Product Description

From Amazon.com

To the delight of Star Trek fans everywhere, the stellar second season of The Next Generation (1988-89) belonged to Lieutenant Commander Data. As the Enterprise-D's resident android, Data (in the Emmy-worthy hands of Brent Spiner) would gain legal sentience in the season highlight "The Measure of a Man," and his increasingly "human" personality would refine itself in such diverse episodes as "Elementary, Dear Data" (Data as Sherlock Holmes), "The Outrageous Okona" (a misfire, but worthy from the Data perspective), and "Pen Pals." While Gates McFadden (Dr. Crusher) took a sabbatical of then-unknown duration (gracefully replaced by original Trek guest star Diana Muldaur as Dr. Pulaski), the remaining bridge crew would match Data's vitality: Riker grew a handsome beard and proved his command potential; Worf became richly nuanced in "The Icarus Factor," and met his match (and mate) in guest Suzie Plakson's fiercely Klingon sexpot K'Ehleyr; Wesley matured admirably, despite continuing fan disapproval; Betazed culture emerged as Troi locked horns with her eccentric mother, Lwaxana (Majel Barrett, in a recurring role); and La Forge made good on his promotion to chief engineer while Chief O'Brien (Colm Meaney) flawlessly rode on Geordi's coattails.

In a crucial series development, Guinan (special guest Whoopi Goldberg) revealed a connection to Q in her helpful capacity as Ten-Forward's enigmatic host, while Q himself (John DeLancie) precipitated the Enterprise's first, fateful encounter with the Borg (in the suspenseful "Q Who?"). Through it all, Patrick Stewart brilliantly intensified all of Picard's renaissance qualities (especially in the dazzling "Time Squared"), exploring the captain's facets with equal measures of curiosity, fascination, amusement, courage, and philosophical insight. Despite its lame finale with the money-saving clip-show "Shades of Gray," season 2 charted a warp-nine course to the even better season 3. --Jeff Shannon

Additional Features

The sixth DVD in this collectible box includes the same basic features as all of the TNG season sets, but with several tantalizing variables. Sure to be a fan favorite is a tour of the ever-growing Star Trek archives, graciously hosted by Paramount's Trek archivist, Penny Juday, with some incredible anecdotes about the history and fate of countless props, miniatures, and set dressings. Season overviews are provided from cast and crew perspectives, with a nod to such surprising guest stars as John Tesh and Mick Fleetwood. The general impression left by these enjoyable featurettes is that TNG's entire cast and crew had returned with enthusiasm following their highly rated first season, and that season 2 had made significant and grandly entertaining steps toward fulfilling the series' burgeoning potential. --Jeff Shannon

5.0 out of 5 stars Building on the First Season, but with an unfortunate end..., April 19 2004

By	Avid Music and DVD Fan (Boulder, CO USA) - See all my reviews

The First Season of Star Trek: The Next Generation gave the show a firm foundation and a good block to build upon. We saw a new Doctor in Kate Pulaski and it picked up right where the First Season left off. Geordi LaForge has been promoted and is now serving as the Chief Engineer, Data's qualifications for being a lifeform are questioned, and argueably the best villain in Star Trek is introduced. Unfortunately, there are 22 episodes in this season instead of the normal 26 episodes due to a Writers' Guild strike, however, the season finishes strong and gives another block for the upcoming savior of Star Trek third season. Though short, Season Two is a great season in this show.

Personal Favorite Episodes,

Where Silence Has Lease, Elementary, Dear Data, The Outragous Okona, Loud as a Whisper, The Measure of a Man, Contagion, The Royale, Time Squared, Q Who?, The Emissary, Peak Performance

3.0 out of 5 stars sort of an uneven season, Jun 14 2003

By	C. S. Stockwell "math person" (Portland, Oregon United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm a big trekkie, but I'll have to say that this is probably one of the weaker seasons. The short season had to do with the writer strike, which is fine. But because of this by the end of the season it ended on a very weak episode which was mostly footage from past shows. This is the one that most people complain about. But I also couldn't quite see the point of The Royale. I mean, it didn't didn't really give us a better understanding of the ship or the people, not exacly. I've also heard about people not liking Dr. Pulaski. That's too bad. Diana Muldaur actually does a good job, but I guess she just never really meshed too well with the crew. She reminds me of the crusty Bones though, whom I liked very much. (Just wish she wouldn't have picked on Data just because he's an android. Maybe that's why people didn't like her. I mean, Data is quite the popular android, no?) I've bought all the boxed sets because, well, I'm a trekkie, and I wanted a complete collection, but I'd have been much happier if Paramount had not charged so much for this season at least, especially since it has less content. OK, I'd have been happier if they charged less for all the sets in general :-) , but in particular this one. Heck, if Stargate SG 1 is only half the price..... Ya know what I mean? I think it was just following the trend set by X-Files or something. Sigh.
But at least by the second season everyone is more established, so things have settled down a bit. Q is always good.

3.0 out of 5 stars A weak season, but not too bad..., Feb 6 2003

By	L. Varnau "nerff20" (Indy) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

"Star Trek: The Next Generation's" second season begins with Riker's new beard, Geordi's promotion, a new (but not better) doctor, and Wesley the weasel deciding to stay aboard. Sounds like a mixed bag to me. The season premiere "The Child" doesn't have much in the way of excitement, and Marina Sirtis wasn't quite as good yet to carry the episode, but it looks great with some neat looking exterior shots and an introduction of Whoopi Goldberg as Guinan the bartender. The from there the season continued with a few gems ("Elementary Dear Data," "Q Who?") and a few more missteps ("The Outrageous Okona," "Pen Pals," "Shades of Gray).

We meet the Borg in a great episode with Q, played by the always-dependable John DeLancie, Data butts heads with a holodek version of Moriarty, Riker finally comes to terms with his father, and Wesley is given his first command. With a writer's strike hindering the production of the episodes, many of them feel rushed. A few potentially cool ideas like "Contagion" and "Peak Performance" feel lacking in suspense or direction.

Ah, but the cast is perfect and carries out each episode wonderfully. Even the terrible stock-footage show "Shades of Gray" is handled well by the cast. However, the season lacks two major characters from season one: Tasha Yar and Dr. Crusher. While Yar can't come back (she died late in season one), the good doctor does return in season three and she's welcome. Diana Mulduar is a talented actress, but Dr. Pulaski just isn't compatable with the other characters.

My recommendation is to get season two only if you're trying to collect them all. It's not the perfect season and there's much better ones out there.
