What is everybody's favorite Star Trek episode? Mine is the Next
Generation episode "Who Watches The Watchers" (a team of archeologists
are exposed to the primitive civilzation they are studying and the
crew of the Enterprise have to minimize the damage done by that
exposure).

There were so many great DS9 episodes, but I have to agree that "In the pale
moonlight" is one of the best. My only complaint regarding that episode is
that Spike TV (the only place I've seen the episode in years) seems to have
clipped out a couple extra minutes of it. The clipped scenes were pretty
important, too.
TNG: First Contact. With all the speculation about "aliens" landing on
earth, I thought it was cool to see a scenario where HUMANS were the
"aliens".
TOS: Ummmmmm....to this day I haven't been able to sit through a complete
episode. But, that's a topic for another thread.
