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!
