Oh no! You can’t break the laws of physic; O’Brien MUST suffer! Take it away before the universe suffers a subspace quasar tachyon inversion burst collapse to the hull or something. 😉

TNG: "Shades of Gray", the really low-budget, terrible finale of season 2 where Riker has a virus that ~~makes him relive memories~~ turns the show into a clipshow.
But are you tough enough to watch the clip show?
What! Fairhaven is the best! Computer, delete the ~~wife~~ user! Just kidding. You're entitled to your opinion.
But yeh, I get the hurt of the end of a series.
As for TNG rewatches, at this point I just go back to a favorite episode and start from there; it's hard to sort good from bad in the early seasons.
Also, you can rip Blu-rays using a PC Blu-ray drive (which I acknowledge is increasingly hard to find - my PC doesn't even have a 5.25" bay - I just have SATA cables dangling out for the drive, which I ripped from another machine).
Honestly, it's a nice path to media ownership, although I don't use it a lot.
Honestly, as a busy college student, I’m not sure I could have put in the time to finish it up. Also, rendering the SVG moderately lagged out my computer - I can’t imagine the misery on weaker devices.
At least the OG 1701 got a good lifespan - it was no Miranda, but 40 years is great for an Enterprise.
The decommissioning of the A seemed a bit premature, though, considering it was a new ship that was relatively salvageable. Maybe its battle damage was just too much and that’s why it was given to the museum. Alternatively, the A was originally a different Constitution class undergoing a refit was was already quite old by Undiscovered country.
There’s a good chance the B lasted a long time too, though there’s no canon source to its demise, only that it’s not in the fleet museum.
Or just see if the kiss happens at timestamp 10:25 in the episode.
Also, little-known fun fact: the cow is a full Lieutenant.
In which media format? Stupid Paramount+ is going to have its stupid “not commercials” at the beginning of episodes, which might bork the timing.
I think The Orville improves over time - I initially hated both Isaac and Gordon, but they do good things with them later.
I have a Blu-ray drive, though my case doesn’t have 5.25” bays, so I just have the SATA cables come put the side.
The sole reason I have it is because once a couple years back, I wanted to watch the Star Trek: TNG Spanish dub, which was only available in the US on a Bluray, which I promptly borrowed from my local library.
I have used it a couple times after, though - once to burn a CD-R with TinyCore to boot on a Pentium II laptop, and once to backup a Bluray with a dub only available on that medium.
