And thus I come to an end with my TNG rewatch reviews, with a couple of Q episodes, appropriately enough, and a distinct pang in the heart. Curse it, now I'm missing the crew of the Enterprise D all over again. As Scotty says to Picard in Relics, it's like falling in love for the first time; not that you don't love again later, but that specific type of infatuation remains unique. And for me, it didn't happen with the original Enterprise gang, fond of them and their adventures as I am; it happened with the next Generation: they're what made me a fan for the very first time in my life, and I find I am still vulnerable to their charms.

(DS9 is different because with DS9, there is no nostalgia in the love as there never was a period of separation, and no defensiveness. It always bewilders me when I hear DS9 referred to as the red-headed stepchild of ST shows (surely that's Enterprise?), because I haven't met anyone who actually watched DS9 from beginning to end and didn't agree with me that of all the Star Treks, it's the best written, the pinnacle of Treks, its awesomeness beyond debate. Well, perhaps not some hardcore TOS only folk, but they usually haven't watched it, either. So DS9 and me, we're married. Wouldn't want to change that for the world. But TNG was my first love.)
