Just about to finish TNG Season 2, I only watched the odd episode on television in the 90's and ST: Enterprise is the only complete series I have binged.

So I saw Measure of a Man which was great, in addition to that one, what episodes should I look forward to?

The Inner Light is by far my favorite episode. Jean-Luc is visibly changed after his experience.

TIL it is Patrick Stewart's favorite episode of the series.

The name instantly conjures the flute melody.

A wonderful piece of science fiction.

I'd say The Inner Light is almost universally considered the greatest TNG episode, although there are other great ones.

I in particular enjoyed The Measure of a Man, The Drumhead, The Chase, Who Watches The Watchers, Yesterday's Enterprise, The Offspring, The Best of Both Worlds, Darmok, Chain of Command, The Pegasus, Lower Decks, and All Good Things.

Almost certainly the worst episode is Masks (or maybe Shades of Grey)

The Chase is one of my go-to feel good episodes!
