Honest Trailers - Star Trek: The Next Generation

And a fun commentary with the video's writer, TNG fan Dan Murrell:

Towards the end, he notes how little Paramount has done for the show's 30th Anniversary.
 
I loved when they pointed out how Riker wants to bone anybody, if even they don't have anything to bone. And then the line from the It's Pat alien about Riker's genitalia and his reaction, priceless.
 
i love the pointing out of so many concerts. that whole video was hysterical. :lol:

After watching that commentary (partially), too bad they left out so much. Is there a time limit how long a Honest Trailer can be...
 
Thanks for finding that!

Wow, they really bang on Geordi and, of course, "being civilized is boring". :(

"Marriott convention center" - LOL.

Surprised they didn't knock Troi with her sensing what everyone else already knew. - and how many clips did they take out of context to fit the narrative, LOL...

"...Data drops being an android into conversations like your friend who just became a vegan" - mostly LOL.

Riker - if only they put the reveal of "hologram" until after the other terms (but before the andogynous one who wants details on his sexual organs...), but it's all still hysterical!

Concerts - lots and lots of concerts, LOL!

Surprised they didn't mention Jerry Goldsmith's TMP theme being repurposed from 1979 and again in 1989...

More surprised that out of 179 million episodes, they recommend "Sub Rosa" - what are they smoking???!

That was funny. They really nailed the show's patterns.

They recommended Sub Rosa because out of all the terrible episodes, it's the one that's terrible most hilariously.

TNG has its palm punches just like DS9 has it's closed double fist into the stomach, followed by chop over the shoulders.

I never realised how often Riker sits down by going over the chair.

Once you realize it you'll see it all the time. I didn't notice it either until a couple of years ago when I saw someone comment on the "Riker Manuver"

I thought that was the old "Stinknuts" play in which he props his leg up on a console when he's facing the helmsman..
 
There are many Riker Manuvers.... Like walking into a room leading with his shoulders and a swagger.... Also the Riker "go to" expression.. "What the hell?"...

Great video!! :D
