   S05E03, Ensign Ro: I really like this episode, Ro Laren is an interesting character and we'll see her again in several more episodes.

     S05E02, Darmok: A fan favorite. And that’s no surprise, you can’t really imagine many other shows doing an episode like this.

     S04E26 & S05E01, Redemption Part 1 & 2: More Klingon drama, completing the story arc that started in S04E07, Reunion. Not as iconic a cliffhanger as The Best of Both Worlds, but two solid episodes.

     S04E21, The Drumhead: One of my favorite season 4 episodes, featuring a great Picard speech.

     S04E12, The Wounded: The uneasy peace between the Federation and the Cardassians gets put to the test. Important episode setting up some of the story for DS9, with Chief O'Brien as a main character.

     S04E11, Data's Day: A charming Data episode including the pursuit of an untamed ornithoid without cause and the wedding of Chief O'Brien and Keiko.

     S04E03, Brothers: The story of Data and Lore continues. A lot of Brent Spiner in this episode, which is great.

     S04E02, Family: Picard goes to his hometown in France to recover from his Borg experience, Worf gets embarrassed by his human adoptive parents, and Wesley meets his dead father. Slightly cheesy episode, but some nice character background.

     S03E26/S04E01, The Best of Both Worlds part 1 & 2: The best cliffhanger in Trek. A two episode story featuring everyone's favorite baddies, the Borg, going on an unusual recruitment drive to hire a spokesman.

     S03E23, Sarek: Spock's dad comes onboard the Enterprise for a diplomatic mission. First mention of Bendii Syndrome and some good acting. Solid episode.

     S03E18, Allegiance: Skippable, but overall a pretty entertaining episode with some funny Picard moments.

     S03E17, Sins of the Father: An important Worf episode and a good Klingon episode in general. We also get to meet Worf's brother, Kurn.

     S03E16, The Offspring: Data creates a second Soong-style Android, Lal. A touching episode similar to "The Measure of a Man".

     S03E15, Yesterday's Enterprise: A classic TNG time travel episode. Tasha makes a brief comeback, to get the send-off she deserved. Also, what a weird opening dialog between Worf and Guinan.

     S03E13, Déjà Q: I'm generally not the biggest fan of Q episodes, but this one is kinda alright. Though the ending makes the whole episode a bit pointless IMO.

     S03E04, Who Watches the Watchers: A nice episode about the Prime Directive. Picard has to convince an alien species that he is not a god after the accidentally reveal themselves to a pre-warp civilization.

     S02E09, The Measure of a Man: Trek goes courtroom drama. One of the all time great TNG episodes. Still liked this as much as when I originally saw it on TV back then.

     S02E08, A Matter of Honor: Riker goes on an officer exchange on a Klingon ship. I always liked this episode and still do. "Gagh is always best when served live" is such an iconic sentence.

     S01E25, The Neutral Zone: Return of the Romulans and an insufferable rich guy who should have been yeeted into space. An unremarkable ending to an overall unremarkable season, but we're not too far away from the first really good episode now.

     S01E24, Conspiracy: A bit of an unusual episode. Apart from the bad special effects I actually quite liked this, the bar is low in S01 anyway.

     S01E22, Skin of Evil: The only reason to watch this episode is to witness the (pointless) death of a major character, Lieutenant Natasha "Tasha" Yar. Killed by one of the most unimpressive villains in Trek history, Armus.

     S01E19, Heart of Glory: Worf's loyalties get tested as we learn about his backstory. Could have skipped this, but it's an important Worf episode and he's the character who appears most across the franchise (277 episodes & 5 movies).
