Goodness, don't even think the name of that horrid episode!
In all fairness, though, I listened to the DVD commentary on it and got a little bit of insight into why it was so awful--just no firm admission that the script sucked donkey balls. I think Martin Wood was trying to be diplomatic, since Mallozzi's the show runner and all. Still, staging problems were quite a problem and made for an awkward shoot from the get-go.
In short, it doesn't seem that "Irresponsible" will be the yardstick by which they measure good episodes, but, rather, a learning experience on how to avoid shooting terrible ones.

Hope so, anyway.
