Worst Episode This Season [Archive] - KryptonSite Message Forums

My least favorite was Wrath. I thought the episode was a disgrace. I also didn't like Fierce and Blue and didn't think too highly of Siren. I liked Gemini, Bizarro, Kara, Lara, Cure, Hero, parts of Persona, and really liked Fracture (I don't understand why people don't like this one). Traveler made Clark look like an imbecile, but other than that it was interesting. But because he looked like a BDA, I really have to downgrade it. I thought Veritas was somewhat good (the fact that my VCR had the wrong date set up for weeks and didn't tape when I put it on timer tainted this episode for me).

----- Added 3 Minutes later -----

Yep, I have to go with Hero as well, Pete's return left me disappointed. :\

I'm not sure about you, but my disappointment wasn't that he returned (I was waiting a long time for his return) but what they decided to do with him during his return. It was similar in many aspects to Velocity, which was a cool episode, but there's no need repeating stuff that was already done. I wanted to see the seeds of his political partnership with Lex (so he can keep a watchful eye over him) get planted.

...and really liked Fracture (I don't understand why people don't like this one).
I don't get it either, Fracture is one of my favorites. I loved what Clark said to young Alexander just before he left Lex's mind.

"Because you're my friend. And now I know you're here, so I will always keep an eye out for you. I'll always be here for you."

Very Superman-like.
I'm not sure about you, but my disappointment wasn't that he returned (I was waiting a long time for his return) but what they decided to do with him during his return.
I feel the same way, I was really excited about his return. It's how they chose to use him. Ugh. It was like a rehash of season 3, I really wasn't impressed.
I wanted to see the seeds of his political partnership with Lex (so he can keep a watchful eye over him) get planted.
I would have loved to see that, it would give Pete an actual purpose.

I can't believe "Fierce" or "Wrath" arn't on that list, as they are the bottom two in my opinion.

I can't believe that "Fierce" even made it past the cutting floor. In the five worst episodes of the ENTIRE series for me.

The Lexana scene in Fracture made me hurl...that's why I didn't like it. Plus, I've never enjoyed Lex-centric episodes.

I'm trying to narrow it down to one poor episode, but I really can't. There are things about all the episodes that I love, and things about all of them that I dislike. I'm tempted to say that I disliked Gemini the most, just because I'm tired of the guest-starring terrorists.

Got to be Hero. Only episode this season that left me unsatisfied afterwards. Fierce and Wrath were alright but nothing superb. Cure was alright too but the only thing that saved that episode for me was Dean Cain as a guest star. All other episodes were fantastic IMO.

Fierce, it was so bad it moved past being funny and right around to painful.

Yasise

04-09-2008, 03:26 AM

I've to say "Fierce" was the worst, followed by Kara, Lara, Blue and Hero.

I liked Bizarro, Persona and Traveler the most so far and the ones I didn't mention, were o.k. episodes, IMHO.

Hero definitely tops them all. It was like we were watching a stride gum advert..exept with some smallville cast members running around doing absolutely nothing. SHAMEFUL!!!!

Action was corny. Fierce was stupid. Wrath was crap. Lara was dumb. And finally, Blue was a useless episode.

Fierce is the only episode from this season that I really disliked. What was the point of the episode? The rest of the eps from S7 range on a scale from mediocre to good to great IMO.

VickiLVCM

04-09-2008, 12:41 PM

I have to say Hero. It was one really bad commercial. Fierce was pretty bad too.

*instantly pleased that "Wrath" isn't on the list* :p

I say that "Hero" was the worst episode of the season. I dunno, but despite all the product placement it still felt off...

I have to agree, "Wrath" was surprising good, I have to go with "Hero" as well...

ClarkyBoy14

04-09-2008, 01:00 PM

I don't really undestand the reasoning behind some of the options. :\ "Gemini" and "Traveler" were both pretty much well-received episodes by the K-Site fandom and "Fracture" and "Veritas" were decently received as well, yet you left "Fierce" off of the list. :confused:

I'd say "Fierce" followed by "Hero," but all the episodes this season have had their good parts.

Jaderoyale

04-09-2008, 02:09 PM

I'm sorry, but that has to be the most ridiculous reason i have ever heard for not liking a character. I get annoyed with all the Lana haters, but at least the reasons they give for disliking Lana are valid and make sense.

'His face is so irritating"?
That is not a reason. I'm sorry, but its not.

Hero was so bad it was funny... at lest for me. I spent most of the episode going, thats so bad, *snicker* Why do I watch this show again *giggle* Hey look Lex broke Pete's arm... *snicker* ... Fierce was mostly a lot of blinking and pain...

Fierces was the most awkward episode of SV i can even remember watching.

I had no problems with it, it was a character building episode for Kara and anytime you bring on a new character, you need an episode or 2 like that

You need a kryptonite twister, corny beauty pageants, introduction of a random love triangle, and the most unemotional/stupid reunion scene I've ever seen?

The only good thing I can remember in the entire episode was that Shelby was in it.

However I will give you that it was not the worst episode of Television I have ever scene. That distinction belongs to Centennial Charmed.

Hero was darn awful! It was boring and stupid. Felt like a filler episode that was really only there cause they wanted to bring Pete back!

Action, Wrath and Fierce were also pretty bad!

As somebody else pointed above, it wasn't much different then Freak of the Week episodes in the first 2 seasons. Since she was a new character, she needed an episode like this(although it could have been done better i agree). I am suprised though it not on the list because it does seem to have alot of haters.

Valerie

04-09-2008, 05:47 PM

Hero was a disappointment. They could have done so much more with Pete's character. I hoped to see a Pete, Clark, Chloe reunion, but all three of them were not even in a scene together. It was a weak plot and I felt cheated.

skully

04-09-2008, 07:03 PM

I thought Fierce was easily the worst episode of the season. Added nothing to the season back story, the acting was ordinary, and Clark was made to look a bigger BDA than normal (oh, you can blast green-K away with your heat vision, why didn't I think of that?). A totally pointless episode.

Cellist

04-09-2008, 08:36 PM

I only have problems with Hero if I think about how much better it could have been...I like it for what it is, though. I just try not to think about the potential.

Vergon6

04-09-2008, 08:45 PM

I felt "Fierce" was definitely the worst episode. I thought "Hero" was actually ok, but definitely not one of the best episodes of the season. The product placement was really really (yes I mention to put two reallys ;)) annoying though. "Action" and "Wrath" had some cheesy moments too.

Other than that, the season has been pretty decent. Now maybe the choices the writers have made haven't all lined up to what I would like to see, but I am speaking strictly about taking the episodes as they are.

That is not a reason. I'm sorry, but its not.

I simply don't like him.So what?Should I be put into jail for that?I don't like him and that's it.If you like him that's ok with me I cannot tell you whom you should like or dislike.

Its just saying someones face is irritating, to me is not a valid reason for not liking someone.

yeah, I didn't like this episode either. The Lara-Clark interaction could have been so much more warm and emotional. Sorry, but if I as a mother would see my only child for the first time after so many years (even if she wasn't really there), I would have acted much more emotional. Maybe I'm too sentimental about things like that, but that was a huge letdown for me in that episode.
It had the potential to be much better than that and IMHO they wasted it.

I have to agree. After Fierce, I thought Blue was the next worst. Lots of fans went on about the mythos-rich quality of the episode, but I thought it was very ordinary. So my "worst-two" are definitely Fierce and Blue. Yeah, Hero was Stride-riddled but Pete was back, for heavens sake, and he'd hardly changed. SJIII did a good job, so I didn't mark Hero too harshly.

ClarkyBoy14

04-12-2008, 10:14 AM

I thought "Fierce" was pretty awful. The plot was just dumb, and the three actresses who portrayed the "Weather Girls" were just horrible actresses. Although I will admit that I liked Kara's plot, but the rest of the episode wasn't worth it.

I liked that it had a lot of light-hearted/funny moments. Really, IMO, none of the episodes this season have been bad. Some have had bad parts, but the good mostly outweighs the bad.

Hydra

04-13-2008, 01:36 AM

^ Actually yeah I hadn't thought about that. Hero was bloody awful. But I think I'll stick with Fierce simply because Hero at least had Pete in it, even if he was horribly misused. Fierce made Kara into a dumb shallow b****y crook, and yet somehow she was able to break out of Jail after being arrested (rightfully, as far as anyone not pertaining to kryptonian interests was concerned), and yet upon breaking out of prison suffers absolutely no consequences. At least in 'Heat' (Season 2 episode 2) Clark got off with a warning, but Kara just got away scott free.
