Which episodes of Trek did you find the funniest?

[King of the owls]

Obviously the Tribbles based episodes are amazing and a real benchmark for comedy in Star Trek. And of course the 'Naked Time'. So I'll talk some other good comedy episodes.

I have to agree with 'Take me out to holosuite' being a pretty fun one. It's not perfect by any means but there's something endearing about it.

'The magnificent Ferengi' Again not a perfect episode but I find it hilarious. In fact most of the Quark centered/Fenrengi focused episodes are pretty funny. Not all of them, some of them are 'eh' or downright cringe worthy.(-cough-profit and lace -cough-) But for the most part I feel like the Ferengi' episodes were hits more often than misses.

'In the Cards' is a classic and I don't know what to add that's hasn't already been said by others.


For TOS 'A Piece of Action' is stupid and when you think about it it's surreal this is a real Star Trek episode someone pitched and someone else approved to do. A planet of mobsters sounds like something that might happen in less than serious DnD campaign. And I love it. Spock and Kirk are the in fine form and it's some classic TOS goofiness.

'Shore Leave' is another classic one.

'Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy' is a blast as well 'The Bride of Chaotica' Voyager was a hot mess a good 50% of the time but these two episodes really showcase two of the show's strengths. Being able to mock itself on occasion and The doctor.

"A fistful of Data'" is another blast of episodes and one of the better 'holodeck' based episodes out there.


Enterprise has no real funny episodes and even the episodes that are unintentionally funny aren't that special.(At least to me.) Which is a shame since if the characters were written better and it wasn't poorly plotted out we could of had some pretty funny/fun episodes.

Oh come on. Really? No love for "Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy"?

I gave it an honourable mention, and said it was probably better than the comedies on some of the other series, but I was going for one episode per series.

Tinker Tenor is a great episode and I really like the consistent light-hearted atmosphere throughout the episode.

vi. Enterprise - In a mirror darkly: If you've seen it I don't think I have to explain this one either. I love it don't get me wrong but goddamn is it silly.

I did like In A Mirror Darkly but certain things about this episode did make me laugh but that was only because all of their Mirror Counterparts were so evil and also their clothes were like "we are trying to go with that says, "ENT jumpsuits but evil....". Also, having all the female characters in mid-drift cut offs was also kind of funny- only in a way of, evil= sexy:





That being said, the Mirror Universe has always been a fun place to go to and I wish that VOY did a Mirror episode but the closest we got was that one episode where it turns out it was just a simulation of a (semi-true, semi-not true) history lesson.
