Bad, very bad!
I have a soft spot for the hapless and annoying archeologist/inventor who was pretending to come from the future but actually came from the past in that one TNG episode.

Also I'm somehow less nerdy than everyone else here since that's the only time travel Trek thing that hasn't been mentioned that I can come up with.

There was the Voyager Sarah Silverman episode too. That hasn't been mentioned yet.

The one where Kirk lets his almost-girlfriend die in the 1930s was pretty good and probably in the top 5 of best TOS episodes.

You mean the episode in which a hippie in the 60's finds a crashed time traveled starship, uses the technology to become the world's most evil businessman who is then smart enough somehow to take the technology from the future and adapt it to make his own timeship that will destroy the quadrant if he tries to fly it but he's too evil and somehow to dumb to listen to warnings, and he's also smart enough to take this same technology he simultaneously understands completely/doesn't comprehend at all to completely disable Voyager and steal the doctor to make a mobile holographic emitter (something the crew couldn't do) so he can steal the doctor. All done from his little 80's macintosh.

That episode was loving garbage and out of every Voyager episode I watched I hated that one the most. I had at least heard about Threshold beforehand.

The best part was them showing the dude at the end listening to the radio in the seventies or sixties or whatever, and it's playing... hair metal. Which was completely not in that era.

Great research there, Voyager writing staff.

Yeah, thats the episode. The one with Sarah Silverman where she totally gave Tom a beej.


I also liked the time travel in Enterprise that didn't actually have the temporal cold war poo poo, where they find the future Enterpise with the descendants of the crew running poo poo.

I can only think of two DS9 time travel plots, the Trouble with Tribbles and the one when they go back to like what would be our present day and Sisko ends up starting Black Lives Matter.

Unless you count the O'Brien time skipping because of the Romulan Warbird, which was cool but not a time travel episod per se.

You must not have actually watched Enterprise because the temporal cold war was literally the worst thing and honestly a lot of time travel episodes are stupid. Hey, lets go back in time and meet Mark Twain, as the most annoying person in human history

The surface of the Deathstar is covered in anti-capital batteries, or did you just completely miss the trench sequence?

Also, yeah, maybe the temporal cold war sucked, but uh... time travel plots are grade-a badass.

Was there actually a sex scene? If so then it must have been cut out of the version I saw because all I remember is Lea Thompson simply kissing him on the bill.

Hey febreeze you should do a comic about that rich dude with a castle who gives his wife a key to the only locked door in the castle but tells her not to open it.

Then she does and its his dead wives.

Except its the patriots and billy 5 aces and collins and its a room with players traded to poo poo franchises.
