Fan Edits TNG Bloopers into the Original Episodes
Everyone loves a good blooper reel . For some folks, it’s the only special feature on a Blu-ray they ever even watch. And some of the most extensive bloopers for any series can be found on the Blu-ray box sets for Star Trek: The Next Generation . The TNG cast were infamous for goofing off on set and cracking each other up constantly, and there’s ton of evidence of that in their blooper reels for each season.
Now, thanks to the folks at TrekMovie , we’ve learned about one Trekker who has taken those extremely silly moments and edited them back into their proper episode. And the results are flat out hilarious. The YouTube channel Ryan’s Edits has done five of these videos so far, which he’s named StarTrekINtakes . The first one is from the season four episode “Future Imperfect,” and finds Geordi (LeVar Burton) and Worf (Michael Dorn) bro-ing out on the bridge in ways we are not normally used to. Think a 24th century Bill and Ted.

The next video makes it look as if Lt. Worf just revealed something pretty personal about his childhood. This one’s an edit from the season three episode “Booby Trap.”

From that very same episode, Whoopi Goldberg’s Guinan gets a lot less wise and sage-like, and a lot more potty-mouthed than we are used to. Do you kiss your mother with that mouth Miss Guinan??

This next one came from late in TNG’s seventh season, from the episode “Parallels.” Jonathan Frakes going a little nuts on one of the crew decks feels totally like “high school senior year days before graduation” style tomfoolery.

The last one posted (at least so far) is from the TNG series finale “All Good Things,” and it looks like Brent Spiner ( Lt. Commander Data ) was goofing off on set all the way though to the very last episode.
![star trek next generation bloopers season 1 Youtube Video](https://img.youtube.com/vi/a2QQzquP-3Y/sddefault.jpg)
There are a metric ton of TNG bloopers out there , so here’s hoping that Ryan’s Edits keeps bringing up more StarTrek INtakes . Because we could all use a good laugh these days more than ever.

Star Trek: The Next Generation Bloopers Are the Perfect Friday Mood

This week has lasted for approximately eighty-seven years! Luckily, I have the perfect remedy: a compilation video of Star Trek: The Next Generation ‘s cast flubbing lines, making jokes, and generally cracking up. I shall live vicariously and in harmony with this video.
YouTube algorithms must know me well, because while this video isn’t new (it’s from September), it was the first thing suggested to me on YouTube this morning, the last day of this infinite work week. Maybe it was the surreal seven hours of Michael Cohen’s congressional testimony on Wednesday that seemed to destabilize the space-time continuum and topple us into the Twilight Zone. Yet this compilation is so delightful it single-handedly made me forget, for an entire six minutes, that the President who is a criminal flew to Vietnam to buddy up with a ruthless dictator and then left empty-handed. Anyway, in space in the ’90s, they’re having fun.
I have to say, aside from the infectious hilarity of watching the actors mess up their lines or try mightily to keep a straight face, my favorite part of the bloopers is seeing some of the very real camaraderie amongst the cast. As they laugh together, hug each other, and just genuinely seem to enjoy being on-set, their closeness mirrors the chemistry of the Enterprise-D crew. It’s especially fun to watch them crack up in the midst of a grave speech or otherwise super-serious technobabble explanation.
The main culprits in blooperity here seem to be Brent Spiner (Data), Michael Dorn (Worf), and Jonathan Frakes (Riker). The best of all things is watching Sir Patrick Stewart make adorable, funny faces, far removed from the gravity of Picard. I know I’m not the only one who will watch this and emerge wanting to be Patrick Stewart’s best friend. I’m sure the days were often long and exhausting, but man, does this reel make it look like The Next Generation set was a fun place to work.

Star Trek Isn’t Supposed To Have Money: What Is Latinum?
I’m glad voyager’s tom and b’elanna are no longer star trek's only successful romance, star trek officially brands a surprising deep space nine hero as a war criminal.
Star Trek: The Next Generation is getting new life through Star Trek INtakes , a Youtube series that humanizes fan-favorite characters. TNG remains a beloved incarnation of Star Trek despite launching over thirty years ago, and recently its characters have been brought back into the spotlight via the new series Star Trek: Picard and Star Trek: Lower Decks . Complementing this, Star Trek INtakes is celebrating these same characters — as well as a few others — by combining originals scenes from Star Trek shows with outtakes.
Star Trek INtakes launched on Ryan's Edits' YouTube channel in March 2020 and includes 44 videos as of January 1, 2021. The term "INtakes" is short for "integrated outtakes," and each video is a clip from a Star Trek episode with a relevant outtake or blooper edited back in. While the vast majority of the videos are from Star Trek: The Next Generation , there are a few from Star Trek: Enterprise , as well, and at least one episode uses a clip from Star Trek: Voyager .
Related: Star Trek Theory: Worf Replaces Data In Picard Season 2's Story
An example of this is Star Trek INtakes #33, "Data Executes His Smalltalk Protocol," which is essentially an extended scene from the Star Trek: The Next Generation season 6 episode "Starship Mine," with Brent Spiner's (Data) outtakes blended back in, incorporating a reference to measuring Sheliak body temperature. While Data's scenes in much of that TNG episode were meant to be comical , the edited clip heightens the humor and implies a risqué cap to the conversation (though it is only implied) — which causes a genuine reaction from Gates McFadden (Beverly Crusher) and Jonathan Frakes (William T. Riker). It strips away the formality typical of the show, allowing for a moment of not just levity, but also a break in convention. As a result, the moment feels very human.
As Ryan's Edits (they prefer to be known by their channel name) explains on their page, "Sometimes bloopers, when edited back into the finished episodes, can add a bit of humanity to characters. Sometimes they just add a bit of absurdity. Both are good." The videos are short, designed for quick entertainment. The longest has a runtime of 1:39, but at least half clock in under a minute. Star Trek: The Next Generation episodes are used for the majority of the "INtakes," likely because TNG blooper reels are easily accessible on the internet; however, there are also episodes featuring Star Trek: Enterprise actors like Jeffrey Combs, who played Thy'lek Shran.
When asked about the inspiration for this series of videos, Ryan's Edits explained via email that they'd seen a Star Trek: The Next Generation blooper on Reddit and were inspired to post their first INtake, which was meant to be a one-off for fans. When the response to that video was favorable and people began reposting the videos, they chose to continue the series. What began as a lark in March 2020 has since grown into a continuing series of Star Trek fan offerings designed to amuse and entertain. Ryan's Edits plans to keep going as long as they have the time, and fans remain interested.

That's not the original blooper reel, but rather one that was created specifically for the Venice Film Festival. That opening narration was probably done either by the provider of the bloopers, or a member of the Film Festival staff.

Watch: Hilarious Videos Put Star Trek: The Next Generation Bloopers Back Into The Show
Last month, we reported on a hilarious new video series created by YouTuber Ryan’s Edits which found a whole new way to enjoy outtakes. The video editor took the funniest bloopers from Star Trek: The Next Generation and reintegrated them into their original scenes, creating bizarre out-of-character moments for the Enterprise-D crew. Since then, many more have been posted that Trek fans will definitely want to check out.
I’ve highlighted one of the best in the player above, for instance, which makes use of a blooper from season 3’s “A Matter of Perspective.” The actual scene is super-serious, as Cmmdr. Riker is accused of murder – but this “intake” version gives things a comedic spin as, when introducing Riker, Captain Picard can’t remember his own Number One’s name (thanks to Patrick Stewart having momentary memory loss when filming).
![star trek next generation bloopers season 1 star trek next generation bloopers season 1](https://wegotthiscovered.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Star-Trek-Picard-BTS-TNG-Reunion-1.jpg)
Along similar lines – proving that even great thespians like Stewart forget their lines now and then – another video uses footage from season 2’s “Unnatural Selection.” In this clip, Picard storms in to see O’Brien with an idea… only for it to leave his head upon entering, causing Data to heavily suggest it for him. And don’t miss the video titled “Riker and Picard are Relieved,” taken from season 5’s “Cost of Living,” in which the two officers get surprisingly cosy with each other.
These “intakes” are going down a hit with fans, with many calling for Ryan’s Edits to try and do these for other Trek shows, too, or maybe even other TV series in general. It’s definitely a fun, fresh way of approaching outtakes, so I wouldn’t be surprised if other creators took up this concept. But for now, enjoy watching Star Trek: The Next Generation in a very different light via the link below.

Exclusive Preview Of ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation Nerd Search: Bloopers of the Borg’ Puzzle Book
![star trek next generation bloopers season 1](https://trekmovie.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/eagle-tngbloopers-head-777x437.jpg)

Later this month, Hero Collector releases their second Star Trek puzzle book, following up last year’s fun exploration of TOS : Star Trek Nerd Search: Quibbles with Tribbles . This year, they take on TNG with Star Trek: The Next Generation Nerd Search: Bloopers of the Borg , and we have an exclusive preview of some of the book’s colorful puzzles.
Bloopers of the Borg
Hero Collector is again teaming up with acclaimed cartoonist and writer for Marvel and BBC Glenn Dakin for a puzzle book all about TNG. The full title for the puzzle book arriving on December 14 is Star Trek: The Next Generation Nerd Search: Bloopers of the Borg: The Mistakes Must Go – Make it So!
![star trek next generation bloopers season 1](https://trekmovie.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/eagle-nerd-tngbloopers-qpid-640x447.jpg)
From Bloopers of the Borg
Like with last year’s Quibbles with Tribbles , the new book challenges fans to do what they do best: nitpick. Specifically, each full-color illustration in the 44-page book depicts a classic TNG episode, each containing specific (deliberate) mistakes. The overall premise is that the Borg have created time-traveling Chaos Cubes that break down our reality as we know it. It’s up to readers to spot the cubes and save Captain Picard’s voyages.
![star trek next generation bloopers season 1](https://trekmovie.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/eagle-nerd-tngbloopers-biggoodbye-640x447.jpg)
Making it so, however, won’t be easy. Among the continuity errors caused by the Chaos Cubes are TNG characters in the wrong uniform, or in the incorrect scene… or even from an entirely different series. Complicating the crises, Dakin has hidden 10 random items for every season of TNG… in each scene. Can you find the rogue elements and name the episode, too? Upping the ante even further, next-level TNG fans must boldly look out for five Super Quibbles, which are behind-the-scenes bits of business that only the hardest of hardcore fans will uncover.
![star trek next generation bloopers season 1](https://trekmovie.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/eagle-nerd-tngbloopers-unification-640x446.jpg)
Among the TNG episodes revisited are “Encounter at Farpoint,” “The Best of Both Worlds,” and “The Big Goodbye.” And, yes, you can keep score, assimilating points for every right answer as you chase the magic number, 11001001, of course.
Star Trek: The Next Generation Nerd Search: Bloopers of the Borg arrives on Tuesday, December 14. You can pre-order it in hardcover now from Amazon for $14.95 .

All 10 TOS And TNG Star Trek Movies Returning To Paramount+ In July
Thanks! From your article directly to my preorders.
This artist (John Ross) has been a favorite of mine, and i’ve been lucky to have worked with him before. Great guy, and thrilled to see him take on my favorite franchise after years of Spider-Man and Doctor Who!
If only Unification would have been as dynamic and interesting as this great illustration.
Still one of the best episodes of TNG, and all of Trek. Brilliant stuff!
Most disappointing TNG ep of all time given all the hype. And Nimoy and Leonard not share any screen time was ridiculous. A missed opportunity for involving TOS cast. Only the “Bridge on the Captain” cluster-fuck death of Kirk in Generations was worse. Berman never figured how to handle TOS characters well.
And in all on the “Best Eps of TNG” lists I’ve seen published in Trek media over the years, never have I run across a Top 10 list that had Unification on it.
Plus, 90% of it is just plain boring to watch.
I don’t disagree it would’ve been nice to have Spock and Sarek together one last time, but it was never a big deal to me either. I actually liked how Picard shared the mind meld with Spock at the end to understand Sarek more. That was a touching (and very Star Trek) way for Spock to remember his father.
But you’re also right, I looked through a bunch of TNG top 10 lists and I didn’t find it on any either. I really love the episode but I would be lying if I said it was in my top 10 as well. ;)
With 172 episodes it’s no surprise it doesn’t make any top tens, but the second part is easily one of the show’s best (though maybe not top ten). But it’s message, the performances, the story, and the writing are top notch.
Frankly, the two parter is better than about half of TOS’ episodes, and most of the TOS cast movies. It’s absolutely in Spock’s top 10 episodes, whether a cranky fan agrees or not!
Yeah it doesn’t seem to land on any top 10 lists, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a very popular and well liked episode on its own either, just not as strong as the others that are on it.
In fact, out of curiosity I went and checked the audience rating for the episodes on IMDB and they are are quite high:
Unification I: 8.3/10 Unification II: 8.4/10
So yeah pretty impressive IMO. Most of the usual episodes that fall into Top 10 lists like Measure of a Man/BOBW, etc usually get around a 9 or above. So for both Unification episodes to be this high actually shows how well liked fans think of them. Now JUST for comparison sake, I looked at Discovery’s ‘sequel’ episode audience rating:
Unification III: 6.3/10
So it’s a good indication of how strong the first two episodes are, especially decades after the fact.. For the record I personally really liked Unification II and thought it did a good job of how it actually reunited the Vulcans and Romulans and said so here. But I remember for others it was a divisive episode so not surprised to see it with a much lower rating. I really liked it, but it’s not about individual taste in this instance.
Interesting stuff. I would note thought that the reviews of the TNG eps on IMDB are fan reviews that were predominately made many years later (IMDB was only started in 1990), versus Discovery reviews which are being made by a broad set of viewers sort of in “real time” in our current timeframe. So that is a bit of an apples-to-oranges and highly subjective comparison. So I question whether it’s reliable to compare these numbers?
Why not? Every episode gets very different ratings regardless. Episodes fans truly hate like Sub Rosa are waaaay down there where episodes people generally agree are great like Inner Light, BOBW, Q Who are naturally higher. And you can still vote on all those episodes for every Star Trek show today. Also remember these shows are being watched by newer fans as well and vote on the old shows like the new ones.
I will agree a little about Discovery though, it is voted in real time. But again, I don’t really think that matters since those episode ratings are all across the board too although most of them are in the middle to low category, ie 6-7 ratings. But a few have gone above 8 at least. But if more people were in love with it, it would simply have higher ratings now. But yes that can change in time too.
So I don’t it really matters.
Sure, I get your point, but like TG47 mentions in the thread, there are different fan “populations” voting, in addition to the timeframe issue I mentioned, so my personal opinion is that I think the comparison is dubious.
It’s not just a fan opinion, as many of the media reviews of this two parter reinforce my comment on how much of a missed opportunity this ep was. For example:
“I can’t help wondering, though, how much better this episode might have been if it had given more time to Spock, instead of losing him in a mess of double-crosses and political intrigue. Like, if maybe this had just been a single episode and if it had focused on Picard trying to bring Spock and Sarek back together.” — Zack Handlen, AV Club
“I must say, these plot mechanics are not at all worthy of this story — especially Sela’s lengthy dialogue that essentially explains to us and the characters the entire plot. (“And I would’ve gotten away with it too, if it hadn’t been for you meddling kids!”) By explaining the plot she masterminds her own defeat. (To quote Trek VI: “Since you’re all going to die anyway, why not tell you.”) The ensuing trickery allowing Picard, Spock, and Data to escape is even more telling of Sela’s incompetence; why aren’t they locked in a cell? It’s so unfortunate to see a story so ambitious implode so thoroughly and with such limited imagination. It’s also frustrating that a story of such political scope and significance ends up being, essentially, a Reset Button Plot. Picard and Data leave after Spock’s failed political movement, but Spock decides to stay and toil away for when future generations might be capable of swaying more forward-thinking minds. It’s an admirable notion (though, depressingly, by the time Star Trek XI rolls around, Spock will see just how well that has worked out), but I was hoping for something more status-quo-shaking in the here and now. Don’t get me wrong: On balance, this is a good and worthwhile effort. But in the end, I can’t escape a basic truth here, which is that I wanted to like “Unification” a lot more than I ultimately did.” – Jammers Reviews
Again, having Sarek and Spock in the same ep, but not having them share screen-time together, just brings to mind sort of a, “what in the hell were the writers thinking?” obvious response..
That all may be true, but the episodes themselves are still highly popular today! I think most fans just love seeing Spock and Picard together. My favorite scene is with Spock and Date.
The lack of reunion between Sarek Spock wasn’t the problem.
It’s more that it seemed to involve a great deal of build up to an anticlimax. I actually liked part one more than part two.
And to Tiger2, I don’t think that it’s fair to look at IMDb ratings on these things. We know that there is an entire generation of older fans who bring their biases and brigade the scoring. I may be from that generation but I don’t agree with the behaviour.
I hear you!
If you’re talking about Discovery, I sort of hear what you’re saying although I don’t think there are just a bunch of people downvoting everything in ‘nuTrek’ because the more popular episodes are ranked fairly high. And look at Lower Decks? That show share some of the highest rated episodes along with a lot of the old shows, especially their finales. Because most fans seem to just like it a lot more than Discovery (as do I but I also like Discovery too). So I get what you’re saying, but I don’t think it’s that black and white either only because the episodes most of us can agree on as really good actually are rated fairly highly on there for the new shows as well as the old.
And Unification III seemed to be divisive for some reason. I pointed it out how people felt about it here after it came out. I don’t think over the actual Vulcans and Romulans being united, but the usual Burnham issues fans have with her in that episode and I think why it’s lower rated. But I really liked it personally. It’s one of my favorites of last season.
But my main point was Unification I and II is pretty popular. I will definitely say at the time, people probably were more disappointed with it. I include myself in that. Like One Lion I remember feeling VERY bored lol. But I’ve come to really like them a lot now (and I’m just older). And I only use IMDB because it’s the only place I know where individual episodes are even rated.
But sure if he and others just think the episode sucks, then they suck! That’s totally valid to feel that way and the episodes certainly have elements to criticize. You know I never argue how people personally feel about any show/movie or episode;.
Yeah I really love the episode today! And I love that Discovery finally made Spock’s dream canon 800 years later!
Given how disappointing DSC has been, seeing clips from Unification when Burnham looked into her brother’s fate was both touching and nostalgic. One of the rare instances where fan service actually seemed appropriate.
Yeah DEFINITELY agree on that! DIS still is a disappointment in many ways on it’s own. But I do think it has done a decent job of honoring classic Trek here and there like the image of seeing Nimoy’s actual face from Unification as you mentioned or hearing Archer’s theme when they presented the new space dock in his name this season.
I admit I am a huge sucker for stuff like that lol. They really get those moments right and honors the classics and those characters in a nice way that fans can appreciate even if they still hate this show.
Yes, I love these connections they are trying to make to earlier Star Trek shows.
Regarding my comments on Unification, I am not saying it’s a bad episode, but I am saying that it could have been a hell of a lot better and that the writers just didn’t nail the huge “Nimoy on TNG” opportunity like they might have done.
OK fair enough!
The artwork is fantastic. Not sure how the Borg can be made funny, but I’m willing to give it a go. Live long and prosper everyone x
This is a well-drawn book, but it’s frustrating to me that HeroCollector keeps releasing pointless memorabilia like this and that trinket-filled Borg advent calendar, instead of honoring their promise to complete the Star Trek Graphic Novel Collection. HeroCollector has screwed over fans so many times. I know people who have paid them hundreds of dollars without receiving any merchandise. They are not an honorable company when it comes to doing right by collectors. The pointlessness of this book illustrates it. Despite the good art, this is just cheap merchandising meant to fleece completist collectors without offering anything of substance. It’s so typical of HeroCollector.

T here are many reasons Star Trek has endured for almost 60 years. Often cited for the series' success are its humanistic ideals, its sense of exploration, and its imaginative, hopeful stories of the future. But another reason Star Trek connects with fans is that it is frequently hilarious with some of the funniest episodes in sci-fi history.
Star Trek’s humor might just be its secret weapon (set on stun, of course), so here are a few of our favorites of the funniest episodes in the franchise.
Star Trek: Enterprise – "Acquisition" – Season 1, Episode 19
The Ferengi are always good for a comedy episode in Star Trek, but this installment of Enterprise is particularly notable for the clever ways in which it allows Ferengi to board the NX-01 without the crew ever knowing who they are. Sure, most of the crew are unconscious for the majority of the story, but even Trip Tucker, the only one who stays awake and sees what’s going on, never identifies the looting interlopers.
“Acquisition” includes wonderful moments like an encounter between a Ferengi and Porthos and the constant squabbling between the would-be thieves while also managing to have Trip running around the ship in his underwear. This episode indulges the desire of the writers to allow their crew to interact with the scheming species while maintaining their mysterious status for the next couple of centuries.
Star Trek: The Next Generation – “Qpid” – Season 4, Episode 20
Few story elements bring out comedic gold in Star Trek, like putting our characters in whimsical roles and scenarios, and one of the best of these is “Qpid,” a classic episode wherein Q deposits Captain Picard and company in Sherwood Forest. With each character taking a different role from the Robin Hood stories, the great fun of the episode is watching everyone adapt to their ridiculous surroundings.
The funniest moments include Worf smashing Geordi's lute ("Sorry," he says, handing him the demolished instrument), Troi accidentally shooting arrows into Data's Friar Tuck, and of course, Worf's iconic line, "Captain, I protest! I am not a merry man!" It's a fun frolic of an episode.
Star Trek: Lower Decks – "An Embarrassment of Dooplers" – Season 2, Episode 5
Star Trek: Lower Decks frequently has us laughing, as it should, but “An Embarrassment of Dooplers” featuring a character who duplicates himself every time he gets embarrassed is one of the best it has to offer. Guest star Richard Kind's performance as the emotionally fragile Doopler emissary is pitch-perfect, while the crew's attempts to keep him calm cause them no end of frazzled nerves of their own. Meanwhile, Mariner and Boimler's attempts to get into a big, exclusive Starfleet party lead to zany extremes and a really sweet ending moment.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine – “Trials And Tribble-ations” – Season 5, Episode 6
The Star Trek: Deep Space Nine classic “Trials and Tribble-ations,” putting Sisko, Dax, Bashir, Odo, and Worf into the events of the Original Series episode “The Trouble with Tribbles” has to go down as one of the best, cleverest, and funniest episodes of the entire franchise. While it certainly represents a technical marvel for the technology of the time, it is also loaded with sight gags, awkward situations, and incredibly clever means of including the DS9 crew in the hilarity on the Enterprise and the K7 station.
Not only does it bring its characters into the zany fight on the station in creative and hilarious ways, but it also gives Star Trek’s first acknowledgment of the visual change in the Klingons since the Original Series, giving Worf one of his best comedic lines, “We do not discuss it with outsiders.”
Star Trek: The Original Series – “The Trouble With Tribbles” – Season 2 Episode 15
The classic Star Trek : The Original Series episode, “The Trouble with Tribbles” is the Enterprise crew’s original encounter with the most infamous little furballs in the galaxy and is easily one of the funniest episodes in the franchise. There is increasing hilarity around the ship and the K7 station as the seemingly innocent, cooing creatures continue to multiply, threatening to overtake both.
There is the classic shot of Captain Kirk buried in Tribbles as more continue to fall on his head throughout the scene. But the famous brawl in the K7 station’s commissary is full of comical hijinks, especially Tribble dealer Cyrano Jones’ determined focus on nabbing as many drinks from the now-open bar as he possibly can.
Star Trek: Voyager – “Body and Soul” – Seaosn 7 Episode 7
The comedy of Star Trek: Voyager’s “Body and Soul” centers around Jeri Ryan’s performance as Seven of Nine , who spends the majority of the episode inhabited by the Doctor. Ryan’s spot-on impression of costar Robert Picardo and the awkward situations she is put in throughout are pure comic gold. As the role of Seven of Nine was often somewhat narrow and emotionally limited, it’s incredibly rewarding to see her depicted in such a delightfully different way, demonstrating Ryan’s skill with comedy and allowing her room to at least breathe metaphorically, even if she didn’t get to change out of that silver jumpsuit.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – “The Elysian Kingdom” –
Admittedly, this Star Trek: Strange New Worlds episode, while one of the funniest episodes, might also rank among the most heartbreaking in the franchise when it returns to reality. “The Elysian Kingdom” spends most of its time letting the crew romp around an Enterprise that has been turned into a storybook kingdom, with consistently hilarious results. From Hemmer delighting in dramatically doing "magic" with his scientific equipment to Captain Pike as a complete coward and buffoon, showing off Anson Mount's incredible comic timing, this episode is loaded with laughs.
But the part that had us wiping away the most tears of laughter has to be La'an Noonien Singh's turn as an impossibly frilly, shrill, and vapid princess who is obsessed with her dog (Christina Chong's real-life pup). Of all the episodes in this list, we laughed the longest, the hardest, and for the most minutes of the episode’s run time watching this one.

What I've come to appreciate the most is how much they used to care about the canon and general mythos of the show. Small details from season 1 will actually be relevant in season 5. The writers built a world around Gene's idea that was truly inspirational, and felt as real as a TV can make it feel.
A compilation video of Star Trek: The Next Generation's cast flubbing lines, making jokes, and generally cracking up will make your day.
It was a lot of classicly trained Shakespearian actors making an over the top science fiction opera that pretended it was grounded. They had fun. If you're looking for more of the "old feel" Star Trek, I highly recommend checking out Strange New Worlds if you haven't yet. Anson Mount as Captain Pike is phenomenal.

Star Trek's 1st season blooper reel contains a narration that begins with "Ladies and gentlemen, due to circumstances beyond our control, the program originally scheduled at this time will not be presented . . ." Does anyone know who provided this narration?
The video editor took the funniest bloopers from Star Trek: The Next Generation and reintegrated them into their original scenes, creating bizarre out-of-character moments for the Enterprise-D crew.
