I'ma revive this thread here.
Almost finished TNG. One season left. I very much enjoyed Data's cat beating up on Riker. There's a new alpha in town :mymelontd:
I'm still on season 3 but watching a couple each week. My favorites so far are The Offspring and Measure of a Man. Not surprisingly, both are Data-centric episodes that focus on his humanity. Fascinating stuff.

Measure of a Man is included into the Best of Star Trek The Next Generation DVD alongside The Best of Both Worlds and Yesterday's Enterprise so you're not alone there.
Picard and Riker makes pretty good lawyers.
I can't remember which episodes those are. I didn't really pay attention to the titles.
Measure of a Man is when that douche wanted to disassemble Data calling him property and they debated his rights as a sentient being.
Oh I hated that guy
I knew he loss the second he listed his qualifications for what made a person sentient.
WHAT IS HE???
A machine!!
IS HE ARE YOU SURE?!?
On Voyager, the Doctor uses medical data obtained by a Cardassian (Crell Moset) who conducted inhuman experiments on prisoners of war for his research. Doing so saves B'Ellana Torres but the Doctor questions his own morality. He realizes by utilizing the medical data, he is condoning the horrible methods by which that data was acquired and thereby lowering himself to that level. So to avoid ever doing so again, he deletes all of Moset's research from the ship's database.
...and... I don't know why I mention it.
Jack: How do you know?
Will: It's more of a feeling really.
Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?
Will: No.

Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
Huxley: NO!
Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
Huxley: You need to leave, John.
Spartan: But Huxley.
Huxley: Get out!
Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.
By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
Because the Doctor in Voyager is awesome.
I think that episode would have come off a lot better if they hadn't made Moset such a "mustache-twirling Snidely Whiplash" villain in the end. It would have been more of a dilemma if he weren't so obviously psychotic.Originally Posted by Mercen-X
And Robert Picardo carried that show, imo.
