Generations, and … there wasn’t a fourth movie was there? Tell me that was just a bad dream…). And since Greg mentioned those TOS-based fan series, the Phase II/New Voyages adaptation of that same script – itself adapted from the original Phase II script from the late ’70s – was just done so much better.Īs for the TNG movies, I agree with Greg about Insurrection – I really don’t get all of the hate for it I’ve seen online (my own rankings: 1. Marvel in Avengers #200 (Greg and Mike will know exactly what I’m talking about). Personally, I’d say a low point is that episode at the beginning of season 2, “The Child.” That immaculate conception thing with Troi just seemed really creepy and wrong to me, reminding me a little of that whole distasteful story-line involving Ms. Casey, by the way, makes a good case for Riker – I’d never thought of him as an everyman analog, but it actually makes sense.

And I swear before he mentioned it, I was thinking of that episode, “The Drumhead,” as one of the finer showcase of Picard’s awesomeness (that, and “There are *four* lights!!!”).

Oh, yeah, it’s an extra-special treat when RvtM deals with Trek.Īnd right off the bat, I have to say that I completely and utterly share Mike’s high point: Patrick Stewart as Picard all the way.
