In this tale of betrayal, we bid farewell to the redoubtable Ro Larren as she finds her loyalties torn between Starfleet and the Maquis.

Episode 180: Preemptive Strike

This bog-standard, tropey episode is like the greatest hits album from the band's back catalogue.

Episode 179: Emergence

This platonic ideal of a phoned-in episode has a ton of continuity to things you just don't care about.

Episode 178: Bloodlines

Alexander's final episode is seventy percent of a good story, ruined by time travel.

Episode 177: Firstborn

In Wesley's final episode, we take an uncomfortable tour through cultural exoticism leading to more trouble with the Cardassians.

Episode 176: Journey's End

Guest commentator Cynthia Taylor joins us for the first episode of TNG she ever saw, in which Crusher resorts to using CRISPR instead of chicken soup.

Episode 175: Genesis

This Troi episode is a murder mystery involving a gothic romance on a haunted ship that ends in Worf being turned on by murder. Includes guest commentator Ryan Veeder.

Episode 174: Eye of the Beholder

Where we take a beloved part of the Star Trek franchise, look at it with jaded eyes, and then tell you everything that's wrong with it.

Only request that Neil should do more play by play!!!   Awesome podcast!!!!

Luv it!!!

Great way to re-live old TNG episodes. If you love the camp of Star Trek, you’ll love this podcast!

Love it!

Nitpicking: The Next Generation

The first of a pair of episodes that establish that Geordi LaForge truly is a creeper. Includes guest commentator Cynthia Taylor.

Episode 54: Booby Trap

Picard decides that there are four lights, but we're far more interested in following the trials and tribulations Captain Jellico's thankless work in the ending to this two-parter.

Episode 140: Chain of Command, Part II

A small bit of continuity does little to save an episode in which the Romulans try to stupidly reimplement The Manchurian Candiate.

Episode 99: The Mind's Eye

An unexpected "worst of" TNG when the awful peanut-butter of The Lonely Among Us meets the horrible chocolate of Where Silence Has Lease.

Episode 66: Allegiance

A tedious and offensive episode that's even less clever than its (not-very-clever) name. Includes guest commentator Jill Neff.

Episode 72: Menage a Troi

The long-anticipated end to the Leah Brahms duology tells you all you need to know about Geordi La Forge.

Episode 91: Galaxy's Child

In this long-awaited bookend to 'The Icarus Factor,' we finally learn everything we need to know about William Riker.

Episode 168: The Pegasus

In an episode of much detail but little plot, we learn that while things generally work out on the Enterprise, events don't conspire quite as well in other universes...

Episode 167: Parallels

In an episode that Dan somehow managed to miss first-run, the Enterprise crew combat a deadly attack of sleep apnea.

Episode 92: Night Terrors

This mockery of 'Who Watches the Watchers' contains what may be our most hated TNG side-character.

Episode 169: Homeward

The show's first official time-travel episode manages to avoid most of the worst pitfalls by also being a character study of Jean-Luc Picard(s).

Episode 39: Time Squared

Even the series' FIFTH omnipotent being can't save this dumb-all-the-way-down episode.

Episode 73: Transfigurations

Not for the first time nor the last, Riker gets the Enterprise into trouble because of his boner.

Episode 62: A Matter of Perspective

In yet another "Dear god, never go on the holodeck" episode, the Enterprise computer is revealed to be a magical wish engine.

Episode 29: Elementary, Dear Data

One of the best episodes of TNG, full stop, and a wonderful example of what Star Trek is all about.

Episode 97: Half a Life

Join us on Beverly Crusher's -306th birthday as we explore possible THE weirdest relationship in Star Trek history. Recorded before a live studio audience at Giocanni's Room in Philadelphia, courtesy of Philly AIDs Thrift. Includes a Q and A afterwards.

Episode 170: Sub Rosa

As the Enterprise crew once again fails to recognize someone impersonating Data, we learn that, in the Federation, some animals are more equal than others.

Episode 32: The Schizoid Man

A standard Star Trek episode in which, while dealing with an ethical dilemma involving an abandonded Borg, the Enterprise crew entirely fails to come to any real answer.
