I'll go first:

The Voyager two-parter "Year of hell" is considered one of the strongest stories in the series, and I'd presume ranks pretty high in the entire franchise. But it's entirely rubbish, of course, because even across 2×45 minutes it only depicts 257 days.

We were promised a full year of hell, where are the last 108 days (109 in case of a leap year)?! Did they plan a three-parter but cut costs to afford an even tighter catsuit for Jeri Ryan?

I'm outraged by this glaring oversight and can never watch another Trek episode with the same suspension of disbelief, [edited for brevity]


Just kidding of course, loved rewatching the EPs the other day 🙂 What absolutely stick-in-the-mud killjoy kvetching can you all think of to ruin a Trek episode?

Bonus points for being more ridiculous than whatever Youtubers du jour come up with 🤣🖖

Harbinger is the worst episode of ENT. The captain and the alien of the week are maybe 6 minutes of the episode. The rest is a bunch of bullshit with resolving the conflicts in the crew that had been brewing all season.

Only saving grace is the fight scene, but then the macho American space marine gets schooled by lieutenant mister bean? Lolwut

What the hell do they think this is, Hamlet, Gone With the Wind, Ruggles of Red Gap? It’s a goddamned space western, aliens in rubber masks, you know the drill!

"Resolving conflicts that have been brewing all season"? Serialisation is against Roddenberry's intentions!
