                          Star Trek TNG List of Lists
                             compiled by Mark Holtz
                          (Revised September 13, 1992)

DISCLAIMER: "Star Trek", "Enterprise", and all other related items are 
copyright and trademarks of Paramount Communications.  Any infringement of 
these lists on Paramount's legitimate copyright and trademarks are purely 
unintentional, and will be corrected upon proper notification. These lists are 
for the enjoyment of the reader only, and may not be sold. Some items in these 
lists are taken from Mike Brown's "ST:TNG Program Guide", and no copyright

guide, not replace it. You are highly recommended to purchase Mr. Brown's 
guide.

This is the Star Trek TNG Lists of Lists. It contains a listing of all the 
episodes for "Star Trek: The Next Generation" TV series, plus some added 
notes. (Due to length considerations, there is a separate TOS/TAS, Movies, and 
DS9 List of Lists) This list comes out around the 1st and 16th of every month, 
except July and August, when it will come out on the 1st only. However, a 
posting may not come out due to events beyond my control.

If you are wondering why I compile these lists, it is strictly out of the
enjoyment of "Star Trek", and enjoy a wealth of information from other people 
who post on the electronic networks. After being irritated by the ever 
constant requests for episode lists on Usenet, I decided that, in the middle 
of 1990, to post a list of episodes on a regular basis. It soon grew from 
that, and, with the contributions of other people, these lists grew to what 
you see today. (And still growing). The only payment I ask is thanks and 
contributions, I am not making a dime off these compilations.

Syndication Notes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Star Trek: The Next Generation" is a syndicated program that is sold to each
individual station. It is not part of the FOX network, although many stations
that have purchased TNG are also part of FOX.

The first run episodes are uplinked to the local stations on the Saturday and 
Sunday of the Satellite Date. This uplinking is done through Keystone
Communications (formerly WOLD Communications), through Telstar 301. The
program is uplinked on saturdays through Transponder 9-Vertical Polarity (5V)
at 1800 ET/1500 PT, and on sundays through Transponder 9-Vertical Polarity
(5V) at 1400 ET/1100 PT. The carriers are wide-band, and are: 6.2-left,
6.8-right, and 5.8-mono. No scrambling is employed in the uplink. (With
Telstar 301 reaching the end of it's life, the feeds may be moved to Telstar
302 in the near future, and then to Telstar 401 during 1993) The station then
airs the episode for the first time anytime during Paramount's official week
of (Monday through Sunday).

It is currently against Paramount contract to cut short the closing credits 
and the Paramount logo in first-run episodes. If your station is cutting the 
credits, cutting the episodes, or is running severe weather warnings during 
the actual program, then write to both the offending station and:

     Paramount Pictures Corporation
     TV Syndication and Promotion
     5555 Melrose Ave.
     Los Angeles, CA  90038

Currently, the episodes from seasons one through five are currently available 
for daily syndication from Paramount television. (Some stations, with the 
unavailability of "Time's Arrow II" in daily syndication, may elect not to air 
"Time's Arrow".) With the exception of "Encounter At Farpoint", there is no 
editing by Paramount television in order to make room for more commercials.  
Any such editing is being done by your local station. "Encounter At Farpoint" 
is being distributed as a two-part episode, with several scenes being moved 
around, some other scenes being shortened or cut, and some of the audio being 
changed.

Currently, it is permissible for Star Trek: The Next Generation to be subject 
to "Syndication Exclusivity" rules. Thus, if, on your local cable system, both 
your local station and a out of town station both carry TNG, your local 
station can have the out of town station's TNG broadcasts be blacked out on 
cable.

Currently, Columbia House Video Library is distributing TNG on VHS video tape.  
"Encounter At Farpoint" is carried on these series of tapes as a two-hour
movie, as seen originally in 1987. However, the box says two-part, since the
original run of cassettes was the two-part chopped version. All the other 
episodes are being distributed in a uncut form. The episode are ordered 
according to Production Code number. To order, call Columbia House for more 
information at 1-800-538-7766.

"Encounter At Farpoint", "The Naked Now", "Code Of Honor", "Haven", "Where No 
One Has Gone Before", "The Last Outpost", and "Lonely Among Us" are available
directly from Paramount Home Video in both video tape and (possibly) laser 
disc through your local video store. However, there is no word on when or if 
more episodes will be released.
