Star Trek: The Next Generation

DramaMysterySci-Fi46 min per episode

Nearly a century after Captain Kirk’s era, Capt. Jean-Luc Picard commands the USS Enterprise-D as it travels the galaxy on Starfleet missions of exploration, diplomacy, and first contact. Patrick Stewart is Picard, a measured commander leading a crew that includes Jonathan Frakes and Brent Spiner, as each new destination brings alien civilizations, political standoffs, and unexplained phenomena. Set in the 24th century, the series expands the Star Trek world with a more formal Enterprise, where scientific discovery and moral debate matter as much as action in space.
