Past, present and future collide for Captain Picard as he finds himself bouncing around through three different time periods -- the Farpoint mission, the present, and the future in which many changes have affected the Enterprise-D crew. Meanwhile, the mischievous Q is back for his last time trying to help Picard figure out the meaning of a spatial anomaly... or is he only making things worse? You be the judge on this two-hour TV movie which concludes Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Trivia

The console Romulan Commander Tomalak leans over to address Picard through the viewscreen is a reuse of a stock set element that previously appeared as a central console on the mercenary vessel's bridge in "Gambit, Part I" and "Gambit, Part II".

Goofs

In the parts taking place together with Star Trek: The Next Generation: Encounter at Farpoint, Data mistakenly wears the insignia of Lieutenant Junior Grade even though he's a Lieutenant Commander, as shown in the original pilot.

Quotes

[first lines]
Counselor Deanna Troi: [exiting the holodeck] That was an incredible program!
Lieutenant Worf: I am glad you approve. I have always found the Black Sea at night to be a most stimulating experience.
Counselor Deanna Troi: Worf - we were walking barefoot on the beach, with balalaika music in the air, ocean breeze washing over us, stars in the sky, a full moon rising - and the most you can say is "stimulating"?
Lieutenant Worf: It was... *very* stimulating.

Alternate Versions

There are two versions available on video (UK). One on the series tapes with both parts appearing as separate episodes, the other as a re-edited feature length 'movie'. The latter has additional footage including an additional appearance by Q in the old Picard's bedroom just before he goes to 10 forward with new theories regarding the anomaly. This version makes more sense as you see where Picard gets his theory from.

User Reviews

The Greatest Star Trek Episode of All Time

"All Good Things" easily surpassed many of the Star Trek movies in its politically intricate and emotionally charged plot. It is a tradegy that ST:TNG had to come to an end at the crest of its success since two of the three movies "Generations" and "Insurrection" didn't come close to keeping the glory and concept of Star Trek Alive. "All Good Things" will go down in the Star Trek and Sci-Fi grapevine as the most watched and defining show of its time. Kudos.
