Did this one creep you out? Trek TNG Playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLQHhQlj8i5dqskzLNqeSNyMGa1rBWe3h1.html Original Series: ua-cam.com/play/PLQHhQlj8i5drsrCtQd-FDuZZ99vKlPTyZ.html
When I first saw this it definitely creeped out teenage me. I thought about all the civilians & kids. Imagine growing up on Enterprise D. You'd have a lot of crazy things almost kill you a lot!
Mrs Jen....you keep saying Space madness n I HAAAVVEEE to ask if you're referring to Ren&Stimpy "space madness"😅cuz if you Are...that is heeeeelarious.
Yeah, it is definitely up there. The clicking in the holodeck, if you recall the scene I'm talking about in a later episode, is one of the most terrifying scenes for me.
This might be one of the episodes where someone on TOR's rewatches of episodes commented: "You know, without Data, the entire crew would be dead. A lot."
It's actually a good supporting argument for when that guy wanted to take Data apart so that every starship could have a Data on board. Every spaceship SHOULD have an android of some sort to help run the ship. (Or at least a good one, like Data)
Very unsettling episode, and it sticks with you. I first saw this episode when I was a little kid, and I tell ya, I have never forgotten how important REM sleep is. 😂
As a person with a sleep disorder, I know firsthand how debilitating sleep deprivation can be. Watching these characters being forgetful, irritable, depressed, unfocused, looked really familiar to me lol.
seriously? Violations one the one that truly traumatised me. Beverley and Jean-Luc seemingly floating down the corridor to see Jack Crusher's body, suddenly Jack is Jev, he opens his eyes, Beverley screams and turns to Jean-Luc, who is also now Jev... NOPE
I think it's funny how everybody notices how Data and Deanna aren't affected, but no one realizes Guinan wasn't affected either. Anyway, loved the review, love you, take care and stay safe ❤️
I actually kind of like that they never got into the details of her species. We know she’s old, smart, hates the Borg, and Q isn’t a fan, that’s about it. She apparently has a great deal of mental toughness since she didn’t crack up in this episode, but it’s not treated like a “power”.
@@kingleech16 It get that. It is interesting to have a character that's only 'sketched in', upon which we can project our own concepts of long life, ancient wisdom, inscrutable peace and comfortable friendship. Having the show fill in more canonical details about her would have felt... 'limiting', somehow.
Yeah, pretty creepy, helped by some unsettling music. Guinan laying down the law was kind of a nod to a Western trope where the saloon owner/barperson would whip out a shotgun to stop a barfight (which were obviously hella expensive for the saloon owner cuz everything gets broken :).
This is one of my all-time favorite Trek episodes purely for the creep factor. The music, especially, really works well with the mysterious atmosphere.
I mean, I get that it's creepy, but the episode that TRAUMATISED me, aged 13, was in the next season, and I don't know why people have seemed to have forgotten it
I never remembered this as a bad episode, but I guess in the season 4 shuffle, I had forgotten how *good* this one was. It's a rather perfect Star Trek episode as there was no villain, but a lot of tension, and the crisis is resolved by communication and cooperation.
I don't know how the 80's audience thought about it, but nowadays - with all the research into neurological, mental, and other kinds of illnesses - people are far more likely to know that this episode's progression is quite grounded, and very, very real (even if the situation that created it is fantastical). And that just makes it even scarier, even if you've not had first-hand experience with it in some form, which heightens the impact of the story.
Interesting Trek series crossover event as the young Asian Ensign Lind that Riker had take control of the Conn. Was actually one of the kids in the TOS episode "And the Children Shall Lead."
How fortunate is the Enterprise to have such a dream team of talented and unique individuals? They have the ONLY android in Starfleet, they have the only Klingon, they have an empath / telepath... they never got around to really using Geordi's unique vision, plus all of the other brilliant engineers, medical staffers, command personnel. They have it all!
I was wondering why the Brattain had such a small crew (about 34 if my memory is correct). I bet the original script had it as a tiny Oberth class science vessel.
I guess it depends on what their mission was... There was that supply ship, Lantree, that had a crew of 26 and was the same class. I suppose you don't need a lot of people to be "Space Amazon" delivery
oh an eerie episode indeed 😳 , i do enjoy Horror so i recall this episode very vividly and i like it when the cast acts outside of their characters , so to see them all act so worn and vulnerable was interesting . Happy Sunday Jen and the TNG Chat crew . 😃 🖖
I liked Data and Troi looking through the inventory - figuring out the other ship was asking FOR something vs. what they have - then instead of a long sentence simply going with "NOW". Kind of a Halloween type episode
Good thing the Enterprise is a deep space exploration vessel. With all the scienceing they do, they had a wide assortment of elements on board. Granted hydrogen is one of the most basic, but it's good to have a wide range of options.
Troi (and Data) to the rescue! I was waiting for Jen to react to this episode. Forcing her to show love to Troi and give her flowers 😂 We know Jen has been hard on her in the past 😉😂
I love horror, so I enjoyed this episode as a kid. X) You'd think this was a Halloween episode, but no, it aired in the spring time. It's always been one of my favorite episodes. :D Loved your reaction, Lt. Jen! You had your blankie at the ready, set for shielding. :)))
That beloved 4th season continues. That Conspiracy show, in the 1st season, being my favorite episode was becoming more hard to remember after this show. Dr Crusher's scene was the best!!
I love your reactions, Jen. You seem like a really good person and it's always a pleasure to see you react to Star Trek episodes. Also, you're a fellow Canadian if I'm not mistaken.
Lanei Chapman played the Ensign you see at the beginning. She starred in a few movies, my favorite being "Rat Race!" Definitely worth watching! Every ship should have a Data but as "Measure Of A Man" explored, that's a whole new race.
"Eyes in the dark... one moon circles..." pops into my head randomly and gets stuck there sometimes. Creepy AF. A genuinely scary episode. Gave me friggin' nightmares as a kid.
now that's my TNG! love this episode! watching you reacting to it proves that it still holds up and that you are ready for Twin Peaks! the mysteries and ambiance awaits! awesome video!
It was also an incredibly brave thing for any TV show to portray at the time: A _man_ openly admitting he is terrified in a world where that isn't considered acceptable.
4 seasons in and you still sing along to the opening theme....it's GREAT!! I love it! This one was VERY scary watching it live way back in the day. It's fun to re-watch them with you. Commercial break!
I can just imagine how the conversation would go if they ever met the crew of the other ship.... TROI: Why were you being so enigmatic? Why didn't you just say something simple, like.... "Help. We need hydrogen." ALIEN: One moon circles. TROI: Yes, I know.... hydrogen. But why be so mysterious about it? ALIEN: Eyes in the dark. TROI: You see, that's what I'm talking about. What does that even mean? ALIEN: See the eyes in the dark. TROI: What? ALIEN: One moon circles. TROI: Why are you doing this? ALIEN: Eyes in the dark. TROI: You know what.... never-mind!
I hope he did. Once the alien ship was freed they would have stopped sending their telepathic messages so they wouldn't be in his head any longer. In the episode we only saw Troi having the dreams but as a full Betazoid he was probably still being affected too. Once it stopped he was hopefully not too far gone to recover.
Thanks Jen, I’m not creeped out by this episode. Dreaming, directed dreaming, lucid dreaming, I find it all fascinating. I jumped in the Way Back machine last night, in fact. Dreamed I was in 1968 in a brew house watching the Beatles play on stage. I happened to look in a mirror, and I was a teenager and had long hair. Anything is possible in lucid dreams, but that’s the first time I’ve made it back to ‘68! 😂
I love to watch this episode on Halloween as I think this makes for a great Halloween episode... The morgue scene actually makes me laugh because I know that one of those actors is sitting there thinking, "I studied in Julliard for years just so I can sit here on a table with a bag over my head." I can't help but think one of those actors is thinking that and it makes me laugh every time.
This was always one of my favorite episodes. I especially like when the Betazoid guy tells Troi "eyes in the dark." That was such a great reveal, and Marina's reaction is really cool to watch.
Marina Sirtis had asked to be involved in more action scenes, so the scenes with Troi flying were one of the writers' attempts to oblige her. The only problem was that Sirtis was afraid of heights and hated being on the flying harness.
Jen for what it's worth, this is probably the second-most creepy TNG episode. You'll know (probably) when you get to the creepiest :) I'm glad that they're not ALL like this, but also I like that they're not afraid to go here either.
I INTENTIONALLY avoid blood-&-guts Horror movies, for fear of getting nightmares; but I LOVE psychological thrillers (like “Silence of the Lambs” or “The Sixth Sense”), & this episode DEFINITELY Falls into that category!
@@augiegirl1 Jen has done both of those films you mentioned, they'll be here on her channel and the full length reactions on her Patreon. Both great reactions, Sixth Sense is a double reaction with Jen and her editor friend. I love the Dr. Lecter franchise, I've read Silence of the Lambs about 5 times. It expands a lot upon what we saw in the movie.
6:31 -- RE: The Morgue Scene; Star Trek on the whole doesn't have all that many creepy scenes, but dang, this one takes the first place ribbon for me even though its a fairly standard setup for narratives that involve the undead. The next best one to this IMO is the scene in Star Trek II where Kirk goes looking for Carol Marcus and finds the space station abandoned.
There aren't very many horrorish episodes, but the ones they made, they made well. And I'm with you. I always like it when Data winds up in charge, even for a little bit.
The biggest flaw with this episode is that if the alien could speak English enough to say “one moon circling like eyes in the dark”, they could have just as easily said, “Hey we need hydrogen!”
Not necessarily. "Eyes in the dark" could simply be the closest their language can come to an English interpretation. When Marco Polo first saw monkeys, he described them as "men with tails" because he had never seen a monkey before and no term had yet been invented for the animal. He only knew they somewhat resembled humans and they had tails, so "men with tails" was the best he could do at the time.
Fun fact: The actors hated this episode, especially Marina Siritis. She didn't like being strung up in ropes doing the dream sequences. I loved it though!
Some pretty creepy scenes in this episode and i wonder what else Guinan is hiding behind the bar.......maybe it's better not to ask. Loved the heroic music on Data at the end.
This is one of the few episodes Deanna Troi is doing something useful with her abilities and figures the solution out. I would have loved to have her as the hero in the endscene. Nothing against Data, but this was not a Data episode - it was a Troi episode.
Did this one creep you out?

Where is Episode 16 Galaxy's Child?
When I first saw this it definitely creeped out teenage me. I thought about all the civilians & kids. Imagine growing up on Enterprise D. You'd have a lot of crazy things almost kill you a lot!
What happened to episode 16 "Galexy's Child"? You missed one.
Mrs Jen....you keep saying Space madness n I HAAAVVEEE to ask if you're referring to Ren&Stimpy "space madness"😅cuz if you Are...that is heeeeelarious.
@@baronmunchausen9252 Jen posted Galaxy's Child last week, but it got taken down for copyright.
The morgue scene is one of the most terrifying scenes in Star Trek, it freaked me out as a kid.
All those bodies sitting up sent a shiver down my spine.
That scene *STILL* freaks me out and I'm 44 and am pretty solid through most horror movies.
Same!
Absolutely! No jump scare or scary voice, just silence and the bodies suddenly being upright... This is how you create horror. It still works today.
Yeah, it is definitely up there. The clicking in the holodeck, if you recall the scene I'm talking about in a later episode, is one of the most terrifying scenes for me.
Jen: "I'll get my blanket in case it's too scary."
Me: "Lieutenant, you're out of uniform!" 😅🤣
Seeing Worf so broken that he abandoned his post to commit suicide was shocking. A Klingon warrior afraid to face his fears.
Especially Worf who is the most spiritual Klingon Warrior since Kahless.
@@3Rayfire 🤣
When Picard screamed "NO!!!" in the turbolift, I had a flashback to his mindmeld "NO!!!"
This might be one of the episodes where someone on TOR's rewatches of episodes commented: "You know, without Data, the entire crew would be dead. A lot."
It's actually a good supporting argument for when that guy wanted to take Data apart so that every starship could have a Data on board. Every spaceship SHOULD have an android of some sort to help run the ship. (Or at least a good one, like Data)
And this is how I learned about REM sleep.
RIGHT?? Star Trek being educational is the best.
Me too!
My favorite part of Sunday mornings is watching your TNG reactions whilst cooking breakfast for my family outside in the griddle. Ty
Aw so sweet! So glad to hear that 🖖☺️
I have breakfast cooked and the coffee is brewed. I'm sitting at a TV tray eating and drinking it with no distractions... but I feel ya.
Very unsettling episode, and it sticks with you. I first saw this episode when I was a little kid, and I tell ya, I have never forgotten how important REM sleep is. 😂
As a person with a sleep disorder, I know firsthand how debilitating sleep deprivation can be. Watching these characters being forgetful, irritable, depressed, unfocused, looked really familiar to me lol.
Same with the episode Schisms.
06:40 - this is the only time star trek genuinely scared the hell out of me. I still get goose bumps from this episode!
seriously? Violations one the one that truly traumatised me. Beverley and Jean-Luc seemingly floating down the corridor to see Jack Crusher's body, suddenly Jack is Jev, he opens his eyes, Beverley screams and turns to Jean-Luc, who is also now Jev... NOPE

Minimal damage likely since it was usually loaded with rock salt instead of shot.
Did you notice the alien ship escape the Tychan's rift at the same time that the Enterprise did? That was cool.
It reminded me of something out of Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
@@olddog330 I wonder if the Enterprise contacted them.
It gets a bad rap but Night Terrors is still one of my evergreen faves from TNG.
This is one of my all-time favorite Trek episodes purely for the creep factor. The music, especially, really works well with the mysterious atmosphere.

Interesting Trek series crossover event as the young Asian Ensign Lind that Riker had take control of the Conn. Was actually one of the kids in the TOS episode "And the Children Shall Lead."
This was one of those epic episodes based in pop culture. A Nightmare on Elm Street influenced this back then. It's dope.
How fortunate is the Enterprise to have such a dream team of talented and unique individuals? They have the ONLY android in Starfleet, they have the only Klingon, they have an empath / telepath... they never got around to really using Geordi's unique vision, plus all of the other brilliant engineers, medical staffers, command personnel. They have it all!
Yup. There's a reason they're the flagship of the Federation.
“I need to come too.”
Lol. Not the first time Troi’s had to remind Riker of that.😂
I was wondering why the Brattain had such a small crew (about 34 if my memory is correct). I bet the original script had it as a tiny Oberth class science vessel.
I guess it depends on what their mission was... There was that supply ship, Lantree, that had a crew of 26 and was the same class. I suppose you don't need a lot of people to be "Space Amazon" delivery
And if the ship has 3 shifts, only 1/3 are on duty, 1/3 sleeping, 1/3 off duty.
oh an eerie episode indeed 😳 , i do enjoy Horror so i recall this episode very vividly and i like it when the cast acts outside of their characters , so to see them all act so worn and vulnerable was interesting .
Happy Sunday Jen and the TNG Chat crew .

I liked Data and Troi looking through the inventory - figuring out the other ship was asking FOR something vs. what they have - then instead of a long sentence simply going with "NOW". Kind of a Halloween type episode
This episode really scared the fuck out of me as a kid. That nightmare she had was just too much for me.
That moment with Crusher and the bodies still gives me chills
Brian Tochi made his second Star Trek appearance in this episode. His first was in the original series episode, "And the Children Shall Lead".
I remember watching this episode when I was younger, maybe a bit too young. Scared me half to death.
what about the one with the wierd table, that Troi I think it is, has Riker and some other crewmembers recreate in the holo room
One of my favorite episodes!
Good thing the Enterprise is a deep space exploration vessel. With all the scienceing they do, they had a wide assortment of elements on board. Granted hydrogen is one of the most basic, but it's good to have a wide range of options.
& yet they didn't have anicium & yurium (the elements that Bela Tyken used to escape).
I totally forgot how many spooky episodes TNG had. More than all the other shows.
12:37 Guinan shoots into the ceiling and no chickens fall.
That's a missed opportunity 😂
Troi (and Data) to the rescue! I was waiting for Jen to react to this episode. Forcing her to show love to Troi and give her flowers 😂
We know Jen has been hard on her in the past 😉😂
I've said before Troi is the hardest character to write on this show
Enjoyed both episode reactions as always! The creepy mystery episodes are among my favourites, so fun to watch.

The morgue scene haunts me to this day....also Riker demonstrating what it's like camping in the Australian outback with that bed full of sneks!
Of the 25 episodes that my mom & dad have on VHS, this is my #4 (2 & 3 are in season 5, & 1 is in season 6).
Lanei Chapman played the Ensign you see at the beginning. She starred in a few movies, my favorite being "Rat Race!" Definitely worth watching!
Every ship should have a Data but as "Measure Of A Man" explored, that's a whole new race.
Guinan also seemed immune to the effects.
I love the Twilight Zone style episodes. The lighting was excellent.
"Eyes in the dark... one moon circles..." pops into my head randomly and gets stuck there sometimes. Creepy AF. A genuinely scary episode. Gave me friggin' nightmares as a kid.
A great reaction, Jen, thank you for your hard work bringing us these Star Trek TNG episodes. 🙂
Thanks for your help in the live chat 🖖☺️
@@jenmurrayxo It's my pleasure, Jen, thank you for your confidence in me. 🙂
now that's my TNG! love this episode! watching you reacting to it proves that it still holds up and that you are ready for Twin Peaks! the mysteries and ambiance awaits! awesome video!
The bat or weapon of some sort is an old trope so I wasn’t even surprised.
This is one of my favorite episodes
I think about this episode a lot, whenever I think about lack of sleep and what can happen. But it's also one of my favourite episodes!
I offer my vote for the morgue scene as the best of the episode.
They should have made Guinan's gun prop heavier though. It looked like it was as light as a water pistol when she first picks it up...
I forgot this episode was so late in the series.
A nice memorable bottle episode.
You're reactions are the best part of my Sunday mornings.
🖖☺️
and Worf trying killing himself... very hard moment.
It was also an incredibly brave thing for any TV show to portray at the time: A _man_ openly admitting he is terrified in a world where that isn't considered acceptable.
I luv Guinan pulling out the Peacemaker! No gettin Out of hand! Not in 10-forward!! Thanks Jen ❤️💛
REM sleep is when Michael Stipe appears in your dreams and endlessly bombards you with Shiny Happy People.
...or possibly Day Sleeper.
🤣🤣🤣
For me he only sings STAND at about 50% regular speed, while I'm tied to a chair
John Vickery played the Betazoid male, he'd go on to be cast as Neyroun in Babylon 5, another amazing scifi series.
Ohhh yeah
Never mind the blanket, grab a phaser!
I admired what the makeup people did to the cast to make them look... And Patrick Stewart's voice cracking at the end of the episode.
Guinan keeps a weapon under the bar. Data takes command. Yeh!
4 seasons in and you still sing along to the opening theme....it's GREAT!! I love it!
This one was VERY scary watching it live way back in the day. It's fun to re-watch them with you.
Commercial break!
I can just imagine how the conversation would go if they ever met the crew of the other ship....
TROI: Why were you being so enigmatic? Why didn't you just say something simple, like.... "Help. We need hydrogen."
ALIEN: One moon circles.
TROI: Yes, I know.... hydrogen. But why be so mysterious about it?
ALIEN: Eyes in the dark.
TROI: You see, that's what I'm talking about. What does that even mean?
ALIEN: See the eyes in the dark.
TROI: What?
ALIEN: One moon circles.
TROI: Why are you doing this?
ALIEN: Eyes in the dark.
TROI: You know what.... never-mind!
I`m so sorry I missed the live event. But great time as always. :)
What I love, is that 18 seconds in Riker stands up, and Jenn does the picard maneuver :) Primo :)
Guinan with the space bazooka.
Great Picard face in the thumb, Jen! Your thumbs are always fun!
Just wanted to say thank you Jen for another great Star Trek reaction, they are always the highlight of my week 🖖.
One thing that always got me for this episode was that we never find out if the other betazoid recovered or not
I hope he did. Once the alien ship was freed they would have stopped sending their telepathic messages so they wouldn't be in his head any longer. In the episode we only saw Troi having the dreams but as a full Betazoid he was probably still being affected too. Once it stopped he was hopefully not too far gone to recover.
If someone ever proposes marriage to you, and you accept, you should reply with "engaged"
My wife did that.

I can’t believe that Beverly Crusher don’t have access to Benadryl! That would help the crew go back to sleep.
Knew that Guinan's peacemaker would please tactical Jen. 😇
This was always one of my favorite episodes. I especially like when the Betazoid guy tells Troi "eyes in the dark." That was such a great reveal, and Marina's reaction is really cool to watch.
That thumbnail is great
Congrats on your promotion, Lieutenant Jen

Hi Jen hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤️
12:35 It happens often that Guinan is a very impressive character, but I'm not aware of many instances in which she gets to be a total _badass._

Ah yes, we're here at one moon circles
One of my fav episodes despite me not liking horror.

Imagine this happened to a Romulan starship. All dead.
Great ep! I love when Next Gen does scary / creepy eps. Though they are rare. Great reaction! 💜
As far as anyone knows, they just hallucinated Guinan pulling out a gun on them, so she can reasonably assume it's still a secret.
Lieutenant Jen Murray, I’d like to welcome you to my Star Trek Fan Club. 🖖

I bet they had some weird dreams after that.
As usual Jen, an amazing reaction. This is one of my favourites of the season. I know i am biased i just love Marina Sirtis, lol.

@@redpillfreedom6692 Perhaps, but I’m pretty sure Marco Polo didn’t have a computerized translator at his disposal.
But the aliens' word for hydrogen probably wouldn't have been hydrogen.
