Best Moment EVER in STNG

Wow. There are so many for me.

Definitley when Riker yells "Fire" in BoBW.

The scene in "Chain of Command" with four lights....

Plenty of others, but can't think straight(have had a few beers)

He didn't yell. It was more of a direct command with calm and conviction, meaning he meant business.

This

"Fire" is great too, and probably would have had more impact if I had seen the episode as it aired (I didn't get into TNG until the 6th-7th seasons).

Best funniest line is probably

Q (as human):
What do I have to do to convince you people?

Worf:
Die.
 
Mine would be:

The moment the established universe becomes the au in Yesterday's Ent. I can still hear the WTF comments even after all these years.

Fire!

Picard's Measure of a Man speech.

Worf refusing to give the Romulan his blood even after Picard has spoken to him.
 
The ones that stand out in my mind...

"Let us make sure history never forgets the name..Enterprise" is at the top.

Guinan stabbing Q in the hand with a fork.

Picard having to admit that they couldn't stand up to the Borg.

The devestation at Wolf 359.
 
I wouldn't say it's the best moment ever, but a contender that hasn't been mentioned: the opening of "The Child", with its triumphant fanfare, beautiful effects shots, and sweeping shot of the bridge, revealing Worf and Wesley's new uniforms and Riker's beard. It was not only the first episode of a second season that people might have wagered against a year earlier, but also long-delayed by the writers' strike. The show was back to stay, and this opening celebrated the moment.
 
Gotta contribute the intro from "Cause and Effect", the end of it with the Enterprise fucking exploding! :eek: I remember seeing that and just yelling "WHAT THE FUCK?!" out loud :lol:
 
One of my favorite TNG lines is Q to Worf. "Ah Mr. Worf, eat any good books lately?"

"Fire" from BoBW was a great scene but the second part kinda kills it when nothing really happens. Although I think this is the first time we ever see anything actually coming from the deflector dish.
 
One of my favorite comedic bits is from "Captain's Holiday". When Picard finds out what the Horga'hn is for, his reaction is priceless.

"Riker...!"

"It's for someone close to you?"
"You could say that."
"Someone you love?"
"I wouldn't go that far."
 
I think a better BOBW moment is the following exchange between Locutus and Riker:

"...if you attempt to intervene, we will destroy you."

"Then take your best shot, Locutus, because we are about to intervene!"

And from Yesterday's Enterprise:

"Federation ship Enterprise, surrender and prepare to be boarded..."

"That'll be the day!"
 
This is why I love you people. You all get this show and it's a part of you like it is a part of me. THIS have been the Best Ever Moment in TNG.
 
I love the scene from "The "Offspring" when Lal picks up Riker and kisses him.

Data: "Commander... what are your intentions toward my daughter?"

The cliff-hanger ending of "Best of the both worlds" is chilling. The different reactions of Shelby and Riker to the news that Picard is a Borg are interesting. Especially when you look at Shelby's speech earlier, when she accuses Riker of not being able to make the big decisions and sit in "the big chair."

Seconded.

I'd also add, for sentimental reasons, Riker's earlier speech, as he demolishes the notion of Data's sentience, finally turning him off. 'Pinocchio is silent, his strings have been cut.' It was the first moment of ST I'd ever seen. I guess it's why I'm here today.
 
It may not feature a member of the main cast (for this particular incarnation of Star Trek) but O'Brien's line from "The Wounded" has always been one of my favorites: "It's not you I hate, Cardassian. I hate what I became because of you."
 
Another good moment is when Worf kills Duras. Whenever I watch that I scream YES!! out loud when Duras gets it.
