I watched those again and again as a kid, but it has been so long now that I can't remember the episode that started this discussion. Who was the guest star? (I think this is a GOOD thing, to have forgotten those poor episodes). Wait, it's coming to me. She's has been on one of the daytime soaps for years, I think. So, if these were bad, which one's did you think were best from that series? My mom always loved "The Trouble With Tribbles," though we explained to her that the Klingon's certainly beamed them all into space right after the episode ended.

Of the Star Trek the Next Generation I think the one with Patrick Stewart and Paul Winfield trapped on the planet was excellent--acting-wise. He spoke in metaphores, as I recall. Very postmodern.
