I'd have her appear on a desktop viewer in a conversation with Robert but if there's no story need for her to appear in a whole episode I wouldn't bother.
When did Trip die? All I saw was holodeck program installed by Section 31 in order to hide the biggest conspiracy of all.
That was in a TNG episode. It doesn’t count.
Are we sure it wasn't a Picard season 3 episode? While Geordi got the bridge looking pretty good it would explain why that Enterprise-D corridor didn't look all that correct. Geordi slacked off once getting to the other parts of the ship rebuilt.
The great irony being that the original TNG episode on which that mess was based comes from one of the worst seasons of that series yet is...kinda great.
One of my favorite TNG episodes of all time, and yes I mean that.
"The Pegasus" is an hour of solid entertainment and above average for a Season 7 offering. And then eleven years later they had to go and sully its memory.
Terry O'Quinn should have been in more Star Trek.
Well it's certainly showed Jean Luc Picard's hypocrisy front and center. PIcard loves it when he has the information but can't pass it along; but when his first officer is in a situation where he has the information, and an admiral in his chain of command has told him he can't say anything to anyone else, what does the card do? He threatens to 'make changes' in the ship's command structure (IE threatens to remove Riker from his executive officer position), simply because Riker chooses to follow the chain of the command and not be court-martialed; and it seems like Picard is too much of a chicken shit himself to go face the Admiral and demand the answers he wants.
I mean it's not like the Admiral was making himself unavailable at any point during this situation. If Picard was really that concerned, he could have approached the Admiral himself; or even make a move to relieve the Admiral because he felt the Admiral was putting his ship in a unwarranted and dangerous situation. But no he tries to browbeat his subordinate because he doesn't have the guts to face the Admiral himself.
To be fair Enterprise at least all but said that Pressman was a member of Section 31.
To be fair knowledge of the episode was elevated by ENT using it as the framing device for its finale. The original is a pretty great episode but it doesn't exactly stick in the consciousness like other TNG episodes.
It's funny to me because that episode is probably the first one that comes to my mind when I think of TNG.
The LDS crossover episode will be shown at SDCC this Saturday

I was going to buy the season one discs....then youtube had it for free. Cool!
SNW is so good that it made me come back here to the BBS, after I had planned to just fade off. SNW offers tons of good discussion material....on its own, and in relation to other Trek.
I have always been a diehard fan of TOS. But I have ended up liking SNW even better. And, for me, that is saying a lot.
Great casting, great acting, and great scripting....across the board. Very well done!
My one objection, thus far, is M'Benga letting his daughter go like that. Yes, the entity in TFF that claimed to be God is in the future and not yet encountered, but the possibilities for falsehood always exist and it felt like M'Benga trusted the whole thing too quickly.
I'm not terribly keen on the lavish interiors of the Enterprise, and I am...."aggressively uninterested"
in doing the dishes the old-fashioned way, but I can live with those minor things. The exterior differences of the ship, and other things that seem to conflict with TOS....I'm no longer bothered by any of that. I have no significant criticisms of the visual aesthetics.
The one thing I would like to see added?
I would like the opportunity to take on the role of Matt Decker.

They just confuse me. I can't always get a sense of where we are in the space, especially in people's quarters. There are times when I have to make myself ignore it (like in last weeks episode) or I miss what's going on in the scene. (Although as an excuse to watch again...)I'm not terribly keen on the lavish interiors of the Enterprise,
