What is the Worst Album?

Post by American Eagle »

I was reading through The Official Guide, and noticed some albums that have many of my least favorite episodes. They often make up for it with good episodes, except for two:

Album 33: Virtual Realities
  1. Something Cliqued Between Us
  2. Bethany's Imaginary Friend
  3. The YAK Problem
  4. Where There's Smoke
  5. Blackgaard's Revenge
Album 34: In Your Wildest Dreams
  1. Sunset Bowlawater
  2. Idol Minds
  3. Two Roads
  4. Bethany's Flood
  5. No Boundaries
  6. The Seven Deadly Dwarves
What are your least favorite albums?

I'd have to say the same, albums 33 and 34 are definitely my least favorite.

She left many of us behind. She left us heartbroken. And though we cry now there'll come a time when we'll laugh. Because we'll see her again someday. We'll be with her in heaven. And when we go to heaven she'll be there to greet us. She'll be there to say "Welcome home." -From a poem that SnC wrote about her grandmother

Probably Album 34. Some of the shows were so unrealistic.

I never said it was 'bad'. I just found it.............uninteresting, uncompelling, and for me unmotivating. But, as I've said, I have not listened to all the albums. I just always seem to want to listen to something else more.

I haven't listened to all the albums, so I can't really say. I do, however, like the majority of the eps on Albums 33 and 34. If they aren't split, I'm good.

The difference between split eps and Novacom, however, was that Novacom was actually, y'know, EPICALLY AWESOME. The split episodes seemed to be like random stuff thrown together with not much of a real plot and little to no character development, something that is part of the whole point of any kind of continuity. Thankfully, they were dropped after about sixteen of them were produced--and sixteen out of seven hundred and nine episodes isn't exactly horrible.

Novacom was dumb. Probably not as bad as the split episodes right before, though.

Obviously people have different tastes. ;) Darkness Before Dawn while not perfect was incredibly epic. Novacom tried to up everything and it ended up too dragged out, over the top, and boring, IMO. Sure, it had a few interesting moments but out of that many episodes that was bound to happen. ;)

I actually didn't mind 33 and 34, it was album 51 that got to me.

I hate split episodes with a passion! :x

So Albums 33 and 34 obviously win OTR's Most Hated Albums award. :yes:

What's wrong with split episodes? I know some of the storylines may be slightly simplistic or childish at times, but they aren't bad. :noway:

Frankly, I found most of them to be annoyingly childish. That's not to say that I don't like some of them though.

Yah, I agree EMBEE. I did find many of the split episodes to be pretty childish as well. I liked them though!
um, yes, that does make me childish. And I'm not ashamed to admit it!

I didn't really like the split episodes, I can just listen to them now without feeling like it's melting my brain.

Stupid, stupid LL key!

Technically, I don't think any of the albums are bad. Some of them just don't appeal to me. This thread is BLASPHEMY!
