Star Trek The Next Generation: Season 3

Personal favorite episodes:

Evolution, The Bonding, Booby Trap, The Enemy, The Defector, Deja Q, A Matter Of Perspective, Yesterday's Enterprise, The Offspring, Sins of the Father, Sarek, and The Best of Both Worlds

Otherwise this was an excellent season. The characters have become the crew of the enterprise that I will always think of them as. The actors seem to have grown into their characters and all that needs to be done with them now is to have the characters evolve. There is a lot of excitement this season too. Here are a few plots...Geordi falls in love with a holographic Dr. Brahms while trying to save the Enterprise, Data gets to have an away mission by himself, Deanna's mother, Lwaxana, returns for a visit only to be kidnapped with Deanna by the Ferengi. Data creates himself a daughter in "The Offspring". I am very excited to get this season on DVD. Especially with the season finale where we get to see the return of The Borg and our first glimpse at Locutus of Borg. I think this season is a must for any fan, besides to steal a phrase...RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.
