TNG 7.25&26 #AllGoodThings Excellently written finale, just enough call backs to episodes & charaters to please fans, but not enough to make it tacky. Good aging makeup, Denise Crosby and a clever wrap up to the pilot Encounter at Farpoint. I cried a lot. I'm tagging a call back to the pilot too.

TNG‘s not my fav ST series (it's too uneven) but it established the ST universe like not other. Looking forward to Star Trek: Picard. #startreksummermay

Megabooks I‘m going to bite the bullet and rewatch this today. I haven‘t seen it in years. I don‘t want to cry. But I know it‘s not my favorite. That‘s DS9. Worst goes to ENT!! 5y
twohectobooks Which one is your favourite?! 5y
tournevis @twohectobooks TOS is my favourite, DS9 is the best written, no question. 5y

tournevis @Megabooks ENT was an unfortunate series. They were badly served by Paramount, the producers and the series bible. They painted themselves into a corner and that's largely why they had the finale they had. The acting was good, the production was shallow and tentative. 5y
twohectobooks TNG is my favourite from growing up with it, but I also say DS9 was best. 5y
tournevis @twohectobooks 20 years on, DS9 holds up exceptionnally well. 5y

Pickpick

I read Trek books for the strange details, so if your novelization contains the line "Lionfish were his only vice" then you get a pass. I am a simple creature.
