I've picked a few of MY favorites, but didnt' know If I should poll it with 7+ other, or just let it open. We'll see how it goes after this poll runs for a while. My personal Favorite. Datalore. We first meet Lore and it's quite the creepy episode as well. Granted, I LOVE Q, but his first 2 outings weren't that great. Conspiracy is a close second, but Lore came back in Brothers, Decent 1&2 (even if StarTrek.com DOESN'T remember he was in Decent  ) The Big Goodbye is our first look at Dixon Hill and the Holodeck, and a nice little comedy. 11001001... Just kinda cool. Skin of Evil... Well, Tasha dies a meaningless death, something that Gene was very happy to be able to show how sometimes... people just die. How about you? If you can't remember, check out www.startrek.com/library/episodes_tng.asp for the list and synopsises. We'll vote on Season Two on May 7th (when the next Box Set comes out) |

Ive voted for Conspiracy, to me that is when TNG showed that it wasn't just another run-of-the-mill sci-fi series and was a truely class show and worthy of the title Star Trek ;D

I don't think that I can pick a specific episodes, but a few I liked were:
The Big Goodbye
Home Soil
Heart of Glory
The Arsenal of Freedom
We'll Always Have Paris
and Conspiracy...

It was a toss-up between "Encounter..." and "Skin..."
"Encounter" did a better job of revealing how the crew would interact with each other in future episodes than most of the other Trek pilots did and I agree that they didn't handle Q well in most of the later shows but this was the defining ep that set the standard for the ones that worked.
In "Skin," we got to see how Tasha felt about each of the main characters but it was too much too late. It told the important message that you should let people know how you feel about them while you're alive because it's pointless to leave them a message when you're dead because they can't thank you personally and return the message! That was its strength and its weakness as a standalone episode.
The deciding factor was that in "Encounter" we got to see Deana and Tasha in skirts! YES!!!!!!!!!!

^^^ Well, he's consistant in his persona, isn't he... Give me a little credit, my dear! I didn't comment on the fact that you have a naked Betazoid as your avatar, did I? I didn't say that I was disappointed when they only showed rear shots and shots from the shoulders up of Lwaxana in that episode, did I? I didn't even mention once how well Majel held up over the years if that wasn't a body double in those strategic shots! Nor did I say that it was inconsistent as well as disappointing that Deana didn't appear in the buff as well since she's a member of the "bride's" family!!!!! See, I can control my enthusiasm sometimes, can't I? I don't have sex on the brain all the time, do I? Now if you'll excuse me, I'll have to take my dirty mac to the cleaners while I go to the adult video store...I mean the supermarket to buy some hot melons...I mean honeydew melons! Boy, you folks are a corrupting influence on me!  |

I heard a great Viagra joke the other day, Peter. I'll set up a thread in Neutral Zone for your reading pleasure. I'd tell it here, but you know how it is. |

Well, now that I've had my season 1 box set for a couple of weeks, I have to say, an episode that I've really enjoyed seeing again is "Haven". Just a nice episode, great interaction between Troi and Riker, and gosh, it really makes you kinda hope for Troi and Wyatt to have their lovely marriage. By the way.. I LOVE the season 1 set... I'm all ready for them to bring in season 2.. and season 3.. and 4, 5, 6, and 7... then DS9..  |
