    Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 2x12 - "Through the Valley of Shadows"

    What a great flash forward scene showing Pike’s ultimate sacrifice. The more this season develops, the more I see a direct connection to the abandoned Discovery in “Calypso”. That is going to end up being anything but some random Short Trek story. Perhaps the auto destruct will be blocked by...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 2x04 - "An Obol for Charon"

    I agree. This had all the hallmarks of a great Trek episode. The near death scene between Burnham and Saru was really well done by both actors.

    "Reunion"

    Believe it or not Picard DOES actually put a formal reprimand in his record...but that's the extent of it.

    What do you think Q almost said to Picard in AGT?

    I've always thought this too. Throughout the series, Q has mentioned that humanity is progressing faster than we (the Q Continuum) expected. He alluded to that in Q-Who but I think the idea was raised in Farpoint and possibly Hide and Q too.

    The meaning of the title "Starship Mine"

    I thought it was one (or both) of these two, too.

    Excellent Guest Stars Of TNG...

    Not yet mentioned: James Sloyan as Admiral Aladar Jarok ("The Defector"). He popped up in in at least one other series as well (DS9 I think).

    "Reunion"

    Taking my girlfriend on a first-time trip through TNG and, after watching "Sins of the Father", I decided to go straight into the continuation of the Worf arc to "Reunion." I forgot how excellent this episode was. First, K'Ehleyr was such a strong character it was always great to see her (even...

    Collars or No Collars?

    You beat me to it. Many don't realize there was that early to mid S3 period of time where you had multiple variations going.

    Galaxy class

    I think the E-D looked incredible on the big screen, especially when you consider it was never built for that resolution originally (heck, it wast built for HD either and also looks great). For generations they repainted the model and, as previously mentioned, brought out the 6 footer which...

    Things you noticed in TNG HD that you didn't in SD

    Generally speaking the biggest standout to me in HD is the amazing quality of all of the physical models. I watched "Reunion" the other day which was the debut of the Klingon Attack Cruiser and it looks incredible.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Short Treks 1x03 - "The Brightest Star"

    It kind of reminded me of "The Island" except the Kelpians here know exactly what was going to happen to them. As i said re Calypso in that thread, I really enjoyed the emotion and "feeling" this episode brought in the same vein as some of the better Trek episodes. Those are always the...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Short Treks 1x02 - "Calypso"

    Finally got around to this one. i'm totally okay with not having greater context and backstory and enjoyed it for what it was: a very well-acted, emotional 18 minute human journey the way Trek does best.

    Troi in a miniskirt in the first season

    I thought they really nailed her makeup in by the time early season 6 came around. I think she had more of a tan/bronzer as well. Compare that early S6 shot that's been posted above with something from S3 when she was white as a ghost.

    Has TNG Aged Well?

    The HD upgrade made a HUGE difference, but I agree that S 3-7 look the best by today's standards. The default set lighting and film stock used in S1 and 2 make me immediately associate it with 80s. I remember watching the S3 opener back in the day and everything felt "fresher."

    When should we expect the Season 4 theatrical event?

    I'm still holding out for AGT. Honestly that's the only other one I'd really wanna see in the theater.

    Worf's Propensity For Stating the Obvious

    Troi is by far the biggest offender.

    Early CGI test footage of the E-D

    Pretty cool! Also, check out the E-A unboxing video. Wow!

    Season THREE OFFICIAL TNG Blu-Ray Discussion Thread

    The redone cgi enterprise that was under construction was pretty sweet, HOWEVER, HOW DID CBS-D NOT ADD THE MISSING PORT THRUSTER EFFECT! :scream: Lots of awesome unique shots of the 6 footer in this one though.

    Season THREE OFFICIAL TNG Blu-Ray Discussion Thread

    Anyone else love Booby Trap? I've seen it a million times but it has wonderful character moments and the music is great, especially when they realize they're caught in the trap and it goes from a small power drain to being totally stuck. One of the best comedic lines in the series that's often...
