Product Description

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Season Two travels warp speed into the next realm of adventure. Under the leadership of Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), the Enterprise faces a season of new changes and big challenges. With Dr. Crusher on sabbatical, Chief Medical Officer Katherine Pulaski (Diana Muldaur) fills in. And Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) arrives as 10 Forward’s wise El-Aurian bartender. This voyage explores watershed moments, including Riker (Jonathan Frakes) experiencing the Klingon culture, Data (Brent Spiner) defending his humanity and the introduction of the Borg, a species of terrifying cybernetic conquerors threatening the fate of intelligent life. Presented for the first time on Blu-ray in 1080p high definition and digitally remastered 7.1 sound, this mission is not to be missed.

Something many people thought was impossible, a new Star Trek series could survive in syndication. The question from there was whether the second season of voyages of the USS Enterprise and her crew could eclipse the success of the first season.Season one of TNG was unevenly written due to a revolving door of writers and the second season is even more uneven because of the 1988 Writers Guild of America strike. That strike led to scripts from the abandoned Star Trek: Phase II to be rewritten for the TNG characters and also led to Star Trek's one and only clip show. The ratio of good to bad episodes leans more towards the bad than season one which makes working through the season more of an arduous journey than some fare weather fans may be willing to invest in.Even with the higher amount of `bad' episodes the character development in season two is much improved. The entire cast is given more breathing room; Picard is less stiff, Riker and Worf were injected with more humor, Wil Wheaton is less annoying, Marina Sirtis becomes a little less crazy, and Levar Burton is given a more prominent position. Diana Muldaur replaced Gates McFadden as the Chief Medical Officer, something that would only last one season. The cast is more comfortable with one another and play off each other more naturally, something that would be expanded on more in season three.Season Two highlights include: Elementary, Dear Data, Loud as a Whisper, A Matter of Honor, The Measure of a Man, The Icarus Factor, Q Who?, and The EmissarySeason Two low points include (but are not limited to): The Child, The Outrageous Okona, The Royale, Pen Pals, Up the Long Ladder, and Shades of GreyVideo and audio quality are much improved over the original broadcasts, DVD releases, and what's being shown in current syndication. The series' original aspect ratio of 1:33.1 is maintained instead of trying to reformat the show for 16:9 HDTVs. Colors and clarity have been improved by re-scanning the original camera negatives into high definition and completely reassembling the episodes. The 7.1 DTS-MA audio track is encompassing. There's a good amount of ambient sound effects, phasers and torpedoes rip across the sound field, the warp engines provide an underlying hum while on board the ship, and the dialogue is always clear and centralized. Jerry Goldsmith's opening score sounds as timeless as ever, the same goes for the episode scores of Ron Jones.All the special effects including the model shots, matte paintings, early CGI, and effects done on video have been re-scanned or in cases where the effects could not be salvaged have been redone. All of this work was done in house by CBS for the first season; for season two some of the work was outsourced to another company. Unfortunately, that has lead to some of the effects shots not looking as great. Some planet flybys and effects involving the Enterprise look out of place when compared to the work done by CBS. Most of these shots are still an upgrade over the standard definition effects from the show's original run but it would have been nice to have these effects be consistent throughout the show. Hopefully this is something that will be corrected for TNG's third season.If getting a TNG restored in 1080P High Definition wasn't enough the Blu-ray sets also include some great special features. Episode promos are available before the start of every episode, I think this is a great touch because it gives you a great glimpse of what the show resembled before the restoration. LeVar Burtons 1988 Reading Rainbow segment from when he visits the set is included, I believe this is the first time it has been made available to the public outside of reruns or viewing it on YouTube. There's also a ten minute gag reel and audio commentaries available on The Measure of a Man and Q, Who?. The best special features are available on the final disc; Reunification: 25 Years After Star Trek: The Next Generation (1 hr, 2 min) and the two part documentary Make it So: Continuing Star Trek: The Next Generation, Part 1: Strange New Worlds (39 min) & Part 2: New Life and New Civilizations (42 min). There's some overlap between them but they offer an intriguing look look at the series from both behind and in front of the camera. Reunification offers viewers a rare look at TNG with the entire cast discussing the series together while Make it So looks more at individual issues or episodes. If you watch all three you're in for a treat and and it hardly feels like two plus hours have gone after watching them.Before wrapping up the special features section, two versions of the heralded episode The Measure of a Man are available. A 57 minute extended cut and a 55 minute `hybrid' cut that intermixes HD footage with SD footage. There's been a lot of talk about the extended cuts of this episode and while I think a lot of the footage is interesting some of it is a little too on the noise. I still prefer the broadcast cut of the episode over either extended version.Season two of Star Trek: The Next Generation should be an easy sell on Blu-ray for most fans but it's not without its problems. The cast and crew start to find their `sea' legs by this point but the writer's strike really hurt this season. There are some very memorable moments in season two; TNG's signature villain is established, Whoopi Goldberg joins, and Riker grows his iconic beard but there's also the clip show, an episode with Joe Piscapo, and the one where Data wears the cowboy hat just to name a few. This is not a season I'd revisit very often but the completist in me has to have it but I'd be lying if I didn't say I sorta wish I could have skipped straight to season three.

5.0 out of 5 stars Season 2 - Definitely Better
Reviewed in Canada on April 16, 2023
Season 2 continues to amaze the fans. This is the season that cemented me as a fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation. The characters and storylines by now have been well developed after the show’s introduction in Season 1. This is the season were Guinan (recurring character) (Whoopi Goldberg) and Dr. Pulaski(only season) appear on the show for the first time. As in Season 1, the blu-ray set does not disappoint.
