I think that season 3 of Star Trek The Next Generation is where the show really came into its own and started to cast off the shadow left by the original series.

Season 3 has some terrific science fiction stories told with classic episodes like "Yesterday's Enterprise", "The Defector", "Best Of Both Worlds Part I" and "Sarek" which sees Mark Lenard return as Spocks father.

There are 26 episodes this season which last roughly 44 minutes each and for the current prices that these new Star Trek slimline boxsets are being sold for you cant really go wrong.

There seems to be a noticable difference in quality from season 2 to 3 with minor details being refined in set design and costumes. The music for the show, although not particularly memorable always seems to fit very well for the situations used.

This season also adds Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) as a recurring character who will last until the series ends. Returning aswell this season is Dr Crusher (Gates McFadden) who had left the show over season 2.

The special features in this boxset are minimal with just a couple of featurettes with interviews from cast and crew, behind the scene tours and an overview of season 3.

Season 3 is easy to recommend as with a lot of Star Trek The Next Generation most of the episodes are self contained so will not require a lot of pre-existing knowledge or having to watch previous seasons. I will however recommend buying season 4 aswell as the end cliffhanger from season 3 in "Best Of Both Worlds" is widely considered one of the best in science fiction still after all these years.

Main Cast List:

Captain Picard - Patrick Stewart
Commander Riker - Jonathon Frakes
Lt. Cmdr. Geordi LaForge - Levar Burton
Lt. Worf - Michael Dorn
Dr Crusher - Gates McFadden
Lt. Cmdr. Data - Brent Spiner
Counsellor Troi - Marina Sirtis
Wesley Crusher - Wil Wheaton
