The only episode worth watching twice was, "The Inner Light".....(IMHO) The rest of them were barely tolerable, or just annoying, as has been pointed out above...
I think that Roddenberry had a fetish for androgynous youths in white robes, and his anti-smoking hang up was also apparent, I cannot blame him for all the "crappe" on STTNG, but he holds the bag for STTOS, and all the duplication and copouts that plagued the original series. I do not know who to blame for the Next Gen and all the awful shows in the first year....In spite of the gawdawful writing and the annoying use of "Deus ex Machinae" (more than once a decade), it was better than watching the other pluperfect mind rotting crapola that was being shown at the time....
