Give one of your "skip" episodes a second chance every now and then. You might be surprised. (startrek.website)

"Take Me Out to the Holosuite" didn't become my new favorite episode or anything, but I did enjoy it after years of skipping it because I got bored with the baseball plot the first time I saw it.

I also always skipped VOY: Initiations and had completely forgotten Aron Eisenberg was in that one until the last re-watch when I opted not to skip any episodes.

Skip episodes become brand new episodes after enough time has passed! I recently watched "The Mark of Gideon" and had absolutely NO memory of it. Yay new trek!

Also you're the second person I saw on here refer to “Take Me Out to the Holosuite” as anything other than great, and while I find that surprising I am glad to hear you're on board!

They absolutely do! I was thinking that earlier. They become like your own personal "lost episodes".

Counterpoint: Shades of Gray

Fair (counter) point. That was basically a clip show which are fair game for skips especially with home media / streaming.
