I haven't seen TOS in such a long time that I don't remember much, except for how "Trouble with Tribbles" is a classic, etc. I've barely seen any Voyager and no Enterprise whatsoever, so that leaves the two I'm most familiar with.

I haven't seen the entirety of either of these (scattered episodes from TNG, and a little over halfway through watching DS9) - but I can say with certainty that "Measure of a Man" is my favorite TNG episode, possibly my favorite Trek episode overall (though I have to wonder if DS9 will manage beat it out in some way, we'll see).

DS9 - well, first, the caveat that I'm only halfway through the fifth season anyway and I understand there's quite a few excellent episodes I haven't seen yet. But for the more dramatic storylines - "The Wire" comes to mind, the episode which got me hooked in the first place. "Improbable Cause"/"The Die is Cast," as well. And "Hard Time" absolutely destroys me.

Then there's "Civil Defense," which despite being a fairly tense plotline, I always wind up laughing hysterically. Something about an episode which can be summarized with "well, that escalated quickly" and Dukat and oh, it's gold.

And "Our Man Bashir" deserves a mention for the sheer fun factor and placing my two favorite characters front and center, of course.

...I'll be honest, too, though I always hear about how variable the quality of DS9 is, I somehow can't hate the episodes everyone else seems to hate. Well, maybe except Meridian, that was kind of a drag. But I rather like the Ferengi episodes (Bar Association and Body Parts stand out as two of my favorites). I can't even bring myself to hate the Risa episode because Worf and Jadzia are pretty qt and I will never not be amused by Julian getting dumped for Rom. Seriously, though, there are way too many things I like about DS9 and I should stop now before I eat this thread with tl;dr.

Yeah this is basically my problem with an exercise like this - I would just end up listing every episode of DS9 that I didn't actively dislike, because it's just too hard to differentiate them.

Ha. That's why I just said pretty much all of season 4, 5 and 6 were my favorites.
