We now rejoin our regularly scheduled thread : Star Trek : The Lost Generation....already in progress.....

Ok...what episodes of Next Generation actually MOVED you in some way? Made you sad, happy, angry?

Whenever I watch "All Good Things", I am sad because that was the very LAST episode. It was a wonderful show with a long run, and many excellent episodes. It was goodbye.

I was there for "Encounter at Farpoint" on September 28,
1987. I thought the show was dumb. I watched it with a friend. we laughed at how bad we thought it was. By the end of that first season, we hadseen "Conspiracy", "Skin of Evil", "Hide and Q", "Arsenal Of Freedom", and a few other episodes that were very good. We began to like the show.

The episode that endeared Next Generation to me was "The Dauphin". This was the one where Wesley falls in love with a very special girl. No spoilers in case there are a few here who never saw the show, but I recall saying "Wow" a few times during that episode. There were a few funny lines in that episode, too. It was about first love. Very well done.

"The Offspring. " I cried the very first time I saw that one. VERY moving.

"Relics". Scotty is in this one. As you know, he died a year ago or so. I always liked him. He was a fun character and a good actor. The episode was very good.
It is a bit sad seeing Scotty in this one, knowing that he is gone. It was his next to last appearance in a Trek show or movie. A great way to remember him.

"Who Watches The Watchers". The dialogue is excellent. It is deeply moving, with it's themes of God and worship and beliefs. I am a very spiritual person, and admire the sensitivity with which this subject was dealt with.


More on this later..........
