Especially the ones that aren't super frequent fan favorites!

The Royale is one that doesn't seem to get a lot of love, but I really enjoy it. I think people dislike it because it's kind of ridiculous and has a weird premise, but that's exactly why I love it. So many goofy moments. Especially Data playing craps. Just fantastic.

The one where Wesley has a crush on an alien princess and her governess tries to cockblock him.

Also, Worf gives dating advice!

I had a much-needed cry through most of Hollow Pursuits because it was the most accurate depiction I'd ever seen of the way my social anxiety works.

"The Wounded" is a really, really amazing and underrated one.

The Best of Both Worlds. Still.

Same here.

Not really in the fandom, so I don't know where it fits in the fan-fave spectrum, but I love the one where Picard, Guinan, Keiko O'Brien and ... somebody get turned into kids.

The look on Riker's face when Wee Picard is all "I want to see my father now! Now now now! DAD!!!" is priceless.

I also like the one where they go to Risa and come back with a game. But I think that's a "Wesley saves the day" episode, which means it's probably hated.

Ro Laren was the fourth. I love that episode and Picard pretending to be Riker's son. :oD

i freaking loved that episode. Guinan being so cool with turning into a kid and encouraging Ro to have fun with it too... hee. Little cuties. And Picard throwing a temper tantrum is beyond hilarious. :D

Love that "Picard and Co. get turned into kids" episode and it gave Ro some very nice character development.

The Defector.

This one. Makes me cry every time.

That one was awesome.

I CAN'T DECIDE AAAAAHHH. I like all the Lwaxana episodes, everything featuring Dr. Pulaski, Elementary Dear Data, Peak Performance, The Measure of a Man, Up The Long Ladder, Yesterday's Enterprise, Tin Man... jeez, and that's only up through season 3. I'll stop there for now. XD

Fuck yeah Pulaski fans! I like my Star Trek doctors as snarky as possible (Bones, Pulaski, EMH) and am always saddened when TNG fans bad-mouth her.

"Who Watches the Watchers" where the crew accidentally makes first-contact with a species with no space travel yet and the people think Picard is a god. My memory of the plot is pretty fuzzy, but it was my favorite episode for quite a while.

"Disaster" where some disaster happens to the ship and nobody can travel anywhere without climbing through turbolift tubes, etc. Worf has to deliver the O'brien's baby and Picard is stuck in a turbolift with three kids.

"I, Borg" - Geordi semi-adopts a marooned Borg kid.

The "Time's Arrow" two-parter. Data in period costume! Data's decapitated head! Past!Guinan! Mark Twain! SO MUCH AWESOME!

"Starship Mine" - Picard is a BAMF. This is all you need to know.

Eek! I forgot two important ones!

"The Next Phase" where Geordi and Ro get stuck "out of phase" where no one can see or hear them and they can't touch or manipulate objects (but they magically don't fall through the floor or asphyxiate or get left hanging in space when the ship moves on without them). Everyone things they're dead and start planning a wake while they have to try to figure out how to get back to normal. I really started to love Geordi and Ro together but they didn't really team up again after this.

"Attached" where Picard and Crusher do that escape-while-handcuffed-together cliche, but their linked by little stereo tuning knobs on their necks that force them to stay close to one another and also they start to share some thoughts. I'd just started to ship them not long before this aired so my little shipper self was so over the moon about this episode.

I am cracking up because of the phrasing-- I'm imagining Miles having the baby and not Keiko and Worf delivering Molly that way. :D and yet D: at the same time, man.

My favorite thing about Disaster is in DS9, when Keiko announces that she's having another baby, Worf immediately freaks out and starts panicking: "Seven months? Unfortunately, I will be away from the station at that time. Far away. Visiting my parents. On Earth. Excuse me."

Besides The Defector:

The one where Troi is turned into a Romulan. That's a good one.

The one where Riker is going crazy.

That one where Geordie is stuck on that planet with the Romulan dude.

(I can't look up titles because I'm on my phone and can't switch tabs because Safari is dumb.)

Ooh! I love the Romulan Troi one! That was great.

I love all the ones everyone is mentioned so far. My less frequently mentioned faves are by season

One: "Coming of Age": I love that the tests are different from what we might expect of Starfleet test situations, and I love that Wesley values helping and being kind to a friend over ruthless competition.

Two: "Pen Pals": I love every episode that proves that Data really does have emotions long before he gets the emotion chip.

Three: "The Price": I can see how people might read this as a cheesy romance, but I really like that they let Troi have this kind of whirlwind relationship and be all gossipy about it with Crusher, and have to make ethical decisions about how that romance is affecting her.

Four: "Family": I love Worf's parents so hard. And it kills me watching Picard with the nephew I know will die not long after. *sniffle*

Five: "Disaster": Troi is boss. Picard climbs turbo-lifts with the little girl from Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman. Worf midwifes!!!!!!!!!!!!

Six: "The Quality of Life": I love that this show continued to push the envelope about our perceptions of what is alive and the rights of those who are living yet very different from humans

Seven: "Parallels": Worf and alternate realities. Yummo. I loved Jadzia. Loved her so hard, and I think she and Worf were meant to be. But before Jadzia, there was Deanna. And I shipped them freaking hard for years.

The one where Worf, Alexander, and Deanna play a western on the holodeck.

The one where they encounter Enterprise C

The one where Data has dreams

The Pegasus

The Measure of a Man.
