Dude, I don't know. Maybe it just feels like ten? LOL

I think my main issue with TNG is that there's no overarching story that encompasses the whole series, really. I don't think having Q in the first and last episodes counts. *g* I also don't think there's a whole lot of character development. Data and Picard get a lot of character development, and everybody else is pretty much exactly the same character he or she started as with minor changes. IDK

I passionately love many TNG episodes, I just don't think it holds up as well as some of the other franchises.

Icon is shareable! the maker is in the keywords. :)

Yeah, everything you say is true, it's just not an issue for me.

Even Picard doesn't have THAT much character growth - he has character moments, and moments where he learns things, and character growth within an episode, but I'd be hard pressed to find a significant way in which he acts differently at the start of the series than he does at the end because of something he experienced. I think Data is the only one with legit character growth, and maybe to a minor extent Laforge by proxy.

But that doesn't bother me - to be honest, I like that a lot. I like that it provides a stable structure for telling different stories from week to week, that you have this basic reliable framework - the same characters, the same tone, the same basic situation compelling adventures - and that you can use that to create an anthology series, where they do all these different things and have these adventures.

It's definitely different than DS9 or Voyager or ENT where you have a serial storyline. But I honestly prefer the non-serial style, and it's something that's really fallen out of style. Maybe it doesn't hold up because it's more old-fashioned, but I like that about the show. You wouldn't re-watch it in the same way you'd rewatch DS9, certainly. But I don't think that means it's a lesser series because it's telling different stories week by week, as long as those stories are interesting, and they usually are to me, after the first season at least. And some of the second season. And some of the 7th season.

TNG love y'all

I'd rather catch an odd episode of TNG if I'm watching TV randomly than the other series because there's no context I have to really worry about.

Hey, you love what you love. No apologies needed. I still get goosebumps every time I hear the opening theme music. LOL
