In one episode they solved all their problems by literally rebooting the Enterprise.
Wesley: We were fighting on opposite sides, but it was the same war. Fred: but you hated her…didn't you? Wesley: It's not always about holding hands.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The thing about ST:TNG that bugged me most was that the Klingon High Council apparently couldn't do anything without Picard coming over to help.

The important thing is that Data scored with Tasha Yar.
Single best thing that ever happened on the show.

I remember that one. I swear the writers thought of the Enterprise D as just a really big desktop computer that flies through space.

Didn't they make him an honorary Klingon or something?

I don't know. Tasha's greatest moment was probably Yesterday's Enterprise. t /Trek Geek

btw, speaking of Trek geekiness:
Where did you watch the first episode of TNG? Did you have a geek gathering of friends?

Where did you watch the first episode of TNG?
At a housing co-op in Madison. I discovered it was on by accident and joined them in the TV room. I didn't watch the first few years (for the most part) as I was skeptical about the new series at first.

TV room in the college dorm. I didn't know any other girls who were into Trek (and I really wasn't, overly, but knew enough about TOS via the dozen or so eps I had seen and the movies that I had seen multiple times to be intrigued by the idea of TNG), so it was just me a few geek guys in the rather small room in the basement. A few people would stroll by on their way to doing laundry and watch for a few minutes, but it wasn't appointment TV.

My most interesting TNG viewing experience was the season finale of Season 4, when they had the big reveal of Denise Crosby in Romulan garb. I was sitting there with my mouth open when the phone rang and it was my sister, watching in her apartment in the city, screaming into the phone, "Was that who I think that was?!?"

I didn't have a lot of friends in the area at the time, so I wound up watching the premiere alone at my mom's house. For three or four years it was the one and only hour of TV I watched.
