[QUOTE]Originally posted by Starship Millennium: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Middy Seafort: Riker never got his command. Troi never moved beyond her psycho-babble. And Data was not one step closer to being human.[/QUOTE]For Riker, see "The Icarus Factor," "The Best of Both Worlds," "Second Chances," and "The Pegasus." For Troi, "Disaster," "Face of the Enemy," and "Thine Own Self." For Data, there are too many to mention, but "The Measure of a Man," "The Offspring," "Brothers," "Legacy," and "The Quality of Life" stick out the most. All those episodes show significant growth for the characters in question, moving them beyond their first season characterizations. I could cite similar milestones for Picard, Beverly, and Worf, and to a lesser extent, Geordi, Tasha, Wesley, and O'Brien. [QUOTE]B5 provides that since it was the first of the new breed of SF-TV that challanged Trek's hold of the airwaves.[/QUOTE]It did? In my market, TNG and B5 were on the same channel... B5 was juggled around frequently, while TNG kept the same prime-time spot it had since it premiered. [QUOTE]Too bad, many of the TNG episodes you could just juggle the characters around, put in Riker instead of Geordi, and it wouldn't have changed the course of the story one iota.[/QUOTE]This is true, but it still doesn't change the fact that most of the stories were unique and creative. The fact that they could work for almost any type of character makes them that much more appealing, IMO. [/QB][/QUOTE]
