Editorial Review:
Star Trek: The Next Generation's third year was an important development in syndicated television. After two shaky years, Paramount nonetheless decided the franchise still had plenty to do. Their confidence was bolstered by two significant factors. First, cast uncertainties were finally settled: Gates McFadden (Dr. Crusher) was back for good; Denise Crosby (Tasha Yar) regretted her first-year departure, and so contrived a return in the Emmy Award-winning "Yesterday's Enterprise"; and Whoopi Goldberg happily continued her actor's-scale contributions.
Second, after the show had survived the previous year's writers' strike, new writing blood revitalized both characters and ideas: Data experienced fatherhood ("The Offspring"), Worf's Klingon heritage kick-started a huge story arc ("Sins of the Father"), and Picard got a saucy vacation ("Captain's Holiday"). There were memorable star cameos: John de Lancie played more mischief alongside Corbin Bernsen ("Déjà Q"); Dwight Schultz played truant in a gentle warning about addiction ("Hollow Pursuits"); and pleasing fans even more was Mark Lenard as Spock's dad ("Sarek"). The strongest evidence that TNG would continue for some time was the trend-setting cliffhanger finale. Fans and critics still agree that "The Best of Both Worlds" (properly introducing the Borg) was one of the greatest tricks ever pulled on TV to make audiences come back for more. --Paul Tonks

Rating:  - One of the best TNG seasons...#3.
This is the 3rd season of the TV hit series Star Trek: the Next Generation. This is probably one of the best seasons, with memorable and epic episodes like "The most toys", which deals with Data's kidnapping by an one-of-a-kind rare item collector, "Who watches the watchers" in which Picard needs to prove to a primitive people that he is not a god, "offspring", with Data becoming a parent, "Yesterdays enterprise", to finally meet the crew of the Enterprise-C, "The Defector" a splendidly sneaky Romulan ...

Rating: - Next Gen Really Hits Its Stride See it in HD
There are several compelling reasons to purchase this set:
This is by far the best of several great NG seasons; writing is crisp, the dialog is visceral, the tempo is great, and the shows are generally as good or better than you will find in earlier or later years.
The characters' development is proceeding on all fronts, human, Klingon, and crew-wise. The production, writing, and directing is nearing its peak.
But, as important as any of these are, don't forget ... Read More
Rating: - Star Trek TNG review; Season 3
I was a big fan of Star Trek TNG from the very first episode of the first season in 9/87. In fact, I video-taped every episode of TNG up until i lost my job in 1991 and shortly after, couldn't pay for cable-tv. Without cable-tv, I missed the final season, but managed to catch it later in the reruns. For the first half of the 90s, I actually had every episode of TNG recorded on video-tape, with most of the commercials removed. It was all in perfect order, except for the final season, which was randomly placed ... Read More

Rating:  - TNG hits its stride
This is where TNG really started to pick up and become the classic series we remember. Excellent episodes such as Yesterday's Enterprise, The Offspring, Sins of the Father, and more are found here. There's even a visit from Sarek, Spock's father from the original series. Plus the greatest cliffhanger ending of all time!
