Thank you for sharing this post! I am in complete agreement. My heart sank when the DC prequel series was canceled.

I agree. I think it was an intelligent choice that makes the previous 2 episodes even more impactful. The casting choices of his family were brilliant, and Worf’s parents too! So good! There are so many little gems of dialogue too. I would’ve included it in my list had you not included it in yours.

Data's Day was a wonderful episode. Fantastic choice.

"On its birthday, share one image from your favorite TNG episode." ONE??!! Impossible. Skipping universal favorites like Yesterday's Enterprise & Inner Light, here are some of my personal favorites. ("Face of the Enemy," "The Measure of a Man," "Unnatural Selection," and "Who Watches the Watchers")

Deanna Troi surgically altered to appear as a Romulan, wearing a Romulan uniform.

Cmdr. Riker in a courtroom holding up the left arm of Lt. Cmdr. Data as part of testimony.

Doctor Pulaski appearing from quarantine on the Enterprise D view screen. She show visible signs of premature aging.

Nuria, the leader of a small bronze age village on Mintaka III is standing in the senior staff conference room of the Enterprise D with Captain Picard. She is looking at her home world from the vantage of space for the first time in wonder.

I like your choices, especially the Vidians.

What are your top 4 Star Trek antagonists?

I’m nerding out because I had the chance to see Venus and the star Regulus paired with the crescent moon on my early morning walk. I almost skipped my walk. I’m so glad I went! #astronomy

Fingers crossed they slip in examples of Starfleet values and opportunities to expose kids to basic STEM concepts amongst all the silliness.

Arwyn @arwynbabelfish.bsky.social · Sep 7

Very cool!

Agreed. It’s been such a comfort… especially this year. When the season is up, I’m starting a complete Trek rewatch. Any little thing to keep that light of hope going.
