Roddenberry Removing Q Broke A Star Trek: TNG Time Travel Episode
A Star Trek: The Next Generation time travel episode originally had a Q storyline that explained the strange events of the episode.
Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry broke this time travel episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation by removing a Q (John de Lancie) storyline that would have explained everything. Following the adventures of Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) and the USS Enterprise-D, TNG struggled in its first two seasons, before eventually becoming one of the greatest sci-fi television shows of all time. One of the most successful elements introduced in early TNG was the character of Q, whose nearly limitless powers allowed the show's writers to experiment with genre.
