A gripping season.......2007-01-02

I recieved this season for christmas. I have not been disappointed with it. The storylines are incredible and complicated. Sometimes, you wonder how things can return to normal.

It is compulsive viewing. The picture quality is higher on this series than in any of the previous ones. This is the first series when computer animation is heavily used and it has been sucsessful.

This series really makes you want to buy the next series so watch it or you'll end up with all 7 series. Compulsive viewing and highly recommended.

This Season is has a strong theme of Romulan vs. Klingons and The Federation in almost every 2-3 episodes. It's a subtle but effective build-up to the Redemption at the end of the Season. My favourite episodes are "Data's Day", "In Theory", "The Loss", "First Contact" and "Reunion". Most of the episodes in Season Four touches on family, friendship and romantic relationships and we get to see Data really trying to understand and imitate human emotions, behaviours and relationships - it makes me realise how complicated it is to be a human and also at the same time just how special we are to have all the capabilities we do have. In this Season we also see Troi becoming just 'human' for a while which is a bit different to other episodes. Worf suffers personal tragedy but at the same time meeting his son for the first time. Geordi has his scary moments and Reiker gets chased around in hospital after the citizens on a developing planet sees him as a dangerous alien! Picard gets dragged into ancient Klingon rituals and has tormented again buy Q and Vash - the usual fun ensues, and accentuates with appearances by Guinan, Lwaxana, The Traveller, Wesley, Keiko & O'Brien (they get married in the Season).

Amazon.co.uk Review

Season 4 of Star Trek: The Next Generation seemed like the year of the family. After quickly resolving the breathtaking cliffhanger of "The Best of Both Worlds", the show took pains to show some of what the Federation was fighting for. We meet Picard's brother, Data's father, Tasha's sister and Worf's adoptive human parents, plus an old flame with a surprise son in tow. The Klingon heritage sub-plot that begins here and builds to the cliffhanger finale ("Redemption") would continue to the show's end and through into Worf' reappearance in Deep Space Nine.

The year also explored the implications of Data, Lwaxana Troi, Geordi and Dr Crusher being in love, while Miles O'Brien (given a first name at last) married Keiko. There were old friends revisited: the ubiquitous Q in a hilarious Robin Hood romp ("Qpid"), perennial screw-up Reg Barclay ("Nth Degree") and even the mysterious Traveller from Season One's "Where No One Has Gone Before" (played by the actor who was nearly cast as Data). There were new races introduced who would have an important bearing on Trek's destiny: the Cardassians and the Trill. Most of all, though, there were the one-off stories that impressed: "Clues", with its memory-loss mystery; "Night Terrors", with some genuine frights; and "Identity Crisis", with possibly the only time Trek technology really helped Geordi solve a puzzle. Then right at the end, reinforcing the year's familial theme, Denise Crosby returned as her own half-Romulan daughter. --Paul Tonks

A great season.......2007-09-27

Season four of The Next Generation continues the improvement shown in season three and includes some great episodes. This season sees the introduction of the Trill (although with a different look to the one shown in Deep Space Nine), political change in the Klingon Empire and Wesley Crusher leaves for Star Fleet Academy. My favourite episodes of this season are those involving the Klingons, namely `Reunion', `The Mind's Eye' and `Redemption' but there are many other episodes of note such as `The nth Degree' and `The Drumhead'. There are a few rather poor episodes this season but not as many as in previous seasons, `Remember Me' and `In Theory' being the worst. Overall this season is great but still not as good as it could be and The Next Generation only improves from here.

Superb - a bargain.......2006-07-28

For any Trekkies, this is a must buy - all the platitudes in the world could not adequately describe how good this series is. And for the price it is well worth it.

It is an absolute bargain.

Star Trek The Next Generation - SEASON 4.......2006-04-21

Star Trek The Next Generation Season 4 was a great season, we kick off with the really good episode The Best Of Both Worlds, Part 2, in which the borg use picard to assimilate earth, then we have brothers where data meet's his farther, and we meet lore for the second time, then there is Q-pid, in which we get to see some humour, and of course ... The return of Q, and there is the episode In theroy, where Data falls in love, Lol and finale we have the episode Redemption, Part 1, which is the season finale, All in all a great if not brilliant season.

The adventure continues.......2005-03-23

This is one action packed season from start to finish as we see the conclusion to last seasons borg invasion cliffhanger the best of both worlds to the Klingon civil war cliffhanger Redemption i really enjoyed this season my best episode has to be Qpid in which Picards love interest from last seasons Captains Holiday Vash visits the ship and Q takes her and the whole senior staff to Sherwood forest as robin hood and his merry men with Vash as maid marion of course one of the other greats of this season was Future imperfect in which Riker ends up on the enterprise sixteen years in the future where he is Captain. great season and a good continuation to a great classic.
