5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful for Trek Lovers, June 4, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Nitpicker's Guide for Next Generation Trekkers, Volume II (Paperback)
I have read this book hundreds of times. I love getting it out when I watch a Next Generation rerun, so that I can see the mistakes and it is hilarious! Phil Farrand has a unique sense of humor that only Trek lovers can understand. I highly recommend this book to anyone that enjoys watching Star Trek: The Next Generation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Fun!, June 10, 2000

This review is from: The Nitpicker's Guide for Next Generation Trekkers, Volume II (Paperback)
Though not as outrageously funny as the Nitpicker's Guide to Classic Star Trek, this volume had me, a grown man, giggling like a naughty schoolgirl (and that's quite a confession). All the inconsistencies and plot oversights are handled by a very sarcastic and wry author (Phil Farrand) who knows how to make us laugh at a great but sometimes pretentious and pompous TV show in Star Trek: The Next Generation.

I've had this book for quite sometime and I still go back and read parts of it every now and again when I need a laugh.

This book is for the serious Trekker (or Trekkie) who can take a joke.

This review is from: The Nitpicker's Guide for Next Generation Trekkers, Volume II (Paperback)
A brilliant, post-post-modern book that compiles an episode guide and list of mistakes for a television program. For maximum irony the world really needs a 'nitpicker's guide to nitpicker's guides'.

More specifically, there are two volumes of 'Next Generation' guides (the first goes up to the end of series 6, the second has additional mistakes, condensed episode guides, and 'Generations'). It works brilliantly just as an episode guide, and the mistakes are well-chosen and quite perceptive. There's also a fantastic 'Original Series' guide, a 'Deep Space Nine' guide (which is very large and dull, a bit like the series itself), and an 'X-Files' guide. Nothing on 'Voyager' yet.

Or is it u-post-modern?
