Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

February Five #12

February 12, 2015

In order to appease my son who asked about my favorite Star Trek Next Generation character I will go ahead and address that now. In fact how about a post of Five Next Gen things! Here goes:

1. Favorite Character – Data with Q as a very close second.
2. Favorite Episode – The Inner Light – This is the episode where a probe takes Picard into the lifetime of another man in the span of 20 of our minutes. It is such a bittersweet story but powerful in so many ways.
3. Least Favorite Character – Oh, God, do I have to pick just ONE? Beverly Crusher – I just couldn’t stand her. I much preferred Dr. Pulaski (who most of my family don’t like).
4. I loved Majel Barrett as Deanna Troi’s mother. A couple of shows really touched on cycles in a woman’s life and I really appreciate those. Good stuff – I need to watch those again.
5. I liked the Q episodes in Star Trek Voyager as well – that was also the last of the series I watched. I always felt that Next Gen and Voyager were more faithful to Roddenberry’s original vision.

Well, there it is…again. And yes, Matt, that is nod to Emperor Joseph in Amadeus.
