Season 2: Episode 22, 'Shades of Gray' Almost definitely the least favorite episode of Next Generation aficionados, 'Shades of Gray' commits a cardinal sin for any television program: It's essentially a clip episode. Teenage wunderkind Wesley Crusher accidentally breaks the rules of an alien planet by crushing flowers and launches a diplomatic incident. Season 1: Episode 8, 'Justice' If ever there was an episode to make you convinced that the addition of a teenage Wil Wheaton to the cast was not the wisest of moves, this might be the one. Quite how nobody involved in this production realized they were making an episode wherein an all-black alien planet was depicted as tribal savages is baffling, but if only they had. Season 1: Episode 3, 'Code of Honor' There's probably some way to describe this episode without using the phrase 'a surprisingly racist piece of trash,' but we're not going to waste time looking for it. That said, if you're determined to watch as much of the show as possible, here are some episodes that you really will want to avoid. Things improve in the second year, but the show doesn't really hit a sustained run of good stuff until Season 3. The easiest, and shortest, way of putting this is 'just avoid the first season altogether, and prepare to have a bumpy ride through the second, as well.' The first year of The Next Generation is almost legendarily uneven, with more poor episodes than great ones, and some downright terrible ones thrown in for good measure. Get ready to rock your very own 'Shut up, Wesley' jokes-here's WIRED's binge-watching guide for Star Trek: The Next Generation. Commander Geordi La Forge (LeVar Burton), and-yes-even Wesley Crusher (Wil Wheaton), now is the time to get familiar. If you're one of those folks whose never experienced the joys of Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), Commander William T. generation out there that's never really spent time watching what happens Next. Now that the new Captain Kirk, Bones, and Spock are exciting audiences on the big screen, new fans might be going back and discovering the original Star Trek, but do they know there's so much more beyond that? It's possible there's an entire. Abrams relaunch of the franchise, however, the future of Next Generation has been consigned to limbo to some extent.

Apparently, a lot can change in two decades: When Star Trek: The Next Generation debuted in 1987, it launched not only a series that would last for seven glorious seasons, but an era of television dominance for the franchise that would stretch out for decades to come. If the original Star Trek proved that space was the final frontier, it also suggested that maybe it was a frontier too far for mainstream American television.
