Why I love ST:TNG |
|
Number: first the PCode, then a combination of season:episode, according to air date.
Number / Name | Why I liked it |
Season 1 Season 2 Season 3 Season 4 Season 5 Season 6 Season 7 | |
721 / 1:1
Encounter at Farpoint |
Ideals: honesty, peace, not giving up, intelligence, creativity, technology,
common sense, speaking up and then obeying orders / asking for advice and then issuing
orders, not obeying idiots, fairness, no fear of own death, protecting the lives of
others, efficiency, courage, humanity, r & r, research, understanding, tolerance, not
exactly keeping to the law, ex-lovers can be colleagues, exploration.
A dark part of their past (our future). Do descendants answer to the ancestors crimes? A conflict between the captain and the ambition of his first officer? Bones! |
103 / 1:2
The naked now |
Data and Tasha!
Beverley and Jean-Luc. |
104 / 1:3
Code of honor |
The prime directive.
Unfairness? Honor is wasteful? |
107 / 1:4
The last outpost |
The right to meet death awake.
A guardian of a dead empire. Female clothing viewed as an invitation to unclothe the female - a distraction. |
106 / 1:5
Where no one has gone before |
Ideas made real.
Wesley an extraordinary person. Space, time and thought are not the separate things they appear to be. |
108 / 1:6
Lonely among us |
Humans are vegetarians.
Learning by doing, or by going to school? Data as Sherlock Holmes! Mutiny. Matrix-like music. |
109 / 1:7
Justice |
Worf: "Nice planet." :-)
Interesting society: no one does anything uncomfortable to them, all life is about pleasure, physical fitness, music, nature, no machines - except: no crime, because the punishment for even the smallest crime is death, swift, painless. Is that okay? (No.) And if not: does that invalidate the possibility of the rest of this Eden? "I'm with Star Fleet, we don't lie." Hm... A god, that is really a vessel and crew. Ignorance of the law is no defense. A just law is not absolute, there must be exceptions. Prime directive broken? |
110 / 1:8
The battle |
Nice ghost crew effect.
Revenge is unprofitable. |
111 / 1:9
Hide and Q |
That Matrix music again.
Change/growth is at the heart of human nature. Our crew / Napoleon wars. A contest in Shakespeare. Are Q-like powers good for humans? We are not ready for it yet. Power corrupts... |
105 / 1:10
Haven |
That Matrix-twinge again...
Arranged weddings. Mother/daughter relationships. Complete honesty is good. Seeing a bit of the future? Or lond distance telepathy? All beings connected all the time? Acceptance. Virus warfare is foolish. Relationship between in-laws. Humor. A third wheel. The music. I give up: this is perfect. Except maybe the obnoxious Lwaxana? |
113 / 1:11
The big goodbye |
Our crew / 1941, San Francisco.
Beverley / Jean-Luc. Fantasy becoming dangerously real. Reality turning out to be a fantasy. Killing for a purpose. The music. |
114 / 1:12
Datalore |
Time enough, to just look.
Handling embarrassment. Data, with a tick, a superiority complex, emotion - and evilness. An actor playing 2 close parts. |
115 / 1:13
Angel one |
A matriarchy, with strong females.
La Forge (not used to lead) in command. Life or principles? Martyrs. A revolution, that doesn't happen overnight. Attempt at breaking P.D. |
116 / 1:14
11001001 |
Nice shot of the ship from above.
Perfect twins, moving in harmony. Menuet. Guilt in an android! Loving, and losing. Man should not love machine. Very good episode. |
112 / 1:15
Too short a season |
An old man growing younger. Choosing not to grow old with his wife, not to even ask his wife.
But - rejuvenation doesn't work. Doing the past over doesn't work. Revenge doesn't either.
Why is youth so important? War is a choice. |
118 / 1:16
When the bough breaks |
Physical hurt - and the other kind...
Desperate situations. Unlimited development of talent - or living with your family? Passive resistance. Hunger strike. Too much science is not good. |

Home soil |
Inorganic life, beautiful.
The definition of life. "Ugly bags of mostly water." ;-) Unintended destruction. |
119 / 1:18
Coming of age |
Mystery - what is the point of that investigation?
Covert tests. The correct answer to disrespect. A glimmer of something - a conspiracy. Running away solves nothing. |
120 / 1:19
Heart of glory |
Looking through somebody else's eyes.
How Klingon is Worf? What is Klingon nature and culture anyway? How Star Fleet is Worf? Good one! |
121 / 1:20
The arsenal of freedom |
Peace through weapons?
Leadership. A superior weapon killing its creators. |
123 / 1:21
Symbiosis |
Withdrawal, drugs, dealing in drugs, deceit...
Negotiating with a kidnapper. Using (abusing?) P.D.? |
122 / 1:22
Skin of evil |
A death in the crew. A burial. Touching.
Therapy. A race "shedding" their evil side. Or? What is evil anyway? Negotiating with a kidnapper. Love of life. In a good life, death is acceptable. |
124 / 1:23
We'll always have Paris |
Time manipulation.
Old love, of Jean-Luc. Closure. Great actor! |

135 / 2:9
The measure of a man | An
old love. We must protect the unique. A farewell party for a crewmember. When the law asks people to argue against their own opinion. Slavery. Is the android property, or a person? Sentience: intelligence, consciousness, self-awareness. The right to choose. A soul. Excellent! |

A good one turning evil.
In the absence of leadership, anybody can step in as the next leader. |
254 / 7:2
Liaisons |
Researching "certain concepts": love, pleasure and antagonism. Secretly, and to the extreme.
Shapechangers. |
255 / 7:3
Interface |
Seeing and moving through a mashine.
Mother missing - stubbornly presumed alive. Saying goodbye to the dead. |
256 / 7:4
Gambit, part I |
The captain dies. And the no. 1 goes missing. The android in command.
Our crew as mercenaries. |
257 / 7:5
Gambit, part II |
A new no. 1.
Combining the chain of command with friendship. Isolationatism. To kill with a thought. The ultimate defense? Oh, I like this! And a humorous end too. Quite good. |
258 / 7:6
Phantasms | A dream. A nightmate. |
259 / 7:7
Dark page |
Telepathy.
A new, difficult language. An old neurosis re-surfacing. Grief. I am touched. Visiting the subconscious. A long dead father. And a sister! Forgiveness. |
260 / 7:8
Attached |
Unity at home before trying unity in a larger setting.
Telepathy. (Again?) Suddenly! Paranoia. (Excuse me, "security".) Hint at a love for years - and then finally show it. Choose love? |
261 / 7:9
Force of nature |
Cats.
Speed limits! Because of pollution. Forced to destroy (and selfdestruct), in order to save. |
262 / 7:10
Inheritance |
The android has a mother. (In more than one sense.) Telling embarrassing baby stories!
Having children, who might not survive. Ignorance is bliss? |
263 / 7:11
Parallels |
2 of the crew becoming stepbrother and sister. Or even married!
Alternate universes, gradually changing. Disorientation. The crew in general changing status. Humor. "285,000 hails" indeed. Perfect. |
264 / 7:12
The Pegasus |
Running into a former captain. Having to lie to the present captain.
Should orders just be obeyed? We change as we get older. Passing through solid matter - like a ghost. Taking responsibility. Actually quite good! |
265 / 7:13
Homeward |
A foster brother. A sister in law! And a niece or nephew!
The P.D. |
266 / 7:14
Sub rosa |
A (dead) grandmother. And her young lover - inherited!
Scots. Women discussing men. A ghost. |
267 / 7:15
Lower decks |
For once, seeing the decisions from the outside, not knowing everything.
Seeking promotion. The 2 parallel poker games. If unfair, then protest. Secrets. From friends. Losing a crewmember. Actually rather good. |
268 / 7:16
Thine own self |
Amnesia. The android forgets his nature. And dies!
Education. Evaluation. Science. The empirical method. New & strange = dangerous. It is exciting to command. |
269 / 7:17
Masks | The android with multiple personalities: a whole mythology. |
270 / 7:18
Eye of the beholder |
A jumper - a suicide.
Reliving somebody else's life - and death. An affair between crewmembers. |
271 / 7:19
Genesis |
The crew as animals.
The children are the future! |
272 / 7:20
Journey's end |
Forcibly moving groups of people.
Prophecy. Vision. Identity crisis. The right to make our own choices. |
273 / 7:21
Firstborn |
Children, and expectations of parents.
Tradition, heritage. Time travel. Regrets. Is it weak to opt for peace? |
274 / 7:22
Bloodlines | A surprise son! Making a first connection. |
275 / 7:23
Emergence |
Surreal. A metaphor. Symbols.
The ship gains intelligence. And procreates. |
276 / 7:24
Preemptive strike |
Continuing to fight, after the peace treaty.
Infiltration. Spying. Cross, and double cross. A new father. |
747 / 7:25
All good things... |
Time travel.
What happens to the crew in the future - except, now they know. Developing romances. A 3D space battle - how unusual. |
