least favorite episode

I’m going to make this quick because … well, I don’t have a lot to say about this episode. Season Five had a lot of stinkers and honestly, I could pick any one of them and be fairly accurate that they were the worst of the bunch, but they wouldn’t be my least favorite. That

This, without a doubt, is the easiest challenge day of this month, and I’m not even going to hide it behind the cut: the final episode, “Scoop Chase.” Like … it’s not necessarily bad. It just doesn’t have as strong a plot as the other episodes do, and it’s a lot of rehashing of previous

Okay, this isn’t the worst episode by far, but … you know when you can’t stand something but have difficulty explaining exactly why that is? So “Gateway Shuffle” is that for me. Is it the goofy premise – eco-terrorists turning people into monkeys for reasons – or the over-the-top voice acting, which is usually top

It’s a tie! Well, technically, it’s a two-parter: “Purity” and “Back in the Bottle” from Season Five. It includes my least favorite villain (Pao Tzu) and a return to Chin in a weird attempt to recreate the magic of “The Debt” from Season Three. Even Robert Tapert, Xena producer and co-creator, was severely disappointed in

I could go easy on myself and just pick one of the plenty of shitty episodes from Seasons Nine and Ten and then call it a day. But I was actually thinking, are they really that bad? I mean, that answer is obviously yes (there are a handful that I enjoy, I do admit), but

There is only one episode that I skip over every time, and that is Season Two’s “Sister City.” I may be in the minority here, as I’ve found it on several favorites lists over the years, but I just don’t find it funny. Like … any of it. The plot is thin, and everybody just

Considering that Season Two is my favorite season, I feel a little bad that my least favorite episode is in it. “Black Market” is awful. Even Ron Moore admits that he dislikes this episode. Because it’s awful. It’s the most ridiculous the show ever got, and yes, I’m putting it above the final season’s shenanigans.

I really don’t like talking negatively about The Adventure Zone, but seeing as this challenge is all about making sure I am critical of even my favorite things, well … I have to admit even when the show falls short. Granted, this is going to be a fairly quick entry because I don’t really have

I was actually pleasantly surprised at how hard this challenge was. There are many, many bad episodes of Buffy. I mean, the show spanned seven seasons, so naturally, there have to be at least a few turds in that salad. I can’t really say there are any episodes I won’t watch on principle. (Wait, that’s not entirely
