You don't realise how bad TNG's first season is until you try rewatching it.
>>
>>217487695
It's not all bad. There are some great episodes in season 1.

All I know is that I have jerked it hundreds of times to Tasha Yars tits.

Nutrek is trash.

That's not the topic of this thread.

The second season isn't much better.
>>
>>217488047
Yes it fucking is. Whenever some awful Nu Trek comes out there's always this "totally organic" Trek Was Heckin' Always Badirino threads.

Data is actually way more interesting - albeit more annoying - in season 1
They dumb him down sometime in s2-3 to a level where he's sort of a blank slate trying human things one at a time instead of being a strange facsimile that's also actively curious and investigative. They even call back to this characterization in All Good Things
I get that turning him down from 11 is one of the things that makes the whole tv show work better but the alchemy did lead to this element disappearing for better or worse
>>
>>217487985
does anyone actually do this or are you just saying it? I can't cum from watching the women on TV at all
>>
>>217487695
I love season 1. In fact it might be my favorite season of the show. I find the cheap sets and effects incredibly charming.
>>
>>217488543
The actress did a lot of soft foxy stuff before and after star trek. The woman had a miraculous set of tits, great tummy and thighs so soft and bitable.
>>
>>217488515
His whole ME WANT TO BE HUMAN thing is kind of what sold him to certain people. But him being fully aware he is a machine and simply LARPing as a human as an interesting hobby and would frequently do things that breaks the illusion that it is a human being is far more interesting.

third episode was space niggas which was not promising. But there were good campy episodes like the one where wesley trips over a plant on some planet and they want to execute him. They introduce the holodeck (something to malfunction besides the transporter) , Q and the Ferengi in the 1st season. I like the last episode of the 1st season - The Neutral Zone about the frozen people from the 20th century which seemed very Star Trek.

Where No One Has Gone Before
The Battle
The Big Goodbye
11001001
Heart of Glory
The Arsenal of Freedom
Skin of Evil
Conspiracy

Season 1 being bad is a bad meme at this point. When people say that, they mean The Naked Now, Code of Honor, and the portrayal of the Ferengi. Even the characterizations can be explained as the crew still being unfamiliar to each other and not yet our if their shells, and some of them being young. It gets better later, but S1 is their most raw scifi compared with the others.
>>
>>217489265
Skin of Evil is dogshit

I like the big goodbye and 11001001 but all the rest suck shit

I like the first episode.

She did a Playboy spread shortly after leaving the show. If you're really into sort of dyke, sort of tomboy kind of women, you'd probably like it. Breasts are small but she otherwise has a nice hourglass figure.
>>
>>217489621
on the contrary, Tasha getting killed instantly instead of some long drawn-out dramatic way circles back around to being kino
Also Picard taunting Armus was great

Why was Shades of Gray review bombed? Was it too woke?
>>
>>217490881
How can anyone legitimately ask why Shades of Gray is shit?
>>
>>217490881
>>217490908
Behind the scenes, the episode was made during the 1988 Writers Guild strike, so the production team could not hire writers to create a real script. To meet the season deadline and budget, Star Trek: The Next Generation used a clip show format built around existing footage.
>>
>>217490881
On IMDb, it’s review-bombed as if it were a standard episode, which is unfair given the circumstances. It’s not a bad episode per se-it’s simply not a real episode, but a production stopgap.
>>
Thus, the second season really has only one true stinker. That’s the infamous “The Child.”
>>
>>217491051
That's way off
The 1988 strike only affected the tail end of Season 1 and the start of Season 2 (which is why the Season 2 premiere was delayed until November instead of the usual September date).
Shades of Gray was only made because Q Who and several other episodes went severely over budget.
>>
>>217490844
the reason these ratings seem more realistic in their range is because imdb wasn't a metric-based advertizing site in the early days.
>>
>>217490876
>in light mode
I keep forgetting this place is full of normgroids now.
>>
I absolutely hate reading articles that say "Early TNG had to use old TOS scripts!" that's completely false. Only TWICE did they recycle scripts that weren't even from TOS but from the abandoned "Phase II" series. "The Child" in season 2, and "Devil's Due" in season 4. Twice. That's it.
>>
>>217490908
Because that anon believes the new show is being review bombed because the same critics that highly praised the new show told us it was.
>>
>>217487695
I wish Denise stayed and gave us much more scantily clad years of proud service in starfleet.

>>217489621
Skin of Evil is great
>I learned that there is often no purpose in death, no meaning and no gallant ending. For most people, it just happens. One minute we are here and the next minute, we're not
Perfect

>>217490881
It was a clip show
>>
>>217490844
Why is the average for the whole show 8.7 when the average rating of all the episodes is clearly well below that?
>>
>>217492240
it vibes at that level

>Heart of Glory

I like Season 1. I’ll always start from the beginning.

Oh God wtf was that hairstyle, why do women do this to themselves

skin of evil isn't a good episode, it's just a means to an end

What's wrong with The Arsenal of Freedom?
>plenty of action
>every cast member gets something to do
>sleazy holographic used car salesman
>Geordi takes command

Don't deny it. You know that's exactly what happens.

Yes it's not great. Thank god their small tweaks into s2 and 3 made a huge difference though.

>>217487695
It's great, you're just a tryhard who worships drunken Minnesotans.

its a clip show isnt it?
>>
>>217490844
Imagine believing there are no bad episodes in Seasons 4 and 5
>>
>>217487695
It wasn't as polished as later seasons, but it was fine for a 1987 production. It's a masterpiece compared to nutrek.
>>
>>217492240
Because they're different ratings. Most people just leave a rating for the show itself.
To rate an individual episode you have to do that separately.
The overall ratings doesn't take into account the ratings of individual episodes.
>>
>>217492497
That's typical for episodic shows that have 400 different writers.
>>
>>217492398
Do you understand how the internet works? They would not need to be in the same room.
You seem like a simpleton. You should post less and lurk more.

Thank you for the list of great episodes in TNG season 1.
>>
>>217487695
Blatant lie. Best seasons are the early ones in any real Trek.

>>217487695
Love Season 1:

>Tasha Yar
>Troi with skirt

>>217492639
>drunken Minnesotans.
But you repeat yourself.

The only bad TNG episodes are the ones that reuse old footage

Was DS9 too woke?

>>217495154
Maybe they were both? I was very young at the time but I do remember seeing her doing space theme stuff in the photo spread. A quick image search shows her looking younger than on TNG in the nudes.
>>
>>217491063
It's also difficult to end a season with a clip show. Back when it was airing, I didn't mind a clip show in the middle to late season as a way of bringing back some events from episodes I hadn't seen in a while. VCRs existed but unless you were religious about recording the episodes, most people watched an episode once and that was it until the show entered second run syndication.
