"bad" as in spoiling the story in the episodes. I prefer to go in knowing nothing.

2024-05-21 06:21:22 +0000 UTCI love your reaction and agree with most of your thoughts. I think the reason the IMDB score was relatively low is that many people want ST:TNG to be all action and fast pacing, which this really isn’t. This is a deep character exploration, which I think makes it very important for the series going forward.

2024-05-20 17:57:20 +0000 UTCGreat analysis of this episode. You've said it all imo and I agree about Gates and her ability to convey such a level of emotion that brings the audience to tears. Well done my dudes, see you next episode 🖖

2024-05-20 01:46:49 +0000 UTCRon Moore definitely came in and wrote great episodes, bringing more character-oriented stories. But Michael Piller really deserves the initial credit as producer who got a solid focused writing staff together and basically became show runner. Also, Brannon Braga came in as well, teaming with Moore to become the top writers. These 3 really got the show on track, and thats why season 3 was their break-out season. Not perfect, but a hell of a batting average!

2024-05-19 21:21:29 +0000 UTCThe energy aliens felt responsible for her death. The mines were left active because being made of energy they couldn’t be hurt by them so didn’t realize they were still dangerous. When she was killed the realized their mistake and tried to fix things they first made all the mines inert and Geordie makes note that they found a bunch of then inactive and in a pile. The next step was trying to make it up to her son. It wasn’t until the crew was able to demonstrate the boy already had a support network and was going to be fine that the alien left.

2024-05-19 19:33:32 +0000 UTCDisagree with your perceptions of the alien plot line. I thought it added a lot to the grief aspect precisely because it did not have evil intent. It wanted to comfort the boy’s grief. It had good intentions, but not being human, it didn’t know that grief is an integral part of our humanity. Once the crew explained that to the alien, it understood. BTW, great reaction to a great episode! One of my favourite reactions of yours to date.
