Pulaski was not as ill-conceived as Neelix(or proto-Jar Jar as I call him)

Another painfully dated aspect of TNG’s first couple of seasons was the synthesized background music, which seemed to punctuate every other line of dialog. Thankfully, the synthesized music was eventually phased out in favor of more symphonic scores as the series progressed.

Characterizing improved a lot after season 2 as well, as the actors seemed more comfortable with their characters and delivered more nuanced performances. Many of the earlier perforances were embarrassingly overwraught and melodramatic.

And, of course, good riddance to one of the most ill-conceived characters in Star Trek history… Dr. Pulaski!

My question on this is… is the image quality better than the individual box sets? That to me is the clincher. I might be willing to invest in this, but not if the image quality is as crappy as the original releases.

37: Let’s not start trying to disqualify people from “true” fanhood. If you like all 10 feature films and every single episode of the 5 TV series, good for you! You’ve sure got a lot of material to enjoy.

Personally, I see where trektacular is coming from. When I think of late TNG, I think of episodes like “Masks,” which for me had the same vibe as Voyager. Voyager never gelled with me. As a result, I quickly got to the point that I would only occasionally tune in so I could see cool stuff which Rick Sternbach and the rest of the art department were making for it. As far as Enterprise goes, I was so turned off by the first few episodes that I never deliberately tuned in again. I recall flipping channels past it once as they were rehashing the Klingon court story from STVI and shaking my head.

Does it have those great “On the next exciting episode of Star Trek (pause) The Next Generation!” promos?

TNG only started to suck when, like Voyager and Enterprise after it, Brannon Braga took over.

Again, Chinny, where are you coming from? I don’t know whether to agree with you, argue with you in a thread derailing tirade, or ask you to please snuff the blunt before typing. I can function in a tiny bit of Spanish but prefer American-style english as that’s right in my wheel-house.

Ooh, I’ve got it! Have you suffered some blunt head trauma? AP, could you send over a medic to Dolphy’s house and have a look-see?
