Started Star Trek: The Next Generation for the first time last night. How big of an ongoing factor is "Q?" Because I kind of hate him.

I also had no idea the top portion of the Starship Enterprise could separate like that. That was pretty sweet.
You're viewing a single thread.
I felt the exact same way about Q after the first episode both as a character and as a concept for the show. They basically introduced God in the first episode of a science fiction show and he is annoying and arrogant.
But he is actually one of the best characters by the time the show is over and his all-powerful nature is toned down a little bit.
Season 1 is pretty goofy and inconsistent overall. Give it a chance and accept it for what it is and by season 4 the writing is some of the best in science fiction TV.
There’s literally a trope for how bad TNG was in the first seasons… until Riker grew a beard.
introduced God... he is annoying and arrogant
I mean, if you had those powers too, wouldn't you be a little arrogant?
TOS had so many "god" characters. At least they condensed them into 1.
That's a fair point. I remember there being several but honestly don't remember any specifically other than the Gamemaster of Triskelion because he gave such a funny performance.
