@andreas1138 I find your choiches quite interesting even if I don't agree with all of them 100 %. But I do understand why you choose them. And as I always say: it would be boring if we all like the same.
My biggest issue with season two was the absence of Dr. Crusher which was one of my favorites from day one. And as you cleary have gathered from my comments, I didn't like Pulaski. She really was a red cloth for me.
You can easily skip Shades of Grey (clipshow, nothing in it) and Royale (good idea, awful execution). Up the long ladder has no implications in the big picture. Manhunt has some funny parts with Lwaxana (if you like her), to be honest I don't know if any relevant parts are in there but I don't think so.
But if you are like me I'll guess you watch it anyway.
@finfan I read that Lwaxana was played by Majel Barrett-Roddenberry! I'll catch the episode, then!
I missed Dr. Crusher too, I am happy to see her again on Season 3! I like her because she is deeper than other characters: she has a role on the crew, a very important one, but she's also a mother, so it's something different from Picard, Riker, ecc.
I read all your reviews from the episodes' comments, if you have something to add about my different point of view, I am interested in your opinion. Thank you, as always, for your replies!
@andreas1138 you're welcome. I like reading your comments. It's rare to find a first time viewer today. I talk about Trek often with friends but they all have seen it dozens of times. So having a fresh view on things is interesting.

@finfan I finished Season 2. I preferred Season 1, but I can tell the production quality is usually good. The story are complex enough for a series of that age and I always feel I am in space with the crew.
Already started Season 3 and I can tell the production value is increasing.
My personal awards for S2:
Favourite episodes: 2x08 A Matter of Honor and 2x15 Pen Pals
Favourite aliens: The Borgs... but I don't know if we can call them aliens.
Favourite guest stars: Nikki Cox (Sarjenka from 2x15 Pen Pals), Suzie Plakson (K'Ehleyr from 2x20 The Emissary), Jaime Hubbard (Salia from 2x10 The Dauphin).
Favourite holodeck moments: Worf's rite of passage from 2x14 Icarus
Favorite moment: Riker confronting the Klingons in 2x08 A Matter of Honor
Funniest moment: Wesley asks Riker and Guinan how to deal with the girl he likes (2x10 The Dauphin)
Best story I wanted as a prominent subject: Time issues in 2x13 Time Squared
I haven't watched 2x12 The Royale, 2x18 Up the Long Ladder, 2x19 Manhunt and 2x22 Shades of Gray. I'll try to get to them eventually.
