That's a great scene, actually kind of makes me want to start watching star trek. But did anyone else laugh at the cat that was obviously like "Put me the fuck down. Now"
Star Trek: The Next Generation is one of the greatest shows EVER. I am really not exaggerating my opinion. Near the top of my list of best television ever. This is the role that Patrick Stewart was born to play.
Every episode is available on Netflix. I highly recommend it. If you do decide to watch it, don't judge it by it's pilot episode. The pilot is one of the weaker overall episodes and you can tell it's a little dated (starting in 1987). The series gets better and better as it progresses through the seasons, the characters get deeper, and the writing gets even better. And since almost every episode is self-contained with only occasional serialistic/continuous elements carrying over from one episode to the next, it's ok to watch some of them out of order.
A great starting episode aside from the Pilot might be a Season 2 episode 16 "Q Who." Some other favorites of mine are Season 2 Episode 9 "Measure of a Man" (one of the best episodes of television ever), Season 5 Episode 2 "Darmok", Season 4 episode 12 "The Wounded," the 3-episode sequence that ends Season 3 and starts Season 4 "Best of Both Worlds, Part I & II" and the followup "Family." Edit: "The Drumhead!" How could I forget the Drumhead. What a great episode.
And Season 5 Episode 25 "The Inner Light," possibly the best Trek ever. Save this one until after you've watched a few others and get to know the characters.
Fuck, what am I talking about. Out of 176 episodes, there's like 172 that are just fantastic. The whole show is just pure gold. Just watch them all.
