I have been on a TNG kick lately as well. I always thought that I have seen every single episode but there are a select few that I have either never seen or that I have only seen maybe half of the episode.
For the OP, yes, season 1 and season 2 can get really corny. I was watching "Time Squared" last night and I had forgotten how weird Worf looks in the first two seasons.. and the corny musical cues.
Take note that the last episode of Season 2, "Shades of Grey" is absolutely the worst episode of TNG ever. It's a stupid flashback show they had to fill the season out with because there was a writer's strike at the time.
Also there are some really corny episodes in the last season, "Masks" and the one with the train to Vertiform City..
But the rest are good to incredible, and even the bad ones are at least watchable - except for "Shades of Grey", that one really is a stinker.
BTW has anyone else noticed that from some weird reason, the syndicated re-runs (comes on Syfy now I think) show Season 2 a LOT? Half the time I'm flipping through the channels and I find a TNG episode, here comes Dr. Pulaski.
While Pulaski was nothing to look at, I liked her character way more than Crusher.
Fav episodes of mine are:
The Wounded
The Inner Light
Cause and Effect
Yesterdays Enterprise
Reunion
The Drumhead
Yesterdays Enterprise would have been my #1 if it was filmed as planned. In the original draft, Wesley is decapitated when his console blows up in his face.
