    I loved season 3, as the 10-hour long TNG send off movie. I’ll probably never rewatch the other two seasons. Even though the cast was fantastic (love me some Rios)- they were wasted.

      Also loved S3.

      It had roughly the same structure as any Muppet movie (we gotta get the whole gang together for one last show!) Say what you will about the Muppets (and by that I mean: choose your words carefully) but God damn it’s a formula that works.

      It’s certainly the last time we’ll see that crew together. Never in a million years could I comprehend they’d put them on the bridge of the Enterprise D.

      Did it have the philosophical explorations that I loved from the series? No. Did I need it to be? No. Where my boys at, how they been? Did thier bonds stand the test of time?

      Rios had so much potential, and instead stays in the past hanging out with Guinan, changing the future DRASTICALLY and dies in a bar fight… over medical supplies. While smoking a cigar.

      Holy shit, that’s some fucked up writing from a 12 year old.

        You can literally just start Season 3 clean, it feels like a totally different show. The only thing you might need to know is who Raffi is, and a small scene with Picard talking about his body. IIRC, season 2 is only referenced once, and it’s a bit of a retcon. Enjoy.
