There were two:  "Mudd's Women" and "The Corbomite Maneuver".
These were the first two episodes filmed with Nichelle Nichols.

Don't you guys ever *watch* TNG?  I seem to recall a certain episode in which
Data's command was treated very well.  Remember the "Sutherland"?  Remember
a first officer who was a royal pain in the butt until Data put him in his
place?

Actually, I heard that they also like to end film series with prime

   But you missed the link which motivated these two stories.  Stewart said
the silent waiter, very subtly giving him tribute showed "real class"
on the part of the Croatian waiter and cooks, whereas the Californian
acted more or less like an ass (though he didn't say the latter, it was
strongly implied.)  I must agree with his assessment (though I've been
guilty of some of that myself... One of these days, I'll write about
the time I scared Jonathan Frakes, though this buildup is much more
interesting than the story itself.)

Almost every time Ive seen Bev out of uniform, she is either off duty, or
the situation calls for it.  Troi on the other hand, wears what she wants
when she wants.  Sounds like a genetic thing from her mother :-)
Lets also realize this, Troi is bridge crew, when there is a problem
she is in the background behind the captian while he is making negoations.
I know I would want a professional looking crew behind me, rather than
people who obviously cant follow regulations.

Now, how is it, that the Enterprise houses over 1000, and not once have we seen
a toilet?

Picture this:
Camera pulls away from an unmarked door.  As the camera stops when the full
door is shown, you hear a futuristic-sounding flush.   Seconds later, Captain
Peckard (sp?) comes out, fixing his uniform as he so often does. He looks
around, and begins walking away.


Maybe at that point Data passes the captain, says "excuse me', and walks in the
bathroom himself.  A perplexed captain goes to the bridge.

I think this kind of everyday life and comedy is lacking from TNG.   I want a
toilet scene, and I want it now.

But you must remember that in Betazed culture sexuality is something
which has far less taboos than in human culture.  Troi doesn't see it
as "promoting" sexuality, but rather acting in accordance with her
culture.

1) See my point about Betzed culture above
2) I am not saying that back here in the real world, the
producers did not err in showing so much, er, cleavage.  I agree
that's somewhat sexist.  But this does not necessarily mean that
she must wear a Starfleet uniform; it only means the costumer should
change what she currently wears.

I didn't see that interview either (nor have I heard much of anything
concerning ST VIII except that there might be another TOS movie), but this
is an idea I've been voicing for a long time.  Let "The Big Three" retire, and
give some of the supporting members a chance to *really* play the heroes (esp.
Sulu, seeing as he now has his own ship with which to do so).  Besides,
focusing the movie on the Excelsior would give a better opportunity to create
a true bridge between the generations by allowing (albeit young) TNG characters
to show up early in their careers (something which Takei mentioned in humor
at a con I saw him at last February).
