Poll question: Favorite Next Generation Episode
My vote in the best series poll was (obviously) NTG. My favorite episode is, without a doubt, Darmok

Please hit other as these are just some of my favs.

1. The Inner Light
I voted for Darmok, which is certainly one of my favorites. But "The Inner Light" is probably in the top three. This was somewhat of a surprise episode, kind of space opera, but extremely powerful. I get all choked up every time I watch it.:cry:

2. I have to go with "The Inner Light" too
That one never fails to make me cry. It is a FINE piece of SF writing, probably the best they had on that show.

And that flute song still haunts me...

9. Me too.
The whole idea of living an entire life, making and losing friends, having children and grandchildren in the space of just 40 minutes is mindblowing.

5. No one thing...
Edited on Wed Nov-17-04 10:29 PM by XanaDUer
Just the general fun-feeling I can feel the cast is having. Also, Troi loosens up and does not say stuff like, "I'm feeling something...", or, "I'm sensing something, Captain."

And when Dorn's Worf tries to arrest the villian at the begining of the ep in that formal Klingon way.

Tho', at the end, Spiner is waaaaaay scary looking as a woman.

11. That's my "other" vote.
That was one of the wildest cliffhangers in TV history as far as I'm concerned...seeing Picard on screen all Borged up as Loqutous (I know that's spelled wrong, I never spell it right). Gave me the chills, and all summer the debates raged on in comic shops...;)
