... from shows you usually like. I think the Simpsons are OK at best. Anyway the episode where they go to Italy or somewhere was on yesterday and they had Sideshow Bob as the mayor of a town. Except he has a kid now, who is so god damn unbelievably annoying. I just had to make this thread, he was that grating. Vendetta vendetta!

I love Star Trek The Next Generation.
However from the medicore first season, there was the episode where Tasha Yar is kidnapped by a race of stereotypical Africans. Just an awful episode from a usually amazing show.

I dislike the first episode of House. The way it's shot just looks wrong and amateur. But as it's the pilot, I suppose I could excuse it.
I also dislike the first season of The Simpsons. I bought the DVD but I think I've only ever watched it once.

"Swan Song" from Supernatural, two weeks ago. I'm not convinced they weren't trying to tear the show down from the inside out.

Star Trek Voyager where Capt. Janeway and Tom Paris became big salamander-like creatures who had sex with each other (after Paris went faster than warp 10 in his shuttlecraft, he became a monster who took Janeway to a swamp-planet to become the salamanders).

Star Trek Voyager episode Threshold. That episode is stupid for so many reason. Watch happens is Tom Paris builds a shuttle that can break Warp 10. By doing so, he can go anywhere in the galaxy, including back to Earth, in the blink of an idea. The draw back is he "evolves" into a lizard. How ape man evolves into lizard crocodile is beyond me but that isn't the worst part. As half lizard half man, he kidnaps Janeway and takes off at Warp Ten. He could have gone anywhere in the galaxy but he ends up going the Star Trek equivilant of up the street where he and Janeway have turned completely into lizards and reproduced. Then, like waving a magic wand, the doctor reverses evolution, turning them back to normal. So they have a way to go back home, and the drawback to using this method can be cured by the doctor easily, whom in a Warp 10 voyage back to Earth would be the only person not to evolve because he is a computer program, but they don't use it.

I quit watching Voyager very early on, but that may the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

The Dexter's Lab episode where the family goes to a restaurant where they have to eat ham hocks and the episode is resolved by Dexter putting a robotic arm on his dad to beat some dude at arm-wrestling.

Power Rangers. Ninja Turtles. Should've been an awesome episode, but it ended up being something terrible.

The Simpsons, Season 9, episode 2. Golden Age of the Simpsons comes to a screeching halt with The Principal and the Pauper.
Everything about it is awful. No redeeming quality whatsoever.

Futurama: I forget the name of the episode, but it's the one where Bender is desperate to be remembered and ends up becoming the Pharaoh of an Ancient Egypt style planet.
It pushes Bender's usually funny personality quirks to the point where the character is just loathsome (The bad, Wesley Crusher kind of loathing, not the effective heel, Frank Burns style loathing), and yet he's forgiven with no recourse.

One of the more recent episodes of The Office where Michael was OK that he was in an affair.
He's supposed to be a lovable loser with many faults, not a straight-out bad guy.

They haven't know what to do with that character for years now. Sometimes he's a lovable loser, sometimes he's malicious. They've lost any sense of consistency.

Veronica Mars - The first half of Season 2(because I hate that Veronica got back together with Duncan after breaking up with Logan, especially Donut Run when she helps him escape the US with him and Meg's daughter) and the series finale(hated how it put her back to where she was at the pilot episode). Edit: Also Episode 18 of season 3(two episodes before the season finale), I Know What You'll Do Next Summer. Honestly, that was the most boring, uninteresting episode of the series IMO and I usually like the show.

Oh, and I didn't like the South Park episode "Douche and Turd". Most of the episodes where Stan's the only sane one are kinda formulaic anyway, but this just felt overbearing in general.

I quit watching Voyager very early on, but that may the dumbest thing I've ever heard. It's easily the worst episode in the entire Star Trek franchise. If you haven't seen it, consider yourself lucky. If you're curious about it at all, here's a great review of the episode by SFDebris: BTW, there's also a lengthy intro video where he explains the philosophy behind his reviews. It's interesting stuff, but it's not essential viewing.

There was an episode of Law and Order SVU this year that was just terrible. I can give them a slight pass because the ep. only existed to write out the character of ADA Alexander Cabot. Basically the show starter with this crazy woman claiming she had been raped to a married man she was obviously obsesed with. The police find her alliged rapist and he claims the sex was consentual. Then the woman died of a MRSA infection from an injury she suffered when some african imigrent woman helped her fend off the guy who was trying to rape her. But before she died on her death bed she taped a statement saying the guy raped her. Anyway it turned out the African woman had been raped in refuge camps several times "and she knew what rape was" so the guy was convicted and Cabot went to be a lawyer for African woman or something. But the episode was so terrible because it broke the formula of a L&O show. It's like the writers didn't remember to show us that the woman was telling the truth.
