This was… an oddly lackluster pair of episodes, considering everything that happens within them.

Skin of Evil: )

tv shows: star trek: the next generation, that isn't how i'd tell this story but o, rewatch, fan poison

Yay! Glad to see you're doing this again!

"Skin of Evil" intrigued me when I was young because I knew Tasha Yar died in it, but when I saw the episode I remember being disappointed in how, for such a climatic event, it was a rather boring, campy episode.

And I remember that every time I tried to watch the Paris episode I was so bored by it I stopped watching. I've not tried to watch the first season as an adult. Definitely not the highlights of the show.

Glad you're reading! :)

Yeah, both of these were pretty bad. I know Denise Crosby had to leave because of a contract dispute or an offer to star in some movie, and it was as if the producers/writers just threw up their hands and collectively said, "whatever." (And possibly some ruder stuff, too, I bet.). I'm eagerly awaiting the end of Season 1!
