Whoah...wasn't this an incredible episode?! Definitely the best of the TNG episodes I've seen so far...I thought everyone did a really good job in it. Riker's argument was rather disturbing-I found myself wondering what would happen to Data! All in all, I thought that it truly reflected on what could happen if we allow us to think that any being is "disposable." What are your thoughts on this episode?

"The Measure of a Man" was a great episode -- one of my favorites from the second season. It was one of those episodes that makes you think. I liked how it wasn't action-based, but still had an impact.

I don't really think he was infatuated or in love with her, but they were very close, and I think that, especially in regards to her final words to him in the hologram message, he understood that he was important as both a person and a friend to her and vice versa.

I loved "The Measure of a Man." It was so poignant, and still is so relevant. Incredible.

I think it was one of the best episodes. Picard's defense was so great! I especially liked that he totally humiliated Maddox into speechlessness. It was really great!

This is a good episode that centers around they best developed character, Data and a credit to Brent.

I've read the sypnosis, and it's a pretty good episode if I may say so myself, thought I haven't seen it.
