I grew up watching TNG, mostly because my dad watched it all the time! I haven't watched any of this in years, but this brought back some good memories. And that speech from Jean-Luc Picard is awesome.

No one gives a speech like Jean-Luc! Must be all that Royal Shakespeare Co training lol.

No Andorians for James T.! I like to think of it that passage as part of his online dating profile.

Love this! I've never been to a con, but I'm a big Star Trek fan. I was actually reading something the other day about how Odo on DS9 basically gets be a full-time detective, largely because the show *isn't* on a ship. I'll see if I can track it down. Great post, as always!

Thank you so much for reading, and for this link! I can't believe I didn't mention Odo! Lwaxana Troi calling him "the thin beige line" is one of my favorite lines lol.
