Critic Reviews for Star Trek: The Next Generation: Season 1
All Critics (12) | Top Critics (6) | Fresh (9) | Rotten (3)
It's probably the best pure cast in terms of acting talent that any entry in the series has ever had.
Like a lot of Part Ones, this first season did a lot of unglamorous grunt work for the benefit of later entries.
It's hard to say if it's entertaining or entertainingly bad, but either way it IS entertaining.
Despite the season's high points, there are some real stinkers here.
But, for all of its silliness, the first season succeeded where it needed to: It introduced viewers to the characters who would carry the torch through six more seasons, the new crew of the Starship Enterprise.
The show has aged well, especially with this new restoration driving the visuals and bringing new details to life (more on that below). And even some of the bad episodes have their charm.
Audience Reviews for Star Trek: The Next Generation: Season 1
Star Trek returns to television with a new look and a new cast in Star Trek: The Next Generation. Set nearly 80-years after the original series, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-D continue the mission "to seek out new life and new civilizations." But unlike the original, the cast is more of an ensemble and more diverse. Yet, the show tries pretty hard to be the old Star Trek and ends up being a little too campy. Still, there are some standout episodes such as "The Big Goodbye" and "Datalore." Additionally, the series' visual style includes some interesting set designs and alien makeup effects. Though it's off to a bit of a weak start, Season 1 of Star Trek: The Next Generation shows promise.
