[Geekyfanboy]

Yes there are way to many great episodes of TNG.. that list could be my top 100 episodes and I could fill it with ease.

[Geekyfanboy]

Yeah you are talking to a room full of geeks here.. I'm sure we have all had our favorite TV show marathons.. I've done TNG ,Voy, DS9, V, Buffy, LOTR, Firefly just to name a few.

The Neutral Zone
Unnatural Selection
Best of Both Worlds pt. 1 & 2
Thine Own Self
Relics
The Measure of a Man
Devil's Due
Who Watches the Watchers?
Starship Mine
Clues

I put in The Neutral Zone because I found the temporal culture clash interesting.  Devil's Due has the same underlying theme as Who Watches the Watchers but I found it more entertaining.  Picard in Starship Mine was very interesting.  More ruthless than usual.

[wraith1701]

Man; so many to choose from...

As of this moment, my top 10 would be

The Inner Light

Yesterday's Enterprise

Best Of Both Worlds 1&2

Sins Of The Father  :klingon

Redemption 1&2  :klingon

Reunion  :klingon

Relics

Lower Decks

[psikeyhackr]

Damn, I have to change my list.

The Neutral Zone
Unnatural Selection
Best of Both Worlds pt. 1 & 2
Thine Own Self
Relics
The Measure of a Man
Devil's Due
Who Watches the Watchers?
Starship Mine
The Most Toys

Took out Clues and put in The Most Toys.  That reminds me of Symbiosis.  But what should I take out to put that in?  It is hard to make comparisons when you like different episodes for different reasons.

This is the is a curious thing about sci-fi.  In my opinion some people like episodes  just because they have a lot of excitement.  It doesn't matter that they don't really have anything to say about anything. What does Best of Both Worlds have to say.  If an enemy is coming to kill you you try to destroy him first.  Big deal.

But science fiction is very much about what technology does to culture and what people decide to do with it which affects the culture.  Consider that replicator technology.  What would that do to any economic system?  So I thought The Neutral Zone was very interesting even though I know a lot of people would find it boring.

Here we are 39 years after the moon landing and most people can't figure out planned obsolescence is going on in cars even though Galbraith talked about it in 1959.  What does that say about people's understanding of science and technology?  But aren't most economists technological morons?  I estimate Americans have lost FOUR TRILLION DOLLARS on depreciation of cars since 1995 but even in our supposed economics crisis the economists say nothing about it.   I haven't been to an auto show in more than 30 years.  I don't understand people that say they like sci-fi but have almost no practical understanding of science.

Watch the old TOS episode The Cloud Minders and see if it isn't about economics.  Spock was out of character and it was poorly done but what was it ABOUT?

Haven't you ever met any people like Kivas Fajo in The Most Toys?  They get their egos all wrapped up in their possessions and expect other people to be impressed.   Very weird.
