You can watch every episode within this series, and I don't think you'll find one that runs on all cylinders like this one. I'll admit, as many have already noted, that there are technical flaws in the storyline, but that doesn't take away from the best finale I've ever seen.
Character development has evolved so much within the series, it is fantastic that the finale revolves around Picard, his crew and foes unique to STNG. I, for one, enjoyed seeing how the writers projected these characters beyond anything they had presented in any of the previous episodes.
So, if you enjoy the series, and are looking for an all encapsulating episode that contains action, thought, character relationships and a little Trek history, this is definitely the episode for you. Without spoiling this story, I felt the final scene was the best way to send this show into it's TV conclusion.

The final episode of Star Trek: TNG is my absolute favorite episode of the series. In my opinion it is better than "Best of Both Worlds". The series ended where it began, in more ways than one. It went back to the first mission of the Enterprise-D and scored the No. 1 position in the ratings. A masterpiece.

Just spent the last few months watching every TNG episode in order from episode 1 all the way through to AGT.
Even after 30 years since I watch this as a teenager, this show still blows me away.
AGT is the culmination of 7 years of hard work from some very talented actors, writers, producers, directors, make up and visual artists and everybody else that's involved with making these excellent shows, and it doesn't disapoint.
The second time around its still hard to say goodbye to the crew one last time, but if your going to end on a high, this episode has to be one of the best series finales ever made.
Watch it uninterrupted, with friends and think of all the things you can accomplish in your future, its not written yet.........

We start the episode with a distraught Picard being bounced around through time, unaware why as the episode starts, going from his first day on the Enterprise as Captain of the federation flagship, the present as a Captain older and wiser and twenty years time as a retired wine maker back in his beloved France. To wrap things up even more Q appears and has apparently placed humanity back on trial as a savage warlike race. However this time it is Picard himself who has caused the destruction and unravelling of the universe itself, although he has no idea how?
When I first saw this double episode adventure I was a major fan of the series and having been largely disappointed with series 7 was hoping I would get a big finish to the series and I was not disappointed. The story is great and continues very much in the vain of the last Q episode "Tapestry" arguably up there as one of the best Q episodes ever.
The performances by the cast are verging on perfect as they have got to the point where the characters are like a favourite suit that you were with pride and panache, because you know that whatever happens, you're gonna look great in it. The effects are great and there are some truly fantastic images and moments that are so well written that it brings home everything that we love about trek. The direction is flawless and the ending is so amazing that it almost makes me cry.
Better than all the next gen films out together and so sad that they couldn't do it on the big screen. However for non-next gen aficionados check out the best eps from the first seven series before you see this one, as you have to get the meaning from the other shows before you can appreciate this.
It was the best series ending till "Doctor Who's Army of Ghosts and Doomsday" but it's the best finale to a series that wraps everything up beautifully. Happy Days!

Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaPatrick Stewart and Jonathan Frakes are the only actors to appear in every episode of the series.
- GoofsThe anomaly is said to grow backwards in time. Yet, in the future when created by the tachyon beam it seems to grow normally in time as it is larger sometime after the creation.
- Quotes
[last line of the series]
Capt. Picard: So, five-card stud, nothing wild. And the sky's the limit.
- Alternate versionsThere are two versions available on video (UK). One on the series tapes with both parts appearing as separate episodes, the other as a re-edited feature length 'movie'. The latter has additional footage including an additional appearance by Q in the old Picard's bedroom just before he goes to 10 forward with new theories regarding the anomaly. This version makes more sense as you see where Picard gets his theory from.
