Mr.Picard 12 Posted August 22, 2003 If you buy season 5 DVDs I strongly recommend watching the mission logs... there is something being done which is sooooooooo funny :) :lol: Mrs. Captain Picard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stelfan 0 Posted August 27, 2003 The Inner Light is sooooo great! Patrick Stewart was amazing in that ep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted August 27, 2003 I loved this episode too, though I do recall someone saying this was the worst episode they had seen on TNG. I never agreed with that though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 5 Posted August 27, 2003 One of my favorite TNG Episodes...Looks like I'll have to buy season 5 on DVD.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 8 Posted August 31, 2003 Patrick Stewart really did an excellent job in this episode. He is an excellent actor anyway, but I believe one of the true tests of a truly great actor is when he has to age so drastically in a role. I think this episode and Chain of Command are the two episodes that really showcase Patrick Stewart's acting ability. And that whole flute thing. The way it was integrated into Picard's personality and shows up in so many other episodes. That's just brilliant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It showed fluidity in the character and that the events of one episode do carry into the characters "profile". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Picard 12 Posted August 31, 2003 "The Inner Light" is an episode that touched me deeply when I saw it for the first time. It really got me sitting in my chair and thinking a whole hour about what I had just seen. I also enjoyed the appearance of Patrick's son Daniel, it makes the episode really special. The greatest moment (in my opinion) is, when Jean-Luc awakes on the bridge and looks into the faces of his long forgotten friends/officers from the Enterprise.... God, this is sooooo touching... I also love the flute play. I bought the TNG soundtrack because it has this song on it. It is fantastic, everytime I hear it I remember the episode and then I start to think of it again and again .

Indy 8 Posted August 31, 2003 I love the very end when he is by himself in his quarters and he starts playing the flute. You can see in his eyes how much it meant to him, how much that life meant to him, and how truly difficult it was going to be to re-integrate into his life aboard the Enterprise. Excellent job, Patrick Stewart. I have great admiration for his acting abilities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trekzone 0 Posted August 31, 2003 very good episode, though not as good as Chain Of Command, personaly, i think it was the better character developer..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 8 Posted September 4, 2003 very good episode, though not as good as Chain Of Command, personaly, i think it was the better character developer..... Chain of Command was a great episode. I think Patrick Stewart should have gotten some kind of award for his performance in that episode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's one of those episodes that I really liked but not as a "repeat episode". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 8 Posted September 4, 2003 Maybe because it had a 'darker' theme. I thought this episode was totally different from any other episode of TNG. In some ways, it's not an easy episode to watch as it puts the hero in some very uncomfortable spots, but the acting by Patrick Stewart was excellent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
