Profile of Star Trek: The Next Generation

The mood of Star Trek: The Next Generation is exciting and suspenseful. The plot centers around space wars, an alien encounter, and imaginary themes. It is an adventure, sci-fi, and action TV show. Stylistically, Star Trek: The Next Generation is futuristic. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. It takes place, at least partly, on a spacecraft. Star Trek: The Next Generation is based on a TV series. The TV show is known for being a cult favorite, a hit series, and an Emmy winner. It is especially suggested for teens and a boys' night.

Summary of Star Trek: The Next Generation

Nearly two decades after the cancellation of the original STAR TREK television series, creator Gene Roddenberry launched the first of what was to be four phenomenally successful spinoffs with STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION. Set in the 24th century (nearly 100 years after the stewardship of Captain Kirk), the series introduced an all-new cast of intergalactic travellers exploring the farthest reaches out of outer space on a mission to chart new planets and alien civilizations. Ship commander Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) anchored the crew of the Starship Enterprise-D with a sensitive reserve that marked a distinct contrast to his trigger-happy predecessor, whose role was assumed by the Kirk-like second-in-command, William Riker (Jonathan Frakes). Rounding out the cast were the Spock-like android Data (Brent Spiner); blind officer Geordi La Forge (LeVar Burton); Klingon officer Worf (Michael Dorn); ship doctor Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden); her teenage son, Wesley (Wil Wheaton); and psychic psychiatrist Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis). Considered one of the best STAR TREK spinoffs for its intelligent writing and superb sci-fi special effects, THE NEXT GENERATION lives on in cult fandom.

Before my time. Movies were great.
I liked the Borg, disliked the filler. Q never really had much of a backstory. Great potential series. acting was a bit dull / laid back. There weren't enough developed stories given the length of the series. Good to watch a few of these, and the...
