    When I was a boy, my family was ultra poor. We lived in a shack on the Washington coast near Forks. We had an old black and white TV that rarely got more then 2 stations. Both from Canada. They would alternate times for Star Trek NG. So I could watch a few hours of NG. But sometimes the order would be off and sometimes they would show one episode on one station and then I would turn to the next and it would be the same episode.

    I didn’t even care. It was like heaven to be able to escape the hell I was living through. NG will always be something very special to me for helping me get through that part of my life

      I hope its not just my opinion but nobody deserves to be this poor for any reason.

        Nope but we all deserve TWO scoops of TNG.

        Even if that means there’s a non-zero chance Lwaxana Troi shows up twice in one night…

          Lwaxana, my love. If only the world had a heart as gold as her’s.
