Last episode of the season! Which also means last Pulaski episode! Huzzah!

Ah! Riker’s fever dreams have him shaven again! I don’t like!

Wait! Is this a clip show?! Of season one?!

Oh my God, they’re showing all his conquests now! Jeebus.

Man, how you going to end a season on a clip show?! I understand the behind-the-scenes reasons for this (the show had to save time and money somewhere thanks to the Data-as-Sherlock and Borg episodes), but why make this your season finale? As a viewer in the 80s, I would have thought this was the final episode of the show, never to return! And clip shows are just damn lazy, man!
Basically, Riker gets sick and has to go through his memories while comatose in order to fight off the infection because the medical science on this show makes no damn sense.
Can you tell I hate clip shows?
Still, this is the only TNG episode to feature pretty much every major character introduced thus far on the show (even if most of them were only in the clips, including Worf and The Boy), and the only episode to have both Pulaski and Crusher (but Crusher only in clips).
But still, ugh.
