Goofs

Suddenly Human

Star Trek: The Next Generation

Edit

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

Data clearly checks his cards when playing the card game. As an android, he would not need to check what cards he has; they would be committed to memory. He could, of course, be 'mimicking' human behavior. In reality, he was checking so that viewers at home could see his hand.

The "mimicking" statement is accurate. Data has often indicated his desire to be "more human" as is exemplified by the conversation when Wesley's face is covered with a banana split.
When the senior crew is discussing who should mentor Jono in the Observation Lounge, Troi incorrectly refers to Jono as "Jeremiah" - the real name of the actor who plays him.

Actually, Jono is his Talarian name; his birth name is Jeremiah Rossa. The actor who portrays him is Chad Allen.
When Picard is meeting with Troi, he admits that he's not good with children. Troi replies, "Really?" in a very sarcastic tone. [Actually, her tone is more accurately characterized as mildly bemused rather than sarcastic.]

She is a ranked officer (lieutenant commander at this time), and should not address a superior officer in such a tone. However, in spite of their ranks, she is on friendly term with her captain and was presumably merely being humorous.
