Blast From the Past

February 9, 2002

I was watching the Star Trek: The Next Generation reruns on TNN and saw an episode that I remembered (this isn't an odd occurrance; I remember almost all of them). I remembered that I thought the episode wasn't terribly good, but wanted a second opinion. Since I'm the only hard-core Trekkie that I know I turned to the Internet.

I found a Web archive of Tim Lynch's reviews of just about every Next Generation ep. When I first started at CMU I read the reviews on rec.atrs.startrek.misc. It was a nice regression to a time before I realized how badly hosed I was.

And it turns out he continued writing reviews well after TNG went off the air: He has online reviews of every movie from The Undiscovered Country through 1998's Insurrection.

I'll have to check out the site when Star Trek X comes out.
