Amazon.co.uk Review

As the sixth season of Star Trek: The Next Generation went into production, everyone knew that attentions would soon be permanently divided by the debut of Deep Space Nine. Sure enough, that meant crossovers ("Birthright"), guest stars, and references back and forth. The sense of baton-passing drew the TNG family closer, however. Directorial debuts begun in season 5 allowed for repeat group-huddle ownership of several shows. Jonathan Frakes bettered "The Quality of Life" by "The Chase," which finally offered an explanation why most races in the Trek universe are humanoid with knobbly foreheads. Patrick Stewart crowbarred a Western into the franchise in "A Fistful of Datas." LeVar Burton introduced the far more exciting Riker clone Thomas in "Second Chances." But here we still find an inability to follow through a good idea, since it was intended for the clone Tom to replace the real Will. Barclay outstayed his welcome with a lackluster "Ship in a Bottle" (despite a hammy cameo from Stephanie Beacham) after he'd injected creepiness into "Realm of Fear." The same happened with Q and the painfully weak "True Q" contrasted by the philosophically challenging "Tapestry," in which Picard faced the decisions of his youth.

Yet ultimately the year provided more memorable moments than either year 5 did or year 7 would. There was the fun of a pint-sized Starfleet in "Rascals," the shocking comment on political torture in "Chain of Command," the endless Matrix-like guessing game of reality in "Frame of Mind," and even a jokey genre nod often called "Die Hard Picard" instead of its official title, "Starship Mine." The two biggest attention-drawing moments came via stellar cameos. There was the bittersweet sight of James Doohan revisiting the original Enterprise bridge on "Relics," then a quick contribution by Stephen Hawking in the cliffhanger "Descent." Both were attempts at keeping TNG the connoisseur's Trek incarnation of choice. --Paul Tonks

5.0 out of 5 stars Very, very frightening..., 15 Jan 2008
By M. Jacobs "Mark Jacobs" (Harrow, Middlesex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There are plenty of cracking episodes on this set. The presentation is superb, with an LCARS type of menu system on the DVD (you feel like you're at an Enterprise console when choosing your episodes!), and a looped "engine sound" "docking bay" before you "engage" the episode :).

The episode that sticks in my mind most is the one entitled "Phantasms". The way the sense of insecurity builds throughout the episode makes it the most scary TNG I have seen. It also brings a whole new meaning to the concept of "Alien Abduction". Another superb treat is "Relics", which, again, unfolds piece by piece to present a superb "tapestry" of a story, detailing the origins of all life in this galaxy. Great stuff and heartily recommended for all Trekkies, especially at this price and quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Engage, 25 Jun 2009
There is nothing derogatory I can say about this series. Great acting, Great stories, great sets, This series reached the epitome of sci-fi television. Having established themselves over 5 years as a series, with the best producers and directors (and guest stars), this series is a milestone in sci-fi. Indeed, it was only until "Voyager" came along that "The New Generation" had a serious rival, in terms of story, acting and viewer involvement. Essential, not for "Trekkies", but for sci-fi fans.

4.0 out of 5 stars A solid season, 12 Jan 2009
By T. R. Alexander (East Anglia, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This penultimate season of Star Trek: The Next Generation builds on the previous great season with some nice and interesting episodes. I would say that this season of the show is roughly on a par with season five as although there are fewer truly great episodes this season, there is also a reduction in the number of terrible episodes as well.

This season sees very little changes to the show, with the only major change being that Counsellor Troi finally gets a proper Starfleet uniform. This season does rely more heavily on such Star Trek plot staples of Holodeck malfunctions and Q focused episodes than the previous season but it also has some really good episodes as well. `The Quality of Life', `Starship Mine' and `Rightful Heir' are some of my favourite episodes from this season alongside the two part episode `Chain of Command'. On the downside `Man of the People', `Rascals' and `A Fistful of Datas' are all quite bad. This season also sees a couple of nice cameos from other Star Trek shows with both Scotty and Doctor Bashir turning up.

This sixth season is definitely one pf the better Next Generation seasons and along with season five I feel this is when the show was at its height. Although the previous season has more truly outstanding episodes, even the bad episodes of season six tend to be better than the average episodes of the earlier seasons.
