Top Ten Trek Episodes that were Just Too Wacky/Wierd/Wrong/Sexy/Boring/Controversial to be aired


10: Wacky:
"Aquatic See, Denobulan Do" Phlox is bored with the lack of weird aliens to treat. When he discovers the ancient Earth art called "mime", he takes it up as a casual hobby (minus the white face--purple suits him so much better) that soon becomes a 24/7 preoccupation. Some crewmembers are disturbed (most notably Archer) while others are amused (most notably Mayweather [okay, so maybe "other[bost_uid0]s[/bost_uid0]" was a bit of a stretch]). It turns out to be useful when, during a desperate battle that rocks the ship and knocks out the Universal Translators onboard, Phlox successfully communicates via sign language to a Xindi defector his last-ditch plan to save the ship's last slice of pecan pie from sliding off a table and onto the floor.

9: Weird:
"The Sportsters of Dodecahelion" In this transparent re-make, Captain Janeway, Tuvok, Kes, and Torres are captured and added to a slave population consisting mostly of male hunks. Janeway promptly goes Jim Kirk on the lot of them. What little good there is in the show is wrecked by the fact that at the start of nearly every scene can be heard the voice of Jennifer Lien continuing to complain heartily about how she "never gets any hunks".

8: Wrong:
"What's Up, Doc Phlox?" In a thoroughly jaw-dropping heart-stopping shocker, Daffy Duck and gang become canon (:O) when Archer goes back in time to [iost_uid0]Space Jam[/iost_uid0] to save the world from extraterrestrial meanies. Again.

7: Sexy:
"Shirtless" After Phlox and T'Pol have full-body run-ins with poison ivy, it turns out that the best way for Denobulans or Vulcans to get rid of rashes is to let the affected skin air out the poison that caused it. --Hmm? Oh yeah, Shran's an alien too, isn't he? Yeah, so he falls into the stuff too and has to air out his skin as well...anyone else?...

6: Boring:
"The Linguist and the Pilot" An entire episode that focuses on nothing more than what happens after Mayweather wagers Hoshi $100 that they can switch bridge positions for an entire month without anyone noticing. Archer seems to think something is odd at first, but gets used to telling "Sato" to move the ship around without even realizing he's doing it. No one else so much as blinks at the irregularity--and that includes the viewers.[/colorost_uid0]
