Exactly. He has access to a holodeck that can create anything he desires I'm pretty sure his stuff is mild compared to the freaky gooseberry fool that some of the crew indulge in.

Good point!

Riker's outrage that someone would recreate members of the crew on the holodeck like this was clearly coming from a more personal space than he would let on. "how dare you do this Barclay! Only I, the great commander Riker, get to program versions of the female crew to fawn all over me!"

We all know that Starfleet employ a special clean-up crew especially for after Riker has used the holodeck.

Id love an episode where Picard kills a whale and spends the whole episode getting the oil out. It'd just be the grimmest WTF episode ever.

I just watched the season 4 episode where Noonien Soong summons Data.

That was a really good one. Data doesn't mention Lore to any of the Enterprise crew which I thought was funny.

That was back when the Borg were a force to be reckoned with and used super sparingly.
That's how they should have stayed as the mysterious all powerful bad guys who just pop up and cause absolute carnage and then are gone again and the Federation has to try and scrounge together massive fleets at the mere sight of a single cube :wub: .

Agreed, the Borg were definitely a case of diminishing returns.

The episode after Best of Both World's is great in a very understated way.

Watched that Night Terrors episode again. Love that one. It manages to be unsettling as strawberry float, and it has a really nice idea behind it which is resolved in a cool way (the circling moon thing I mean).

That's exactly the scene that unsettled me! Crusher is a complete boss during it, to be fair to her.

As background I've had on the episode of TNG where Data was considering dating someone and other people were advising him to think about it carefully, consider her feelings, etc, but when Data went to see Riker he was just basically "strawberry float yeah, she's hot dude!"

I watched this one the other day. The last scene broke my strawberry floating heart.

I'm sure Riker was literally around the corner ready to comfort her.
