Star Trek: TNG 'The Measure Of A Man' Is So Frakking Good

Great episode.  Too bad they couldn't have done that one as a movie instead of all the shitty Star Trek  movies ever.  The amazing thing about the episode was that Whoopi Goldberg didn't completely fucking ruin it with Guinan the way the actress or the character did ever single other time she was on the show.  For once, and only once, the bit sorta worked.  It was completely unnecessary--and diminished Picard--but it was still okay.  Excellent all around, with that stink of the original show in the blatantly obvious and obviously 20th century American problems that was just perfectly executed.  Almost certainly the best 40-somthing minutes of ST:TNG.
