Worst Episode Ever

[Alohilani]

The Slayer

Story Flaws: OOC!XR, Mira and Booster missing for no good reason (there's a reason given but it's a terrible reason).

Animation Flaws: Ugly style that makes everyone look old and dumpy.

Other: XR's voice is decidedly off despite being provided by the original actor.

Redeeming qualities: ...I guess I kind of like Savy. And NOSgirls like NOS, so that for some people.

Star Smasher:

Story Flaws: None really. It wasn't a stellar story but I can't think of anything wrong with it offhand.

Animation Flaws: lskfjlsafjslkksldfjugly. Demented. Off-model. Perhaps the worst I've ever SEEN.

Other: None

Redeeming qualities: Some pretty darn good jokes in this one. Need my oven mitts!

The Main Event:

Story Flaws: Where are Mira and Booster? Also, beating the crap out of XR just to get him out of the way = fail

Animation Flaws: Pretty darn ugly.

Other: Does anyone like Norbert Klerm?

Redeeming Qualities: Buzz and Zurg having a ninja fight is win. So is Rentwhistle Swack beating up Norbrat.

First Missions:

Story Flaws: CONTINUITY, LET ME SHOW YOU IT. Dangit, writers, the lime sherbet thing NEVER HAPPENED as XR met Buzz in the pilot movie.

Animation Flaws: Nothing fantastic but not too bad.

Other: The professor guy really annoys me. I dunno about you.

Redeeming Qualities: "Let's-find-new-ways-to-say-REALBIGHORNET" was a pretty good running gag. Not as good as the likes of HYPER DEATH RAY, though.


My vote goes to First Missions. The big continuity flaw is the most torturous out of these, for me.

Feel free to add other things about these episodes and I'll add them to the list.

I think that Star Smasher is quite alright... oo"

[Alohilani]

It's not real bad, but it's not outstanding and GEEZ I hate that animation

The only animationproblems that I saw in this episode were some colormistakes... the way that the characters are drawn seems fine to me, I've seen worse xD

[Alohilani]

you have? o-o it looked really hideous to me. XD;

[Spirit-of-Twilight]

"First Missions"
I hate continuity errors >_<

[loony]

I kind of have to disagree about "First Missions", mainly because I thought, continuity aside, it was a pretty decent episode. And I thought that the professer was teh best part! (mainly because I'm a trekkie, and he was a character on Star Trek.)

And yes, Kila, someone out there DOES like Norbert Klerm. My sister is his one and only fangirl.

Here are my top 5 awful episodes

5: Dirty Work

Story Flaws: Two words: Veggie suits. I cannot STAND Rhizomian technology.

Animation Flaws: Virtually none. That's the one nice thing I can say about this episode, it's very pretty.

Other: There was almost NO NOS in it. Seriously...it seemed like they wanted to keep him in as little as possible.

Redeeming qualities: It had NOS in it, and the artwork and animation was eye candy.

4: Return to Karn

Story Flaws: I think the biggest mistake they made in that episode was that aide to Madame President...I couldn't stand him. And I tend not to like the Karn episodes for the inevitable Ozma/Buzz love-hate interaction.

Animation Flaws: I don't really have anything to say about the animation. Pretty run-of-the mill.

Other: Nothin' here...

Redeeming qualities: Eh...crap blows up in it...

3: Wirewolf

Story Flaws: OOC!Booster. Seriously, he acts like such a jerk to Ty in this episode. And probably the STUPIDEST LINE IN BLOSC HISTORY: "Ooh look radioactive footprints!" "Wait a second....NOS-4-A2 doesn't have any feet!"

Animation Flaws: NOS-4-A2 looked like crap at the very end of teh episode.

Other: Buzz is too retarded to notice that he's pissing off Ty...

2: The Crawling Flesh

Story Flaws: The whole idea is silly at best, and I found it kind of stupid that XR and Booster would give up on finding out what happened to Buzz and Mira so easily.

Animation Flaws: Neh...I thought that some of those slime creature things seemed a little well...halfway done...like they had taken the animatics for them and just pasted them to the cels...

Other: BOOSTER NEKKID, NEED I SAY MORE?

Redeeming Qualities: Zurg as one of those slime creatures.

And the winner for WORST EPISODE EVER IIIIIIIS:

1: Lone Wolf

Story Flaws: The completely unnecesary trial scenes at the beginning and end of the episode, The annoying little kid who is supposed to change Buzz for the better, the whole "Buzz singlehandedly saves a small town AGAIN without trying" thing...the list is endless.

Animation flaws: the villain in this episode has to be the ugliest non-alien character I've ever seen, the animation on XR in what little screen time he has is horrible.

Other: It kind of stretches my imagination that Buzz could've gotten to another planet by Space MOTORCYCLE so quickly...

Redeeming qualities: None that I can think of. This episode flat-out sucked.

[eez]

Any episode that doesn't have Zurg is an automatic PHAIL *snobby Tangean snort*

XDDD All biased views aside, I would say...the ones with the Gargantian Militants. They're not awful episodes, but GAWD. When only one of the whole entire bunch can speak a relatively comprehensible sentence, you start to think like a Gargantian Militant. One. Syll.A.Ble. At. A. Time.

Reminds me of Kirk from the old Star Trek, but even he is not nearly as bad

[loony]

Nah...Kirk wasn't THAT bad...*said the biased star trek fangirl...*

Trust me, if you're looking for bad acting, there was this one Betazoid dude In DS9 who i could SEE reading a cuecard offscreen. He SUCKED.

But yeah, even though Zurg isn't my favorite villain, he's like the whole reason I had to watch "Stranger Invasion". Some of the best Zurg lines ever...

[Spirit-of-Twilight]

I'll add my biased opinion to say that I think any episode that doesn't have XR is just not as good, he adds a lot to the show, he always has such great lines. But I don't like it when they leave out any of Team Lightyear.

[slwatson]

I dunno, Kirk was pretty bad. ::snerks:: But Scotty made up for it.

Worst episode for me? Anything involving Ozma.

[eez]

If it weren't for Scotty, we'd never have the phrase: "Beam me up, Scotty!" to have fun with! Even though it was never actually said on television, but still.

I like Ozma...she adds a fiesty/cold mix to the female variety. Kind of like a challenge Buzz can't conquer in one go. But enough of that! Although, I never really paid key attention to "Beasts of Karn". It didn't have Zurg, but the "Radio Free, Planet Z" ditty was laughs

If you mix XR AND Zurg, it's a whole 'nother level of fun. Lost in Time was perhaps THE best episode ever

[slwatson]

Eh, the catch-phrases are okay, but the characterization -- Scott rocks the world. Least appreciated, most interesting character in TOS (says his lifelong fangirl).

See, I thought Ozma was a raging *****, myself. Personality-wise, she was just awful for Buzz. She was monumentally self-centric, and not in the more harmless way he is. She woulda kinda put the screws to him, in a bad way.

Lost in Time was awesome, though.

[Eclipse'd]

I remember seeing the Slayer, and I wasn't very fond of it. NOS is always a good thing, but the Buffy the 8 year old was pretty sad. No Mira, no Booster, I don't know, I give it a D-. The only Ozma episode I've seen so far would be Millennial Bugs and I was like "Wow, this is terrible."

I could understand her if she were trying to save the last remaining cuddly helpless space bunnies, but giant mutant bugs look like they don't really need help. And ticklish to boot? Come on, that's kind of a weak weak spot if you ask me. Yeah, I'd have to say Millennial Bugs is up there on my personal list of bad episodes.

[eez]

Millennial Bugs...hmmm....I do agree. The bugs themselves weren't all that...frightening. I like how Ozma and Buzz had their spats, and Zurg butted in, only to be snapped out XD

Best part in that whole episode: Zurg falling into an electrical panel yelling "Lift! Lift! Lift and separate!"

An old friend thought he was referring to a bra XD
