enjoyable.

Legacy - the only ep in the season I really dislike. Yawn.

The Host - I almost feel bad marking down the introduction to the Trill, because I think the concept is pretty cool (though DS9's version of the symbiotic relationship was better). But somehow most of the ep just doesn't quite work, I think largely because I just don't "feel" the Bev/Odan relationship at the core of the story.

"Final Mission," "The Loss," and "Night Terrors." They pretty much all sucked. But even these eps had good things in them, so as others are saying, the fourth season is pretty strong. BTW, shouldn't it be "Redemption, Part I," in the poll listing? -- RR

 

[Kirkman1987]

Suddenly Human
The Loss
Devil's Due

 

[HoundDog]

Tough choice. Season 4 was really strong.

Suddenly Human
QPid
In Theory

Yeah, that's a typo. Sorry. Not as bad as the typo on the DS9 poll, though.

Suddenly Human: Western show plot recycled...kid raised by Native Americans

The Loss: Troi is revealed to be the bitch we all knew deep down she was.

Half a Life: Zzzz......

I like DEVIL'S DUE, very TOS like.

 

[Ro_Laren]

^ I liked The Loss, but that is because I liked Troi. Though I must admit she was a bit whiny in this episode!

I LOVE Half a Life. David Ogden Stiers is truly excellent as Dr. Timicin.
