Best TNG episodes?

...There are still some horrible episodes ahead, like "Up the Long Ladder" (I think it's episode 18 of season 2) and the season 2 finale.

Goes back to subjective. Up The Long Ladder and The Royale are two of my guilty pleasures. Not great Trek, but entertaining. Even, after avoiding it for years due to it's rep, Shades of Grey has some good parts to it. If you take the 'Treatment/clip show' part out of it, its actaully a good Riker ep. But again, that's just my opinion. Others might think I'm nuts. Who knows, they might be right. ;)
 
here are my top 5 for each season, in no particular order:
Season 1: Where No One Has Gone Before, The Battle, The Big Goodbye, Heart of Glory, The Arsenal of Freedom
Season 2: Where Silence Has Lease, Elementary Dear Data, A Matter of Honor, The Measure of a Man, Q Who
Season 3: The Hunted, Yesterday's Enterprise, The Offspring, Sins of the Father, The Best of Both Worlds
Season 4: The Best of Both Worlds Pt II, Reunion, Data's Day, The Wounded, The Drumhead
Season 5: Darmok, Unfication (I & II), Conundrum, Cause & Effect, The Inner Light
Season 6: Chain of Command (I & II), Ship in a Bottle, Tapestry, Frame of Mind, Second Chances
Season 7: Phantasms, Parallels, The Pegasus, Lower Decks, All Good Things,,,

Season 6 - Chain of Command, Tapestry, The Chase, Frame of Mind, Timescape
Season 7 - Dark Page, Attached, Parallels, Lower Decks, Preemptive Strike, All Good Things

Man, that's a lot of great episodes!
 
Season 5: "Klingons on Uranus"

Man, that scene where Worf is on the holodeck bench pressing then Cmdr. Troy walks in tits out.

They commence Klingon nga'chu. Aw, man-- great camera work!

Weren't we watching that episode in my Starship last night?
 
Just from memory I would probably say;

Yesterday's Enterprise
The Wounded
Cause And Effect

Although, every time I go look at a complete listing of the episodes I find so many more that are so awesome.
