In the director's cut all the Klingons have massive, gnarly, combat erections.
I was not expecting that image reading this thread, yet somehow it could fit the darker realism that they seem to be going for.

I've actually warmed to this series as it's gone on. I like the whole below decks thing - it's taken the narrative out of the boardroom and onto the shop floor.

The startling thing about that is that it's so startling. We need more of that stark honesty about the reality of life. Alas, if I remember correctly Troi wasn't her usual self in that scene.

The first season of TNG is shockingly bad, but seasons 3-5 has some of the best sci-fi ever put on screen.
I'm with you there. They tried to get away from cowboys and Indians in space and within the confines of a mainstream popular show dealt with some thought provoking issues.
Well it has turned to shit. Watched them all so far and the last 'theme' with parallel universes etc. with the good guys having to pretend to be mean - has been really badly done.
Above all that horrible generic adventure style long string chords music is lazy and downright bad.
I watched half of the first episode and it looked shit, so I stopped watching.
