I think the idea could have worked so well, but it was the tongue in cheek element of the character that got to me.

Yesterday's Enterprise. The episode that made me a Trek fan.
I think I mentioned my desktop background on another thread.

Heh, been so long since I've seen the episode I didn't recognize the "C".

Well, it is kinda subtle.
As for Q, I liked most of the episodes he was in, though I preferred the books. (Peter David is awesome.) But I won't hijack the thread by going off on
that tangent. There's probably a book thread here somewhere, I don't visit this area very often...

I'm not a big fan of the Q episodes except the really fun "Q-pid" episode.
Highlighted by worf's "I am NOT a merry man!" And later when he smashes Geordie's attempts at lute playing...
"All Good Things" was a fantastic farewell to the series. I will always remember Picard coming in to Riker's room to play poker. Touching...
Oh, and I too really liked the "Darmok" episode. Very cool. At frist you think it might be a throwback episode when kirk was stranded on a planet to compete with a lizard alien...
I like most of the Picard episode. The one right after he was transformed in to a borg

and goes back to his familial home was wonderful.
OH! The one where his is captured and tortured by that wariior race (memory not what it use to be). The head guy played by David Warner.
There are THREE LIGHTS!
classic...
Gads, there are too many....
Oh, "Starship Mine" was a good Die HArd in space...

That was a great episode! I can't remember the title right now, but I'll look tonight and post it. The warrior race was the Cardassians.

Cardassians!...
thanks.
(yah, the story goes that it was suppose to be only one episode -- if you recall it was a 2-parter with the torture episode being part 2 --- and they were not happy with the scripts for the season. So with the suggestion of Stewart making a two part episode with the torture stuff, they ditched a lesser script for that season and saved money by using the torture set for a second episode and got great performances from Warner and Stewart... so the story goes....)
Oh, and although not a big Riker fan, I did like the episode where he is doing a play about an man in an asylum, only to find out that he may actually be going crazy. Good mind-fk episode.

If I tried talking like the Darmok episode at work it would soon be,
"Usivius, when the walls fell."

Actually, Av - that was the DS9 crew. That episode is called "Trials and Tribblations" and is often voted best DS9 episode. It's alot of fun to watch, isn't it?
