I love the episode where a mysterious stranger arrives on the Enterprise, and they're not all that they seem.
The next 4hrs and 40 minutes of my life are now filled with tng
Shut up, Wesley.
Tyler…I don’t even…almost 5 hours?
You didn’t have to go this hard! But I’m glad you did!
Hi Mike. :)
So similar to my youth
There's never too much Trek.
I find this great comfort watching and binging especially when feeling a little low always find it as good as the first time I've seen it
Oh man, your TNG stuff is some of my very favouritest stuff on UA-cam. Also, while I'm here, your Vape God meme is absolutely amazing! Thank you for doing what you do, Tyler. 👌👍👍
Dude, you are an absolute benchmark of a TNG fan! Thank you for assembling this lovely Retro and your thoughts along the TNG journey!
Cheers!
Thank you!
Nice, This will be good to hear while playing my annual November Mass Effect run! Thanks Tyler!
I'm just glad I'm not the only one finding myself playing through the ME trilogy every year or so
Every N7 Day its a 250 mods trilogy playthrough for me! xD
Almost ended the video early because I didn’t realize it wasn’t over with the outtros left in
I listened to half of this while cleaning my entire house. Such a vibe. Gonna save the other half for next week. 🎉
haha now I have a good plan for my morning: listen to this and play old PS2 Star Wars games! Talk about being "lost in space"!
Never had this much fun binge watching TNG!
12:11 “this video is getting pretty long already”
Just in time for a long drive!
Good timing for my chores :)
What a find. I've got TNG playing in the background as we speak (and most of the day anyway lol) and use it as my work background noise. Great comfort. You've done a wonderful job; thanks for this. Think you've got a new supporter. Measure of a Man was when TNG got my attention and I knew I was onboard.
"In other words, STFU" Bro went personal.
The vape god comment had me rolling … that was elite
Finally! I can lock myself in my room and watch the best cover of this grandiose series
I haven't watched the video yet, but I know it will be awesome.
I hope that there's a couple hours devoted to the ongoing saga of master-pokerman Worf, decisively winning in, "The Emissary," to drastically loosing every game thereafter, while being ridiculed by Data and Geordi.
This has joined a small handfull of videos I will watch regularly to supress the noise. Thank very much Mister River.
This is fantastic. I'm a very big fan of your channel, and your TNG content is definitely some of the best on UA-cam. 4+ hours for TNG is phenomenal. Thank you! Keep up the content and hard work.
You sir just earned yourself a new subscriber! Qapla’!!
Thank you so very much for the retrospective...
Makes for an epic bedtime story without having to watch entire episodes.
In addition your witticisms are a gut busting. I live in a wooded area. During your moments of silence, I could actually hear the crickets outside! It made me laugh even harder.
Thank you and may the Force be with you...
Oh I meant Live long and prosper!
Peace!
Pulaski is actually great. I think it was partly shock, partly dislike of older women and partly love of Crusher that made her so unpopular. I was sorry to hear Diana Muldaur had such a bad experience working on TNG, but I was also happy to have Crusher return.
On my current rewatch, Pulaski grows on me. My beef is coldness toward data.
Your humour and insight added 10 years to my life haha. Thanks!
Your videos are like comfort food.
Super thanks for super entertainment. You rock!
Thank you so much!
One story line that I'd like to have seen was one where a first contact happens by a pre-warp society accidentally tuning into the subspace communications network.
Surprised this hasn't happened. I mean didn't the Trill develop subspace communication before they developed ftl according to Beta canon?
@Nostripe361 yeah, but it was never shown. there are some prime directive episodes that have hints of it. I think there is one where Data communicates with a little girl on a dying pre-warp planet.
@@mystuff8602 yeah that’s the episode Pen pals. Here planet is basically suffering the apocalypse from the movie 2012 but due to the dilithium in their planet’s crust her radio was able to reach into sub space and be picked up by Data.
Good episode though it does make some of the crew seem like dicks for not wanting to stop an extinction of a sentient species just became they haven’t reach warp yet
SNW started with a sort of lateral take on that idea. It's a great and realistic premise that as a first contact story would be interesting and different plus allow us to see what Starfleet protocols are concerning this "NOW" in a post pen pal continuity. I don't mind the Prime Directive Eps or how that rule is set up... But a civilization capable of communication through the void before it breaks the Warp barrier is interesting as a proposition. In Pen Pals it was happenstance... What happens when it's intentional? What happens when an alien's civilization's version of SETI breaks into a Starfleet subspace channel?
Food for thought.
Thoroughly enjoying this supercut since I realized I never watched the movies portion, and these bloopers are great.
Outstanding! I can't wait to get down on this! Thank you for making/sharing!
i woke up today unsure what to do asked myself whats good on youtube saw this and went welp there goes my entire day i have watched it all thank you
YES! Finally
Watched the whole thing as my first video on your channel and subbed early in. You got the UA-cam algorithm figured out.
Loved the video big respect for the almost 5hrs of TNG content. btw has anyone ever mentioned how you look related to neocranium all I could think of for the first few to camera portions of the video
Dont skip 1 and 2.... just remember they are written nostly by the 1940s born Tos writers and is more campy.
The royale is one of my favourite ever episodes of star trek
Did you watch any other episodes?
This is the right formula! Love your content *and* longwinded videos. Put it on, let it play - do other stuff. Lovely (: Pls more
TNG is my fav ST series of all time. I love the characters, the silliness, and its overall positivity.
My only real complaint about it is it's bizarre fascination with historical figures. Those episodes were always the worst and incredibly dull. At least the bad episodes like Sub Rosa were hilarious, haha.
commenting for the algo. thank you, guys. this is awesome.
Thank you!
the best 4 hours and 40 minutes of my life. Thanks for the great videos Tyler
Oooh yeah this is the stuff. I'm about to fall asleep like hell to this
I am a Super Fan of TNG and Star Trek in total. This is a great video and one that needs to be done for all of the Star Trek series. Forget the crap after Enterprise.
You mean after Voyager.
@@BanjoSick No i meant Enterprise (2001-2005) Voyager was aired (1995 - 2001_
@@user-nn2dg5rm5b I get that. This a joke. But as every joke has a cernel of truth, that show was not good, ecxept for those thirsty shower scenes of T’pol, haha. They made my day as a kid!
I've a personal theory that 'Hide and Q' is possibly the beginning of an acute inferiority complex, within Will...
Ultimately why he refuses promotions...
Yet silll, I feel this is more a good thing and Will becomes instilled with more of an admiration...rather three a complex.
He's ejected with a new purpose to better ones self... Although he could see this as something ultimately unachievathe...yet that's no reason not to try..!!
Dad says , I can watch one more video before bed. 😊
I just hit the halfway point. Party on. ❤
I'm at the hologram Leah 😅
Putting a password would have solved it. Locking things up is not bad. I'm a Romulan spy
I've been watching tng again lately. Some of the costumes and effects are dated now, but the show still looks amazing close to 40 years later. And the stories are still amazing. It was actually a show I hated as a kid because it was "boring" but I absolutely love it later in life.
I really appreciate these videos. I got my girlfriend into Star Trek through the movies and am currently half way through the first season of TOS with her. I was worried she wouldn't wanna watch TNG since so much of its first two seasons are not very good, but with your curated episode list, I think I might be able to get her through it without subjecting her to the worst TNG has to offer. :)
Have I seen all of the TNG retrospectives more than once (including watching them all in order in one sitting)? Yes.
Will I watch this video in one sitting? Also yes.
I just noticed that I was unsubscribed from your channel... But I have been subscribed for a very long time. Thought it was weird, and so did my wife because we watch you together sometimes.
1.5 speed engaged sir! Not a complaint tho, thanks for doing what you do. Love me some trek, especially TNG! So much detail.
Amazing video and a great way to relive the series! Love your passion for Trek
Thank you!
Chain of command look-awesome! ❤ (3 hours and one minute in lol)
The first episode I ever saw was conspiracy. I was 8
Hooked for life now. I love every episode even the "bad" ones.
I really like the creepy, surreal tone of Season 1, it's reminiscent of ST:TMP in a way. I think its perfect for a series about unknown space.
As an Irish man I love up the long ladder as do the elders in my family. As Irish people we know how to have fun.
Yeah my use of the word "racist" in this context is slightly tongue-in-cheek but I've had several Irish fans say they thought it was hilarious too 🤣
Don't take this wrong but this is great to fall asleep to
Haha, I understand!
@@OrangeRiver it's not boring, it's just great content to listen to when dozing. I hope you do more in depth reviews on episodes. Great work and great humour 👍🏼
So happy to see that we've got hours of new TNG content tonenjoy 😂
I was about to rewatch S1 & S2! Get out of my head, Tyler!
“I’m gonna say ‘pilot’!”
Or “premiere”. Premiere is a perfectly appropriate word.
ive heard that before, but i would only say season 1 is the outlier. season 2 has some really important, and really good episodes, and shouldnt be missed!
jonathon frakes grew out the beard because he needed it for his part in north and south part 2
Great stuff! Takes me back to child days..
Loved this entire thing, although I think I need to take issue with something. When Wort kills Duras I believe it was less to do with Duras framing Worf’s father and more about Duras killing Kalar, Worf’s mate and the mother to his son Alexander.
1:24:54 "You enjoyed that." "You're damned right."
I’d rather naked now than the binar episode. It established some of the few character traits between Data and Tasha that reverberate into the rest of the series
Good vid thanks
In the book Picard had Gomez killed for ruining his favorite pajama.
Is that Dawd god? I mean, he wiped out an entire species with just a thought.
"Genesis" is a fun body horror episode.
* Hey guys! Don't forget to hit that like button, comment, share this video and subscribe. It really helps the channel a lot. Thanks! *
I don't think having continuity of consciousness disproves the idea that transporter does not kill the original body. The converse relies on the uniqueness of consciousness which was never explicitly stated. It can be seen as a directive of the transporter systems to ensure only one consciousness "survives", rather than some explicit rule of the universe.
the way you said "Back Packs" during your merch ad read... *chefs kiss*
Rest in peace Kestra, the Troi in the Koi
I think you dwelled too much on Galaxy's Child lol😅
The D is the most beautiful ship out there. None close.
TNG is weird, as in retrospect it exemplifies two contradictory views of the 18th-20st centuries :
1) It exemplified the glorification of the "thinking man" who through scientific leaps and breakthroughs he has killed God, and was on his way to becoming God like through his imagination , technology and ... triumph of his will ... .
In other words, it's a celebration of "Modernity" , of the same spirit and caliber that sought to design the Titanic ... , the unsinkable ship .
2) On the other hand it also had in it the seeds of the 1960's-1980's that eventually coalesced into the cancer we now know as "post modernism" , that begun with examining not only our triumphs , but our failures as well -- going so far as exemplifying the 1980's craze of self examination & psychology with putting a psychiatrist on the bridge of the flag ship, right next to the captain .
These 3 decades and it's academic products have post-2000 morphed from examining and questioning "Modernity" to the absolute hatred of said "Modernity" that previously mentioned "post Modernity" has morphed into -- exemplified in Trek through the first two Seasons of "Picard" , in which the "old white hetrosexual European male Picard" (i.e. everything wrong with 'Modernity' according to 'post Modernity') gets put down , is lectured , made to feel backwards an useless and in general is there to be lectured by the Strong Independent Female Who Don't Need No Man™ trope .
Sadly, said caricatures of womanhood (exemplified in Discovery, Picard, SNW, and Lower Decks) don't see themselves as being just as one dimensional and flawed as James T. "every week gets new girl" Kirk ever was, as the majority of their shows have little to no educational values or positive visions of the future for kids and young adults .
Modern Star Trek (1967-2005) with all it's flaws was a candle light of hope of a better, more enlightened future for all man kind, most of it made by men and women in an era where the grim reality of the Bomb getting intentionally or mistakenly dropped was a day to day reality in the Cold War (see Sarah Connor's nightmares in Terminator 2 for more details) .
Once the Cold War ended, and we began to usher in a relative "time of peace" -- we ran out of "the other" to hate, and began to hate ourselves in earnest ... -- with "current Trek" being a reflection of that self hatred , in which we demand Borg like agreement on everything (ideological conformity) put labels on those who disagree, and falsely believe that we still adhere to the ideals of IDIC , because we present the outward appearance of our highly vaunted "diversity" .
We became superficial . So our Star Trek became superficial .
You seem to be poisoned by right wing ideology and the scumbags that call themselves right wing influencers. I was once a right wing conservative when I was very young and thankfully I couldnt vote because I truly believed its economic and foreign policy policies, never was a bigot,fascist, or being pro forced birth. Learning history, right wing and left wing policies and the effects they have over time, especially living and feeling the effects of Reagan and every right wing and centrist democrat president since has shown us that right wing polices have stripped society of our labor and wealth for it to go to the morbidly wealthy. Capitalism and the bad things that it brings like the pursuit of profit over all things foe the upper class while creating a lower class that must work to survive due to the small amount of the profit after expenses that are given to the lower class while the rest allows the upper to thrive, this is the cause of our shows we like not being as good as previous shows we liked. At least besides personal opinions. Capitalism ruins art and star trek is no different, even though I enjoy all the new trek shows. Picard season 3 was fine but mostly throwing nostaglia at you constantly so I honestly liked season 1 better but not season 2 at all. I hope you can find the hope of a world without money,class,poverty, and bigotry in the new star trek shows that still have all these things the previous shows had. Ive been watching Trek since TNG was new and remember all the right wing fascist bigots that hated a Sisko and Janeway with her black Vulcan. Please dont fall down that road. Start learning how we can end money,class,poverty, and bigotry and telling people about these things so we can get our species out of this slavery we have imposed on ourselves but mostly from Capitalism and capitalists, dont worry, the Soviets were just as bad since they basically had a state capitalist system with freedoms put down but did have some decent humanity first polices like healthcare and education for all unlike us. Lenin betrayed the revolution after winning power and it went downhill from there. Democratizing the workforce is one way we start down that road so we can have this world for ourselves or more than likely our descendants. I will end this ramble by saying also get healthy, strong, and jacked to the best of your ability. You can reply back once you can for 1 rep max at least, deadlift 405lb, squat 315lb, bench 225lb, and overhead press 135lb while not being obese or greatly overweight. Plant based diet is the healthiest diet we currently know but I understand if you might eat some type of lean meat once in awhile. See you in about a year or 2 if you start today depending on your age, genetics, and bulk/cut/maintain/recomp cycle you will do not mentioning your split and program either.
I was there.... on the ground in the 80's man.... we didn't just say no.
Excellent work!
Back again!
The episode outcast for me was an egg-crack moment and it made me realize being something besides what i was assigned at birth was possible.
Love your stuff, i wish i was wealthy enough to finance all your work. Thanks and keep it up.
AMAZING VIDEO. I'll probably watch this multiple times now.
:D
I always liked the Ferengi and how they're caricatures of capitalists. I thought they would have made good villains in TNG, but the openly Fascist Romulans ended up being much scarier and more intense, and probably a better match up with the Federation, who strives for peaceful and inclusive diplomatic relations with all of its member planets instead of domination. DS9 really leans into the Ferengi and I think they work better in that setting anyway
I never noticed as a kid watching these episodes that had Lwaxana Troi in it that her eyes are solid black. I mean was that a choice they made or what? Her eyes are huge and jet black like she high as hell.
Who knew the Miami Dolphins head coach also had a UA-cam channel reviewing TNG . . . 🤷🏾♂️😉
Are you interested in Sliders or Quantum’s Leap?
Holy crap this is 4+ hours!
@@subraxas oh I understand, I just did a spit-take! That was an initiation reaction. It has been great to watch them.
Lovely stuff!
That little edit in Transfigurations with the close up of the crotch was hilarious.
They called the Icarus Factor "Riker's Father" in Germany.
Omg I’m excited lol yessss!!! Perfect knitting motivation!!!
I felt and feel that the hugh episode is the first that messes up the Borg. For some reason, even though we thought the show might end with that cliffhanger where Picard goes Borg, it ends up established that it's not that difficult to deborg a Borg (actually, I suppose it begins with how easy it was to deborg Picard .) i felt cheated by how that cliffhanger resolved. It should have taken more. But as of now there are at least 3 deborgs in star trek.
Federation being the Alpha of Alpha!!!
Thanks for the supercut. It was super. Are you gonna do Voyager next?
Haha I haven't even done DS9
@@OrangeRiver no worries man, I'll wait. Gotta watch ds9 anyway.
1:08:09 as an Irish man I love this episode
I like your channel. You look like Stephen Merchant.
You goggle-eyed freak.
Well. I know what I'm doing for the next half of a work day!
This was really good ty
Boothby was the lead in the series My Favorite Martian.
Hahaha!! Love the Twilight Zone insert!
And I thought Robin's Laws was a GM guide by Steve Jackson Games.
Cant wait for DS9 😁😁
You make seasons one and two seem palatable. Good work, Gene couldn't even do that. I've loved TNG since it first aired, but by The One, those first two seasons are rugged.
To be honest, i wouldn't reallys suggest anyone skip season 1 or especially season 2. yeah they both have their share of bad episodes, but so do the other seasons (particularly 5 and 7), and as someone who really appreciates "the beginnings of things", for me, the bad season 1 episodes are more interesting than the bad season 7 episodes, because you can certainly tell they haven't quite figured everything out the way they would later when the series just kind of coasts along on goodwill from time to time. Farpoint really was a grand event, whatever one can say now about the weak and kind of cobbled together elements of the script. People were still talking about Conspiracy years later. The Battle was the first episode I ever watched (with my older cousins) and as an eight-or-so-year-old who already had vague familiarity with TOS I thought it was pretty much the coolest thing ever. And I really don't mind that Riker, Worf and even Picard haven't really been nailed down as characters yet. Riker in particular is often pretty far away from what he'd be later, and seeing him get all high and mighty and self-righteous about how much better the Federation is than everyone else just cracks me up. Early TNG is so pleased with itself and thinks it's awesome even when it isn't, and to me, there's a real charm to that, which kind of got lost later on when things really settled down. There are other things I enjoy about the early seasons. There was a lot more variety in the music and composers. You got guys like Joesph Stefano from the old Outer Limits show writing episodes. I like Pulaski in the second season. And that second season is in my opinion just as strong as many of the later ones despite featuring Manhunt, Up the Long Ladder and Shades of Grey. I've been rewatching the show with a couple of youngger friends who have never seen TNG before, and while I have been skipping episodes I think are particularly poor (they can always come back to those later), you bet we did most of season 1, and are about halfway through season 2 now. Measure of a Man was of course a real hit, as was Contagion. Unfortunately they already know about the Borg, whose reputation has broken outside of Star Trek itself, to the detriment of both in my opinion, but I'm sure Q Who will also go down well when we get to it later this week.
Well done!!
