Amazon.co.uk Review
The seventh and final season of Star Trek: The Next Generation will always remain a curiosity in TV SF history. Despite the end being definite, despite Deep Space Nine taking over, despite knowing there'd be a movie six months after the series' end, and despite Babylon 5 starting that year with its pre-determined story arc, there is nothing here to suggest things were coming to a close.

Wesley finally gets dispatched ("Journey's End"), but everyone was waiting for that anyway. Some continuity was attempted, such as a sequel to Season 1's "The Battle" ("Bloodlines"), Alexander following the Klingon soap saga through ("Firstborn"), the Maquis and the Cardassians being mentioned several times and final instalments being provided for Lwaxana Troi, Barclay, Lore, Guinan and Ro Laren. None of this brings any form of resolution, however.

The one-off storylines seem to throw out ideas that beg for development. "Force of Nature" suggests frequent high-warp travel is damaging the very fabric of space-time. "Parallels" has Worf experiencing multiple realities including one where The Borg won at Wolf 359. "Lower Decks" finally introduces some secondary crew from the more than a thousand supposedly supporting Picard and co. There are even hints at some romance at long last between Dr Crusher and Picard as well as Worf and Troi.

In the long run, even after terrific guest spots from Trek alumni Armin Shimerman and Robin Curtis, or from Paul Sorvino and Kirsten Dunst, there's one thing for which the final year is remembered: "All Good Things..." is a near-perfect denouement for the show. With terrific production values and FX, not to mention standout performances from all concerned, it was an amazing surprise to have Q suggest there'd been a story arc right from the get-go. If only this final script had been fully conceived earlier on, The Next Generation might not have been overshadowed by the glut of TV SF that followed in its wake. --Paul Tonks

4.0 out of 5 stars Strong end to the evolution, 2 Jun 2004
With Star Trek traditionally being about 'boldly going where no-one has gone before', the final season rarely travels to 'strange new worlds', and instead the exploration turns inwards, searching the characters themselves. Comparing the final instalment, to the first season, the evolution of the show is obvious, the show started with a group of random people on a big ship, searching the galaxy, and ended with a group of friends, who have been through a lot together, exorcised some of their demons, and learnt a lot about themselves.

The happy endings, which were all the rage earlier in the show, are replaced by some darker episodes, ending with sometimes unresolved or only partially resolved conflicts.

Rather than tie-up the loose ends before the season finale, the show leaves us with even more questions; will Picard and Dr. Crusher ever get together, what happens to Wesley (though not everyone may want to know!!) and what happens to Ro Laren after she joins the Marquis... (admittedly, one or two of these questions are answered later in films and other series)

The final episode brings it all together, the last episode can sometimes be an anti-climax, but this one was a brilliant final legacy to the show, and gave some sense of completeness.

Recommended episodes:

Most have their merits, but watch out for: 'Descent', 'The Gambit', 'Parallels', 'The Pegasus', 'Lower Decks' and 'All Good Things...'

The DVD is well packed as usual, though after seven seasons worth of extras, some of the documentaries and interviews can get a little tedious. Still, it's nice to see that Paramount continued the effort to include loads of extras right to the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing viewing, 16 Jan 2004
By D. KNIGHTS "SwinginDave" (Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This series is one of the best in the Star Trek franchise. It has tension, suspense, and ties the loose ends of wat has been an institution.
The box set is fully equiped to present the remarkable material - with excellent extra features, including some moving interviews with the cast and interesting insights into the making of the episodes. The quality of viewing is superb, and this only compliments the sheer brilliance of this season. A fitting end to what has been a gripping story!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Final send-off, 26 Dec 2002
By Admir (Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina) - See all my reviews
It's a great show.

It really was worth watching all seven years. And now we've slowly come to an end and it is really sad to part from the weekly adventures of the bold crew that was on USS Enterprise 1701-D.

I admit, it is fiction, but it is hell of a ride through scientific fiction. It was educational, emotional, overwhelming. And as Spock would say, fascinating.

All Good Thigs [must end] was, ironically, the episode title for the final two-parter which featured everything that fans wanted combined in an episode. Excellent writing, which earned several awards, gave Q a role that actually set continuity in the whole series and Q was the one that had the honors to engage the stories and to end them in style, as he did in "All Good Things".

Season 7 isn't the best what TNG had to offer but it had somewhat weird stories dealing with the inner parts of the charachters. The DVD box-set is, as usual, packed with standard stuff, such as the:

Mission Overview: Year Seven
which takes us over the most memorable missions of this season.

A Captain's Tribute
a real gem with Patrick Stewart where he talks about the experiences with the cast and crew over the past seven years.

Departmental Briefing: Production
of an episode directed by Gates McFadden and Brannon Braga bragging about how well he writes episodes:).

Starfleet Memories and Moments
it was the best of the times, it was the worst of times. All the fun and magic captured on the set.

The Making of "All Good Things..."
The title says it all. This episode will really knock you out with quality!

It was a wonderful ride. Farewell and don't forget to live long and prosper!
