    Trek Marry Kill

    There are 967 episodes of Star Trek. Some are good, some are great, and the rest we’ll still watch from time to time because, why not? Star Trek is like pizza or sex: even when it’s bad, it’s still kinda good. 

    It’s a Star Trek podcast that seeks to establish the pecking order for its extensive canon. Which episodes are classic examples of Star Trek or simply good (TREK), which are all-timers (MARRY), and which are episodes that are okay to watch just once and then forget about (KILL)? 

    Hosts Bryan and Kristen and the occasional special guest ask a series of questions to arrive at a final judgment, questions like, “What part of this story would be taught at Starfleet Academy?” “What’s the Best Trek Trope?” “Could the episode have been hornier and would that have made it better?” and many more. It’s sort of like playing F***, Marry, Kill, but a lot more fun because it’s about Star Trek!

    We’re trekmarrykpod on Instagram and Bluesky, and www.trekmarrykillpod.com on the web where you can see all of our standings.

    VOY: "The Thaw" (s2e23) with James Thorpey of The Monster Rally Podcast Apr 28, 2026
    Show notes

    WHAT FEAR WANTS is to keep itself alive and only Captain Janeway is clever enough to outwit a computer program that's become the embodiment of that extreme emotion. Are We Sure It Was Bad? Month concludes with the episode of Star Trek: Voyager where This Is Spinal Tap's and Better Call Saul's Michael McKean guest stars as a killer clown. Joining Bryan to decide if it's a TREK, MARRY, or KILL is James Thorpey, one of the hosts of Geekscape's Monster Rally Podcast.

    TOS: "The Way to Eden" (s3e20) with Mark Farinas & Ryan Thomas Riddle of The Ship Full of Jerks Podcast Apr 21, 2026
    Show notes

    HIP HIP HIPPIE! The Ship Full of Jerks take command of the podcast once again as "Are We Sure It Was Bad?" Month rolls along. The Enterprise takes into custody a band of hippies who are trying to find the mythical planet of Eden, which for some reason is very close to the Neutral Zone. To them, Kirk is a square and Spock is cool. Also, Chekov has a preexisting relationship with one of them. Is the episode a TREK, MARRY, or KILL?

    This episode has a three-way tie! Vote in the poll below through the Spotify app OR go to the poll on our Bluesky page (trekmarrykpod). More importantly, check out Ship Full of Jerks wherever you get your podcasts!

    TNG: "The Royale" (s2e12) with writer Cory Marciel Apr 14, 2026
    Show notes

    ALIEN ANT HOTEL. Riker, Data, and Worf get caught in an alien habitat setup to mimic the story of a trashy airport novel carried by a long-dead NASA astronaut. "Are We Sure It Was Bad?" Month continues with this season two headscratcher from TNG. Will Bryan and guest co-host Cory give this one a TREK, MARRY, or KILL?

    DS9: "Move Along Home" (s1e9) Apr 07, 2026
    Show notes

    QUARK THE GAMER. We kick off "Are We Sure It Was Bad?" Month with one of the more memed episodes of Star Trek: the episode where Sisko, Kira, Dax, and Bashir become trapped in a board game brought through the wormhole by gaming aliens from the Gamma Quadrant. Shereese the Sci Fi Savage beams in to see if this one is a TREK, MARRY, or KILL.

    LD-"The Best Exotic Nanite Hotel" & "A Farewell to Farms" (s5e3-4) with writers Avery Kaplan & Ollie Kaplan Apr 03, 2026
    Show notes

    HASTE MAKES TASTE? Bryan is joined by the Kaplans, Avery & Ollie, to talk about their love of Lower Decks, the worst episode of Star Trek in Ollie's opinion, and thoughts on how Star Trek should leverage its many alien cuisines. As for the two episodes up for judgment, in the first one, Mariner backslides into a season 3 characterization while T'Lynn reveals another awesome aspect of her personality. In the second, Dr. Migleemo's world proves to be a seven-course headache for the Cerritos crew!

    SNW: "New Life and New Civilizations" (s3e10) Mar 31, 2026
    Show notes

    EYES WIDE SH*T? It's the third season finale of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and it would appear that the writing staff used the opportunity to combine three or four partial storylines they'd been noodling with all year only to realize that this might wind up being the series finale. Does the stew of ideas and spectacle make this a TREK, MARRY, or KILL?

    SNW: "Terrarium" (s3e9) Mar 24, 2026
    Show notes

    GORNTEGAS? Erica Ortegas finally gets a substantial spotlight and it's a take on Enemy Mine and the TNG episode "Darmok." Can the helm officer of the Enterprise survive in an inhospitable place with a member of the Gorn Hegemony, her sworn enemy?

    SNW: "Four-and-a-Half Vulcans" (s3e8) Mar 17, 2026
    Show notes

    HENRY ALONSO MYERS presents his Star Trek-ified version of Birth of a Nation in the latest "it's okay because they're aliens" racial comedy that Strange New Worlds is the genre they've pioneered. But does this one match up well with, say, "Spock Amok," or "Charades," the episode to which this is a soft sequel? Bryan and Kristen try not to concern themselves with the plot and just examine this one as an expression of... something.

    SNW: "What Is Starfleet?" (s3e7) Mar 10, 2026
    Show notes

    BETO'S FIRST MOVIE isn't quite what it was sold as. It's not feature length and it's more of a hit piece than an examination of what Starfleet is, and that's probably for the best as it's clear that Erica Ortegas's lil' bro has some serious problems with what's happened to his sister in service of the fleet. Are Bryan and Kristen impressed by this format-shifting episode of Strange New Worlds?

    SNW: "The Sehlat Who Ate Its Tail" (s3e6) Mar 03, 2026
    Show notes

    TRUSTING HIS FARRAGUT. Lt. Commander Kirk is thrust into command of the USS Farragut, but thankfully, he has Spock, Scotty, Uhura, and Nurse Chapel there to help him get through a hairy situation. Meanwhile, aboard a captured Enterprise, Chris and La'an play Lee & Starbuck, skulking the corridors taking out Cylons -- I-I mean ancient astronauts who've lost their humanity and are trying to strip the ship for parts.
