i watched TNG through when it aired as a child, and then again probably every other year since. i dont know anyone IRL who has seen or consumed more TNG, or loved it more than i do
It's strange how brains store information so differently. I've watched through TNG maybe 5 times as an adult—most recently last year. (Watched a lot more in middle school because my dad recorded most of them onto VHS.) I went 20/20 with an average of 1.5 guesses. The game would show me a picture of a scanner on a table, and my brain would go, "That's the scanner Data used to scan Geordi and Ro when they phase shifted by the Romulans." Search "geordi romulans" and, boom, get it in 1.
Why did my brain store TNG to this level of detail and not, like, quantum mechanics or the names of the people in my church? This is not particularly useful information, brain!
I watched tng and voyager 100s of times, I never have known any episode names of either. I recognized all the screens though and can tell what season and if it’s early or late in the season.
Well once I saw it wanted episode names, I was like "Nope, not for me".
I can't recall a single name of any episode, except for maybe measure of a man and inner light. But I could tell you exactly what will happen within 5 seconds of watching an episode.
i couldnt get a single one right lol
