PATRON TIER LIST - TNG S6E8 - A Fistful of Datas

Always an episode that I remember, but its definitely moved down to a A from what would have bene a S some 20+ years ago. I think for me the problems arise from the almost complete lack of actual problem solving in the episode. As an exercise of creating a tv show - costume, acting, etc. - it is excellent. Seeing night court brent spiner is always a treat. But it is a virtually risk-less story. Even with the abilities of an android, and the safety systems disabled, i was never in fear for worf - even he barely noticed when he got shot. I guess there was some fear towards alexander, but that's about it. Worf's smile at the end though...

S or A all the way ❤️

This episode was always a favorite of mine, had to give it an S for sentimentality

Cringe

It’s a B for me. Solid holodeck hijinks episode and some nice Worf/Deanna/Alexander moments. Brent Spiner gets to have fun. It’s a perfectly nice episode but it also doesn’t really jump out at me as particularly memorable.

Totally fun episodes, and nice to see Alexander & Worf not be at odds with each other for once.

Not a Top 10 episode. But.... Holodeck, Data? Even more Data? A!!!

For me, it was kindof in between B and A. This episode doesn't have the greatest of reputations, and I certainly used to not like it, now I'd consider it a "guilty pleasure," and "better than I thought." It's totally fluff, but enjoyable fluff is just as valuable as "deep, traumatic, emotional" episodes.

It is a B episode that I enjoyed so much it gets an upgrade to A. Brent Spinner episodes are almost A by default. I could even see a justification of "S" but I assume that is just loving watching him Shine. But I Was a fan since his days as a recurring character on Night Court.

A tier - great Brent Spiner play and I love the Warf/Alexander/Troi dynamic that the show has been developing.

A for Micheal Dorn's comedic timing and Sirtis getting to have some fun for once.

This is a fun one. I won't say its great, but I always enjoy when Trek does a Western. I almost say B but it's fun enough and memorable enough that I go A.

Excellent for some great laughs. Inserting Data's poetry into the play script was a stroke of genius! "Felis catus is your taxonomic nomenclature, An endothermic quadruped, carnivorous by nature?"

Kinda surprised the options aren’t all “Data”

Durango can arrest me anytime.

Funny- generally don't like the Holodeck episodes in ANY of the Star Trek series since its an excuse to deviate from the show's themes. Gave it an A for Brent Spiner's range

Complete dud. Nothing remotely entertaining aside from the return of Ode to Spot

Great fun in the vein of Deja Q and Qpid... They'll hate it XD

I love it, i give it A, but it is my lowest ranking A of the Season.

C tier, and I'm being generous because of the humorous intro and the way it brings back Ode to Spot. A very skippable episode. I'd watch "the Game" over this one any day.

S for Brent Spiner alone
