Without igniting a Trek V’s Wars debate, Star Trek The Next Generation was a great Science Fiction series in a day when there was no SF on television. Its easy to forget in ‘genre’ saturated times how little Sci Fi was actually on TV during the mid 80’s to early 90’s. I may be wrong but it may have been the only Sci Fi show on TV for a couple of years of the 80’s. Although STNG seem dated and too politically correct now, at the time it was a provoking science fiction show when there was none. Star Wars on the other hand has never attempted to be classed as Sci Fi, but would no doubt be labelled as that anyway.
