## Description

Season Three of STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION took televised science fiction storytelling to new heights. Now, on high definition Blu-ray, the seminal season of this beloved series is more spectacular and compelling to watch than ever.

Review: Is it the Best Season of STTNG? Maybe or Maybe Not, But That's Not the Point ... - As I have mentioned in my previous reviews of the first and second series of STTNG on Blu-Ray, I feel somewhat reticent to repeat what has been endlessly stated (and often with such better eloquence) than what I can say, and there is virtually no aspect of the show that has not been endlessly discussed, dissected, and debated. My review here therefore will not serve to try and recover all this content, but focus primarily on the remastering aspect of the series for its release on Blu-Ray. In short, the show has never looked better. The rescanning from the original 35mm film stock of the series, coupled with the computer- and manually-based retouching of that rescan has resulted in a production that you would swear you had never seen before. I’ve commented on what I call the “80’s brown” that seemed to lightly layer across the entire series when it was broadcast for the first time on TV, and that, to me, in spite of the superlative effects of ILM and the obvious work put into the art and design of every aspect of the show, almost seemed to “date” the show right as it was broadcast. Sometimes, to me, the show screamed: “This is the 1980’s!” Well, that’s all gone now. The rescan and remastering is so good, so well executed, and so superbly crafted that the show looks like it could have been filmed just last week, as opposed to a quarter of a century ago. Uniforms jump out at you. Detail is everywhere. Blacks are deep and rich and colors pop from amongst them. Even equipment which, obviously the product of a 1980’s mindset trying to look futuristic actually do now look futuristic! And dare I repeat it: the resolution and detail is simply incredible. To watch this new release on Blu-Ray is to experience the show as never before, making it a completely new experience even for those who endlessly watched the reruns of the syndicated content in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Let’s just say this again: this is not just some slap-happy re-release on the next “fad” media: this is a complete renovation of the show’s appearance that is startlingly good. A number of fans point to Season Three as one of the best, if not the best, season of the entire run. I’m not sure I can say that with any certainty myself, as STTNG struck me as excellently done from beginning to end. But there is no doubt that this season has some truly amazing episodes in it. There are huge surprises in store for the watcher, and threats never before introduced at any point in the Star Trek franchise to date. There is a more relaxed use of comedy, too, and characters are further extended as both the actors and the production staff and the writers more fully understand and mold what each character represents within the show. It’s a great season, one that everyone on the show was proud to produce, and it is best enjoyed only if you have been able to watch the first two seasons in order first. The cost of these episodes, too, has come down, which makes the whole thing more feasible, and they go on sale sometimes, as well. And while I am relatively certain we are going to turn right around and see this content re-released with the 4000-line resolution technology recently introduced, this won’t be for many years, and, quite frankly, the reproduction quality is now so high that we might not want to see more resolution than what we have here. So, I can’t give this anything less than my highest recommendation. To watch it is to see it as though you never saw it before. There are some good bonus features, too, including lots of voice commentaries and so on, and these are great, but the real value is in the technical quality of the release, one that will be impossible to miss. Five stars.
Review: The best season of the lot? - The DVDs themselves are of good quality; I've rented many seasons' worth and reminded myself which stories throughout the run were good and which were not... $50 per season is on par and is a good price. (So what's coming soon that's compelling people to buy these current sets?) Wish I could afford it; thanks to the prices of necessities gone up so much (food, shelter, and distilled petroleum products being slightly more important than Captain Picard standing around as if he hasn't spent a penny in decades...), $50 is still an effective $100 out of my pocket in the end. Don't get me wrong, the entire series IS fun and seasons 3 and beyond have their appreciable values as well; but they are a change... Evolution: A terrific season opener that reintroduces Dr Crusher with aplomb. Wesley starting the problem is a big boost too. The Ensigns of Command: Another home-run with this entry of Picard having his hands full; fighting a stolid species of inflexible corporate bugs while finding means to persuade a bunch of colonists to vacate the planet that the inflexible corporate bugs claim ownership too. Very good story indeed! The Survivors: An oddball, but highly enjoyable and well cast. Especially if you've never been keen on Troi. Who Watches the Watchers: Badly dated and preachy, but it's got enough set pieces to remain worthy. The Bonding: I think, as with When the Bough Breaks, this one features kids on it as a result of a candy bar write-in contest... It's a bit soapy, and why the alien wants to cajole one little kid seems silly... Booby Trap: Shades of season 2, but this one is back on form with good ideas; especially with seeding an idea to be followed up next season. Though, in reality, the ship caught in the trap would not survive a thousand years... The Enemy: Utterly perfect, with one problem: No Vulcan, a race that is a blood-brother to the Romulans, has the blood type needed to save the captured Romulan - yet Worf, a Klingon - is the sole person who CAN save this Romulan?! Talk about shoehorning rubbish science into a scenario that's otherwise excellent, even with the silly uberdrama... Maybe he should donate some blood and have it transfused into a poodle and see if the poodle survives. That's what it boils down to. The Price: Even today, the romance subplot is heavyhanded, but the Ferengi get just desserts with their meddling. :D The Vengeance Factor: Well done story about blood feud. The Defector: I used to love this one, but rewatching it reveals the uberdrama petty soap opera it sadly is. It DOES have potential and a few surprise twists, but Picard taking all that time to instill excess drama into a situation that warrants fast response? At that point I'd be cheering for the opposing team!! The Hunted: A decent parallel to Vietnam vets; and hasn't dated much by today's standards either. The High Ground: Whew boy. This anti-terrorism story doesn't fit well today. It's too one-sided... Deja Q: Another Q episode. How can't it be good?! CLASSIC! Q becomes human and the interplay with the crew is classic. Especially when Guinan hears about the development... Picard saving Q's bacon by the end is to be expected, but well handled. A Matter of Perspective: Pity we didn't have that in the terrorism story. :rolleyes: This one is far worse for having it... best left forgotten. Yesterday's Enterprise: Classic. Nice to see Yar back. Also sets up a concept to be revived later on, which all things considered is brilliant. The Offspring: Remake of "The Measure of a Man" and the story, much like Lal, self-destructs because it's 100% derivative. Sins of the Father: Continues the Worf saga. Until season 6 then DS9, this saga is fun. Allegience: Preachy and predictable, but has some nice set pieces. Captain's Holiday: More Ferengi? A few nice set pieces and comedic moments, but naah... Tin Man: Another classic. Reuses some f/x from Star Trek The Motion Picture, but it's easy to relate to Tam and especially To the Tin Man entity. Hollow Pursuits: Unworthy of any spite accorded to it; and Dwight Schultz is inspired casting. great story on a man who isn't like the rest of us. Pity we don't get more background info on him, but it is highly underrated. The Most Toys: Another well-handled gem. The toy collector getting his just desserts in the end, too... Great Data-centric story. Sarek: A plot so good that it got reused in Deep Space 9... Sarek comes aboard and Picard mindmelds because Sarek is past his prime... also sets up for a later story too... Menage a Troi: garbage. Transfigurations: An anti-xenophobia story. A typical entry but has its momenets. Best of Both Worlds: A bit soapy at times, but there's no real reason to even begin to dislike it. The Borg never improved after this story (apart from a novel released in 1991 that isn't considered canon...)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Next Gen Really Hits Its Stride See it in HD
*by A***G on February 10, 2008*

There are several compelling reasons to purchase this set: This is by far the best of several great NG seasons; writing is crisp, the dialog is visceral, the tempo is great, and the shows are generally as good or better than you will find in earlier or later years. The characters' development is proceeding on all fronts, human, Klingon, and crew-wise. The production, writing, and directing is nearing its peak. But, as important as any of these are, don't forget ILM (div of LucasFilms) did the special effects. This is as high a quality of special effect as you will ever see in television. It is guaranteed with all the computer and CGI junk as there is now, you will not see better sci-fi action than this. MANY OF YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN THE ORIGINAL Next Gen SHOWS IN HI DEF. YOU MUST!! It is leaps and bounds better than other versions. Many of us trekkers are just now getting the high quality 1080i or 1080p high def televisions. You will not believe how much better the quality of Next Gen is until you see it on one of these hi def sets. Get one with HDMI and upcoding, and it will up-convert your standard def show like Next Gen DVD TO HDMI and 1080i or p. It is unbelievable!! As good as the VHS tapes were, as good as you can record Trek off TV nowdays, the factory stuff with the Dolby Surround encoding cannot be beat. Many movies do not have the quality of these Trek shows. Some of these shows had as much as 3 Million in special effects budgets- for 1987 that was a ton of money. Some blockbuster films did not have much more budget than a single trek show! So, add this new compelling element, top quality video, to the OTHER strengths of Season Three Next Gen and you have an all time winner. No collectors set of videos would be complete without Year 3, the Third Season, of Star Trek Next Gen. It is excellence personified. The stereo is near perfect, audio mixing is the best I ever heard (check out the subwoofer content in engineering scenes), surround is first class, the directing, writing, acting, and direction, cannot be beat for TV, and the special effects are as good as you will ever see. You can bet there will never be another Trek Next Gen. But if you have a high def television, you are in for a treat, as this is historic. The Pinnacle of television. This is the complete package for Sci Fi and Trek fans. You get the action, the effects, the cerebral, philosophical nature of Trek, and video that cannot be beat, 19 hours of it, for 62$. Mighty hard to beat. Gene, the Great Bird of the Galaxy, would be proud. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to some really classic trek and sci fi and at least get season three. If you are a trek fan, this one season is the least you can try out. Science Fiction simply does not get any better than this. Star Trek The Next Generation - The Complete Third Season
