Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Measure of a Man

The Apocalypse Video Trek-Cast is joined by none other than their resident A.I., Chad, as the crew discuss the classic Season Two episode of The Next Generation: The Measure of a Man.

Captain’s Log: Stardate 42523.7

With our first Trek-Cast behind us, we leave behind the spotty at best episodes of The Next Generation's first season and venture into the more satisfying episodes of season two with the critically acclaimed "Measure of a Man", in which Captain Picard represents Data in a hearing that will not only determine whether or not he is property of the Federation, but a sentient life form.

Joining me as always (as is required as a part of his punishment), is former first officer Mike, Trek-fan Jackie, and special guest Chad, joining us in his holo-form.

Topics covered in this assignment include the introduction of the famous "Riker Beard"; Captain Picard perfects the power move as he demonstrates "The Picard Walk-Out"; and finally, we wonder if Commander Maddox had more on his mind than simply trying to duplicate Data. Come on! Did you see the way he was eyeing Data's ports?!
