  • We'll Always Have Paris (TNG)

    When a crazy time experiment causes moments to repeat, Picard is reunited with his old old flame. Do we all wonder “what might have been?” or are some of us just better at closing chapters than others?

  • Skin of Evil (TNG)
    May 1 2025

    When American conservative evil is distilled into a black puddle of sludge that kills a woman, sends innocent people to an El Salvadorian mega prison and wages tarrif wars on friendly nations, Captain Picard is forced to answer the question, “Are some people just unable to embrace compassion and empathy?” It’s the episode that drives home the reality that the cruelty is the point.

  • Symbiosis (TNG)
    Apr 24 2025

    When the D.A.R.E. program takes over the writers room, Star Trek: The Next Generation leans hard into its “Drugs Are Bad Mmmkay” messaging. What happens when the Prime Directive overrides compassion and empathy? Will Beverly ever sleep with Picard again after this?
