The Conspiracy is one of the best episodes of the first 2 seasons of TNG and I'll argue with anyone who says otherwise.

Latest educational nugget from re-watching TNG: introducing the death penalty for all crimes, no matter how small, allows you to live in a utopian society of nymphomaniacs. :datass:

I don't know if you could find anyone who prefers Pulaski.

And that's even considering the episode where Crusher bangs a ghost.

Pulaski appeared to be an attempt to make a "gruff" Bones like character but without any of understanding of the underlying warmth or humanity.

And without the massive space racism that Bones exhibited towards Spock.

Pulaski did that to Data instead.

Picard is getting a second season, they gave Discovery a second season so not that big of a news item.

My TNG S1 rewatch continues and bloody Q has turned up again to do more cosplay and flirt with Picard. :lol:

It's rare for streaming shows not to get a second season before the first one even releases these days :lol:

I've been re-watching TNG recently. Currently on S3 EP 12 it's gotten a lot better the first season has some real stinkers. That said I don't think it's without merit, always enjoy me a good Q episode.

Amusement under late capitalism is the prolongation of work.

Q's the best.
It's great that they have a character that can do whatever the strawberry float he likes and is pretty much a God but other than cock about he's not malevolent.

He has to be in Picard and even if it's just a short segment I'd have him at the start of episode 1.

Watched the DS9 finale last night. Still love it.

The little musical cue of The Ministrel Boy being played when O'Brien finds the missing Alamo soldier. Hit me right in the feeling part of my brain.

Also felt bad for Garak. Virtually everything or everyone he had is either dead or destroyed at the end. I mean, he's a really dubious character, but you grow to love him immensely. Much like the rest of the crew.

Gah, it's such a great show.

Well it was never his real form anyway was it? He can just say "Oh Picard I thought I'd age my physical appearance so as not to make you feel too old and decrepit!"

That or they can work some de-ageing magic on him!
