A fun way to revisit the first two seasons of Sherlock.

I loved this book! It was like revisiting nostalgia which was reaffirmed for being as good if not more awesome than I remembered it! I loved these guys growing up and would often end up watching their syndicated show after the late-night talk shows went off the air on Fridays. These guys genuinely loved movies and enjoyed sharing their love and criticism of film with the world. They despised one another but came to respect and love each other

A couple more thoughts on this Federation history:
1) fucking Malcolm Reed makes captain? And he expected to roll up and big dog the Organians?!
2) convergent evolution already exists on planet Earth, I don't think it's that radical to think it could exist across planets (the extent it exists with the humanoids does seem unlikely)

If you go into books like this expecting greatness, you'll end up disappointed. But if you just need a fun diversion, this one works. A bit predictable, but fast paced and good if you enjoyed the show.

Encounter at Farpoint | David Gerrold
post image
Pickpick

(1987) The first ST:TNG tie-in novel is a novelization of the pilot episode. It's been a long long time since I watched "Encounter at Farpoint," and this seemed to match my hazy memory pretty well, except that the tone of the ending was quite different. Still, even with the difference it felt more like an episode of the show than like a pastiche, so Gerrold gets a passing grade from me.

RamsFan1963 It always amazes me how big a fan I became of ST:NG considering how much I detested the first season. Except for Data, I didn't care for any of the characters. 4mo
swynn @RamsFan1963 I remember being very underimpressed by the first season also, and watched very few episodes. It wasn't until I think the fourth season that I got into it, when a group of friends in college started having watch parties. At first I wasn't sure whether the show was getting better or I just enjoyed the company. From here I can see it was a generous helping of both 4mo

James263 How are you doing 4mo
RamsFan1963 @swynn Looking back on it, ST:NG Season One did have some quality episodes. The Big Goodbye, Datalore (introducing Data's evil twin brother Lore), Heart of Glory and Conspiracy were all entertaining, but they were surrounded by utter crap like Code of Honor (the worse ST episode I've ever seen), Justice (cringy Wesley Crusher episode), and We'll Always Have Paris 4mo
swynn @RamsFan1963 After reading this, I started a re-watch of the first season episodes, and still think they're mostly weak, even knowing -- heck *especially* knowing some of the series' strengths to come. And if my goodness yes, Code of Honor made my jaw drop early and left it gaping. I hope I can forget it again but I'm not optimistic 4mo
