-Demosthenes- Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 What is your favorite TNG episode?? I like All Good Times, but I like the scary ones like Frame of Mind and Genisis. What about you?
-Demosthenes- Posted March 8, 2004 Author Posted March 8, 2004 Ah, the borg. Those one's are kinda scary too.
-Demosthenes- Posted March 8, 2004 Author Posted March 8, 2004 Yeah, I read that somewhere on this site. I remember that one, it it pretty cool, in fact it was awesome!
alt_f13 Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I liked the one about the DNA in the galaxy being linked. I'm finding it really hard to watch ST now though, as I notice so many things they say just don't make any sense. Thats mostly VGR though. Hmm, the letters VGR reminded me of V-Ger. The original series movies were awesome. I really liked the style of those pseudo-future-semi-seventies sets. Can't wait until I can recognize current trends in ST as being passe, twenty years from now. [edit] Sayonara³ said in post # : There's a reason why most races in Star Trek are humanoid. See TNG: "The Chase".

YT2095 Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I liked the one when Data made his own child, it certainly raised some interesting issues!
Dave Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Liked the one where they first met the Borg. Very good episode.
Pinch Paxton Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I'm a Voyager fan really, I even wrote a script for it, but my FAT on my Hard drive got messed up, and I lost it. I only had 5 pages left to write before sending it off. They paid £10.000 per script. Best TNG...The Best Of Both Worlds 1/2 Then 'Data's Day', and '1001100' whatever it is. Pincho.
atinymonkey Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I like the one where Ryker performs an act that undermines the captains authority. Or where Ryker forms and implements a plan that the Captain expressly forbade him to do, or contrives a direct order. Plus the one where Ryker grows a beard to show the crew he is more hirsute and therefore more manly than Picard is quite good.
-Demosthenes- Posted March 9, 2004 Author Posted March 9, 2004 Either that or he has something for... sick!
Sayonara Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Watch Riker closely in any episode. He's verging on insubordination at every turn.
-Demosthenes- Posted March 9, 2004 Author Posted March 9, 2004 The one where Picard, Crusher, and Warf go on a secret mission to some romulan base, and Picard gets captured. The replacement captain on the Enterprise has some problems with Riker. PS: Watch Riker closely in any episode. Okay....
Sayonara Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 *Worf *Cardassian "Chain of Command, Part I" The Captain was Edward Jellico, and the same actor played Senator Kinsey in SG1.
-Demosthenes- Posted March 9, 2004 Author Posted March 9, 2004 Yeah, I was freakin' out that he wouldn't send someone to help Picard. WHY WOULDN'T HE DO SOMETHING!!! THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Five. No, Sayonora, he always says that it's the first officer's duty to propose alternatives/disagree.

Sayonara Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 What was the point of posting that? Stop artificially bumping the thread - it's not like nobody will post in it if it's 10 down the page.
atinymonkey Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Cap'n Refsmmat said in post # :You're making fun of this, aren't you? Ryker ignores the chain of command, you see. He greatly annoys me, to the extent that I make a list of the insubordination and mutinous suggestions he makes each episode. Watch when they have a command meeting, Ryker invariably dismisses the assembled staff without Picards consent. Dismissing staff when a suggestion is put forward is the equivalent of making the command decision in place of the Captain. The suggestions are one thing, ignoring the ranking officer in a room is a court martial offence, even in the Federation. In "Chain of Command, Part I" he openly plans a mutiny, clearly showing that he is not comfortable with the new Captain actually forcing him to follow orders. He ignores a direct order 4 times in the first half hour. A great point is made that he was offered his own command but refused it; he is obviously angling for the Captain of the flagship of the Federation. Ryker is widely accepted as being a mutinous villain. -Demosthenes- said in post # :Either that or he has something for... sick! What in the name of sweet Jesus are saying, man?

I'm sorry, but you do get mad quite easily, and without find out all the facts.

A great point is made that he was offered his own command but refused it; he is obviously angling for the Captain of the flagship of the Federation. Ryker is widely accepted as being a mutinous villain. I thought it was obvious that he just liked Picard. I think you are taking it too seriously. I mean, they really don't mean it to be that serious. You're supposed to take what they say. (though I always think, "should they have done that?")
