We asked you for your choice of worst ever episode of Star Trek. This is what you said......

Any episode with time travel
I am only 11 years old but i just cant get my head round these time lines especially Tasha Yar being the mother of Sela as she died in Skin of Evil. Maybe i'll work it out sometime.
- Stacey Thew from Falmouth

The Thaw (Voyager)
I really don't like this episode. Ensign Kim and Lt.Torres find themselves asleep and in another reality with an annoying clown (Michael McKean) threatening to kill them and some other unfortunate people. Not only is this episode boring but also stupid. The ending isn't good either. This is one of many terrible season two Voyager episodes. Season three is much better overall. Please do not see The Thaw!It's terrible!
- Pedro Ferreira from Belgravia

The Empath
This has to be one of the lowest budget episodes. Kirk, McCoy and Spock find a mute empath in a spooky black room who is made to watch Kirk and McCoy get tortured, a must for all sadists. Minimal dialog, lots of ethereal ahhh ahhh music, and some expressive dancing from Gem the Empath. The aliens with the superior technology, who are doing the torturing, the Vians must have the bought their clothes from Talos IV where Kirk left Captain Pike.

not sure
its the one where worf has to teach some klingon children who got seperated from the klingon homeworld somehow, the ways of being an honourable klingon.very boring The klingons are so stupid how did they invent spaceships if all they do is fight and their scientists arent respected, and why are worf's ideas always wrong in tng. worf will say lets fire photon torpedoes every time and picard will say no! lets talk first and he's always right. im glad worf doesnt command his own vessel he wouldnt get anywhere.

ALL OF THE OLD ONES!!
OK, was there one epsiode that didn't end up with Kirk snogging someone?!?! NO
Also, the same background (rocks and stuff) was used 3 times in a row!!! Stupid or what?
- Jessica Dale from Lancing

I, Borg
A Borg that's an individual Come on They can do better than that. Hugh was not even disconnected from the collective. This has to be one of the wiorst Star Treg TNG episodes ever.
- Paul Hayes from Nuneaton

The Naked Now
Flashback episodes are never any good, and this one was no exception. Riker was even remebering scenes that hadn't happened to him, such as an ensign walking down the corridor into the bridge. How does he know which corridors the ensign walked down to get there??!!
- Martyn Covell from Bracknell

Learning Curve
It's *so* predictable - Tuvok personally takes on the training of a group of bolshy cadets, and by the end of the episode he's saved the life of one of them and so they all become good friends (and obviously better people having learned an important lesson). What a load of complete twazzle!
- Phil Jimmieson from Liverpool

And the Children Shall Lead
If you need to ask, you haven't seen it.
- Laurence E. Dickerson from Wisconsin

Drone (ST:VOY) Season 5
I mean, come on! A 29th century Borg? Why do they pay so much attention to the Borg - is it just because there is Seven on board? They should do some stories on Klingons or Vulcans to satisfy B'lanna and Tuvok. Good riddance to bad rubbish !
- Simon Atkinson from London

The High Ground
Melinda Snodgrass's disgraceful and insultingly simplistic TNG story about a planet where terrorist freedom fighters with Irish accents struggle against a militaristic regime.. it's never been shown in Britain and you're not missing anything. Why did Patrick Stewart agree to appear in it?
- Dave Shepherd from Bradford

For the World is Hollow and I have Touched the Sky
With a stupid title like that, how could the episode possible be any good?
- Ian Dunn from cksonville

Coda
Janeway keeps dying in it, but she NEVER stayed dead!!
- Vicki Pryke from Deal

Move Along Home
Move along home was just so silly. A group of aliens turning up at Quarks, playing a board game in which the command crew are the 'pieces' and Quark having to make the right moves to save Sisko and company, plus silly looking, guffawing aliens! Ahhhh! It just makes me cringe to think I actually bought this episode.
- Jeremy Ogden from Tadley

Family (TNG)
Shockingly poor episode - I think it's the one after The Best of Both worlds. Basically the budget was low because The Best of Both worlds cost so much to make back then. Each crew member with relatives on earth takes time to visit them. Picard goes to his brother's home in France, whilst Worf's human parents come aboard the enterprise as it's being re-fitted. This is not Star Trek.
- Greg from Sheffield

Most of the old ones!
Every single one in which Kirk got the Babe made me squirm. Possibly I was just too young and found all that kissy, kissy smulch too much. And let's be honest he wasn't that good-looking! And not too professional either- snogging during office hours, when his crews' lives were hanging on the edge! Otherwise, I just loved the series, the ideas, the imagination that went into them- old and new.
- Hazel from Haddington

Mudds Women
Foxy female androids from another galaxy, all serving one man who looks like a 1920's circus strong man. Hardly a compelling vision of the future.
- Paul McEllin from Liverpool

Every episode with Keiko O'Brien
Because she never ever stops busting Chief Miles O'Brien's chops. She is always on his case! Whatever Miles says, whatever he does, it is never good enough for her. She demands more concideration than any other lifeform I've ever seen, including the Crystalline Entity. Even when Miles comes home after saving the entire Alpha quadrant the only thing she has to say to him is that he is late for supper. Again.
- Paulo Ferrada from Leiden

Masks
Data goes on a long, pointless Method Acting dealybob in this last-season episode. He becomes several different people and, for no good reason, the Enterprise becomes an Aztec-looking city. WHY??!! Were they plumb running out of ideas? It had NO humor, a rambling plotline, and was less than one expects from ST:TNG on a regulr basis.
- Sumana Harihareswara from Berkeley, California

The highly overrated "The Trouble With Tribbles"
The god-awful puns, the puffy little tribbles themselves, the generally bad attempt by an action/adventure show to be funny and the fact that I'm half Romulan (on my mother's side).
- Mick Tuthill from Madison, New Jersey

Move Along Home
It's the only episode that has ALL of the elements that make up a bad Star Trek episode: aliens that not only look ridiculous and have pointless idiosyncracies but also have a stupid name (the Wadi), the cast have extremely embarassing things to do (play hopscotch) no real storyline, the only tension is someone nearly falling off a cliff and who is then pulled back a complete anti-climax, we think the team are dead, but they're not really - it's just a game (how novel - not!) and it's a DS9 episode - so relatively it shows up even more badly, since on average DS9 episodes are stronger than the other shows.
