== Summary ==
;From the book jacket
:In the basement of the Star Trek archives, behind shelves of models, bags of wigs, and bins of plastic phasers, sits a dusty cardboard box. Inside is a pile of VHS tapes that contain never-before-seen episodes and behind-the-scenes footage for something truly amazing. The world thinks there are only seven seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation, but there's one more. A secret season.
:Actually, not really. But that didn't stop Mike McMahan, creator of the parody Twitter account @TNG_S8, from making a guide full of:
::REAL* TNG SEASON 8 FACTS AND STORIES!
::REAL* TNG SEASON 8 DIALOGUE AND IMAGES!
:(* Again, not really, of course. This is humor. Sorry.)

:The official parody guide to the unaired eighth season of , based on the popular @TNG_S8 Twitter account from creator Mike McMahan!
:On Twitter, Star Trek: The Next Generation lives on for one more season in the form of @TNG_S8 – a satirical eighth season that never aired! Each tweet to its more than 85,000 followers (and retweeted four times that amount) is a hilarious recap and spot-on exaggeration of one of the most beloved TV series ever aired. Now, @TNG_S8 creator Mike McMahan presents an officially licensed mockumentary-style book-length "episode guide" to Season 8. With colorful illustrations by Joel Watson of the HijiNKS ENSUE webcomic, and Jason Ho, longtime artist at Bongo Comics (publisher of the comic book versions of The Simpsons and Futurama), each "episode" contains plot descriptions, trivia, aliens new and old, set photos, and behind-the-scenes looks at the troubled production. This book will appeal to casual and obsessive fans alike, keeping the world of the show intact while hilariously exaggerating it.
