archives, behind shelves of U.S.S Enterprise NCC 1701 D models, bags of wigs, and bins of plastic phasers, sits a dusty cardboard box Inside is a pile of VHS tapes that contain never before seen episodes and behind the scenes footage for something truly amazing The world thinks there are only seven seasons of Star Trek The Next Generation, but there s oneA secret season.Actually, not really But that didn t stop Mike McMahan, creator of the parody Twitter account TNG_S8, from making a guide full of REAL TNG SEASON 8 FACTS AND STORIES REAL TNG SEASON 8 DIALOGUE AND IMAGES Again, not really, of course This is humor Sorry So impress your friends and bewilder your enemies with your newfound knowledge of these very lost Star Trek episodes Engage Free Download Warped Author Mike

definitely get a kick out of this fake episode guide The hilarious artwork is also a plus.Alas, these plots are much funnier in 140 characters on Twitter.Now this is a book of its time, a few years

it The only thing I didn t like was unnecessary heterosexuality but that s pretty common in Trek, so I can t complain too much I also loved how 90% of the Geordi and Data plots sounded like Troy and Abed plots from Community.Fun and in the right spirit Not only does this parody guide walk you through the unaired, unmade eighth season of Star Trek The Next Generation, it hits the right tone of Trek fandom, TV tropes, and what happens when a series carries on too long A fast, fun read.I followed the TNG_S8 account when I used to do Twitter, and loved it This book, which expands on those ideas, made me giggle A lot.Silly stupid fun If you re a viewer of the Greatest Generation, this is for you.Review cross posted from my book review blog This was a very amusing book As the summary

thing, a lot of the book is nothingthan stretching out a concept Dr Crusher goes on a date with a sentient virus is funny, but actually going to the trouble of describing the date and making up a

Riker, killing machine Worf, and precocious adolescent trouble maker best friends Geordi and Data get tiresome pretty quickly The truth is that the central joke behind the Twitter account isn t really

Twitter feed ever, cracked me up so many times over Anyone who knows Star Trek TNG needs to pick this up A total nerd book, but it s like every in joke you had during this series run was brought up A great burst of humor in a tough week.
