[VOY] Season Two Rating Comparisons

We’ve compiled some of the ratings from various reviewers for season two of Voyager. We calculated what their scores would be out of 100 to more easily compare with each other. Keep in mind that they originally didn’t rate the episodes with that exact scale, but we tried to accurately translate their rating.The reviewers we looked at were Jordan Hoffman, Jamahl Epsicokhan who runs the review site Jammer’s Reviews, and Kethinov. It appears there wasn’t a lot that we agreed on for this season.

One area of agreement was that Threshold was bad, getting an average rating of 10 out of 100.
Each of the other reviewers gave one episode a perfect score, but no one had the same episode as their favorite. Jordan Hoffman’s favorite episode was Non Sequitor (the one where Harry wakes up in San Fransisco). Jammer’s favorite episode was Projections (the one with Barclay). Kethinov’s favorite episode was Death Wish (the one with Q). Our favorite two episode were Basics Part I and Meld, which after adding in the others’ ratings averaged out to be lower than Tuvix, one of our least favorite episodes.

[DS9] Season Two Rating Comparisons

We’re once again looking at what other people have said about Star Trek, in this case season two of Deep Space Nine. We took the ratings from a few different reviewers and calculated what their scores would be out of 100. They originally didn’t rate the episodes with that exact scale, but we tried to accurately translate their rating.

The reviewers we’re looking at are Jordan Hoffman, who writes for StarTrek.com, Jamahl Epsicokhan who runs Jammer’s Reviews, Kethinov, and Treknobabble. Treknobabble’s scores are a combined rating from two reviewers, so keep in mind their scale is slightly different.

The episode that seemed to bore everyone was Second Sight, which ended up with the low score of 34.5.

Here are the top 5 rated episode:

1. Blood Oath – 85.5
2. Necessary Evil – 82
3. (tie) The Maquis Part II and The Wire – 81.5
5. The Jem’Hadar – 79.5

[TOS] Season Two Rating Comparisons

Just as we did with the first season, we’ve compiled some of the ratings for season two of The Original Series all in one place to compare. We took the ratings from a few different reviewers and calculated what their scores would be out of 100. Keep in mind that they originally didn’t rate the episodes with that exact scale, but we tried to accurately translate their rating.

We once again took a look at Jordan Hoffman‘s reviews, blogger for StarTrek.com, Jamahl Epsicokhan who runs Jammer’s Reviews, Kethinov, another Star Trek reviewer, and the duo that is Treknobabble.

The episode with the lowest average rating was The Omega Glory (The one where Kirk teaches aliens how to properly understand the Constitution of America.) which had a score of 27.

Everyone liked Mirror, Mirror just a bit more than us, but overall there weren’t a lot of big discrepancies between one reviewer and the rest. We also thought The Ultimate Computer was okay, but the rest of the reviewers liked it very much.

Here are the top 5 according to the averaged scores:

1. The Doomsday Machine – 96
2. The Trouble With Tribbles – 94
3. Mirror, Mirror – 90
4. Amok Time – 85
5. Journey To Babel – 83 Continue reading
