	TNG - Season 1
		I know it's only the second episode but the cast seem to be stumbling around in the dark trying to find thier characters.
		Q's planet looks like it was put together in a matter of minutes out of cardboard and duct tape, but thats not the point..
		I really enjoyed this episode even if the special effects crew were on vacation at the time they shot it.

		In this pilot episode, the Conn and Ops stations on the bridged are reversed.
		This episode was supposed to be a homage to the original series episode "The Naked Time" (also written by John Black), but most people viewed it as a rip-off of the original series.
		Although not actually seen in this episode, the Borg (Season 2, Episode 42 "Q Who") are later said to have caused the destruction of the Federation and Romulan outposts.

	Q Who (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Q, too, turns out to be dangerous beyond anything the childish power games of Hide and Q might have suggested.
		In later episodes Q will turn out to have benevolent traits, but at this time his motivation is nothing more benevolent than the petty vindictiveness of wounded pride.
		The moment the captain’s decision turns out not to be the one Q has been expecting the choice ceases to be a choice and becomes a transgression that must be punished.

	IGN: Star Trek: Fan Collective - Q Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		True Q (TNG 6.6) gives a little more insight in to the operation of the Q as a young intern, played by Oliva d'Abo, attracts Q's attention for she may be a Q, too.
		Q's only DS9 appearance, Q-Less (DS9 1.6), is a particularly throwaway episode that was intended to help launch the new series as Vash returns from the travels we saw her depart upon in QPid.
		She refuses and another Q (Suzie Plakson) is pretty peeved that Q would abandon her after a four billion-year relationship for a mere human.

		TNG came at a time when sci-fi television was pretty much non-existent and brought to the small screen a show with great characters, interesting and well-written plots and an overall sense of wonder.
		multi episode arcs) were almost never employed so character growth was very limited - which is why it wasn't until season three the show hit its stride.
		That nature however made it easy to come into an episode afresh without having to have much back story to understand what was happening.

		It is the captain's suggestion that Q allow them to prove the worthiness of their species by completing their mission at Farpoint Station.
		Q later returned in several other episodes, including "All Good Things..."(TNG), which was the last television episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
		This episode established the destruction of several distant outposts which was later found to be the work of the Borg in "Q Who?"(TNG).

		In this episode he plays a trick on the crew in his attempt to escape.
		Q gives Picard the opportunity to relive this event, but Picard is less than pleased with the result — it seems removing one thread in one’s history (whether or not one is proud of the particular thread) has profound affects on one’s life.
		Q is causing Captain Picard to shift through time in the final leg of the trial of humanity.

	Ex Astris Scientia - TNG Season 2
		This TNG episode is not responsible for the blatant inconsistency that genetic enhancement is outlawed according to DS9: "Dr. Bashir, I Presume?".
		But it is not acceptable either that further into this TNG season, Pulaski who is fascinated by the superchildren will be upset that she has been cloned and will even kill her clone.
		The trashy scenery is not to the episode's disadvantage.

	Tim Lynch Review of True Q (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Q does not answer, but suggests that it might have been, and insists that Amanda really has no choice in the matter.
		This Q is the sort of person who, when asked about the warp-core breach, "and what would have happened if she hadn't been able to contain the explosion?", simply answers "then I would have known she wasn't a Q!" and give no sign of recognizing that there even is another level to the question.
		Q reporting to his superiors was, well, done very fluidly; I got a real sense of things always moving along.

	TechnoFILE Reviews "Star Trek The Next Generation" on DVD
		Disc 4: In “Deja Q,” the crew is surprised by the appearance of their mischievous nemesis, Q, while “A Matter Of Perspective” finds Riker suspected of murdering a respected scientist who had accused the Enterprise officer of seducing his wife.
		The episodes are presented in their original 4x3 broadcast aspect ratio, which means owners of 16x9 TV’s will have to stretch and/or zoom the picture to fill the screen, but this is better than artificially cropping the picture to make a faux widescreen.
		For example, the episode “Preemptive Strike” features not only the Cardassians (though, to be fair, that particular alien race had appeared in TNG episodes before) who were the main bad guys in DS9, but the Maquis would supply one of Voyager’s main cast members.

	The DVD Pub reviews Star Trek: Q Fan Collective
		TNG started off rough with questionable special effects and some overly “preachy” writing, but it developed into one of the best science fictions programs on television.
		In one of my favorite episodes Deja Q, he is turned into a mortal by the head Q dudes and he develops a very interesting relationship with Data; terrific performances from both.
		This Q Fan Collective is another attempt to get fans to dig deep into their pockets for more Star Trek than they might need.

	Hide & Q
		"Q" invites Riker to join the Continuum, that is, to become a "Q" himself, and he temporarily grants Riker the power to completely change his friends' lives--to give Geordi La Forge sight, to give Worf a Klingon mate, to make Data into a human being and to make Wesley Crusher into an adult.
		"Q"'s ploy to seduce a human being by giving him god-like powers is prefaced by a good deal of surrealistic foreplay, involving "Q" wafting Enterprise officers to bizarre locations, where, for instance, ugly, pig-like Napoleonic soldiers attack and kill Worf and Wesley.
		"Q" is what the ancient Greeks called a "deus ex machina"--the machine that was used to lower the gods into human situations, on stage, to arbitrarily resolve plot difficulties.

		Because the show's budget was a million per episode, all the major networks turned down the pilot, as they believed that it was much too costly for a science fiction television show.
		With it’s likable cast of characters and it’s interesting archive of stories, ST-TNG remains one of the most popular television series of all time and continues to be celebrated to this day in the form of conventions, feature films, and this DVD boxed set.
		Dialogue is really clear and the sounds of the doors opening and closing is especially well served by these new mixes.

	Star Trek TNG Next Generation Season 1 DVD Reviews LD Laserdisc Picard comparison (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		The issue of the merely mediocre visual quality of Star Trek: The Next Generation (es- pecially the first 2 sea- sons) is nothing new, nor is the demand by fans to improve on it.
		The sound is on both DVD sets equal with better direction then the PCM stereo LD, but that mix has mo- re ambiance intact than the DVD's 5.1.
		But, they lack the extras, and the series is here in episodical order, which leads to disaster as Tasha Yar is killed in one episode only to be alive and kicking in the next.
