Summary

Season 4 of TNG saw the show embracing the notion of serialized storylines. A recurring theme throughout the season is the notion of a brewing Duras-Romulan plot against the Federation, coupled with Worf's effort to reclaim his family honor. Both storylines were introduced in TNG Season 3's "Sins of the Father". Worf's discommendation is a major theme in "Family" and "The Drumhead", while his dishonor and the Duras-Romulan plot take center stage in the episodes "Reunion", "The Mind's Eye", and "Redemption".

A second recurring storyline in the season is the growth of Miles O'Brien as a character. His first and middle name are revealed in "Family", he marries in "Data's Day", his past is revealed in "The Wounded", and his marriage is explored in "In Theory".

Following "The Best of Both Worlds" cliffhanger, Season 4 was also known as the soft family-themed season. Indeed, the first post-Borg episode deals with Picard and Worf's family, the second with Data's. Worf's son Alexander appears later in the season, as does Natasha Yar's sister, and the Enterprise encounters an infant alien space entity.

Background information

The cast of Season 4

Celebrating 100 episodes

• This season marks the 100th episode of The Next Generation with the episode "Redemption". Gene Roddenberry and the cast and crew celebrated this event with a cake and were interviewed by Entertainment Tonight. ("Celebrating 100 Episodes", TNG Season 4 DVD special feature)
• This season also marks the 80th episode, "Legacy", passing the 79 episodes run of Star Trek: The Original Series.
• Filming for the sixth feature film Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country started during the production of the last episode of the season in April 1991, "Redemption".
• Veteran television writer Lee Sheldon was a producer for the first eight episodes of this season. He also wrote the episode "Remember Me".
• This season marks the departure of regular cast member Wil Wheaton, with "Final Mission" being his last episode. Wheaton later returns for the episodes "The Game", "The First Duty", "Parallels", and "Journey's End".
• Denise Crosby returned to The Next Generation playing Sela, the Romulan- Human daughter of Crosby's main character Tasha Yar.
• Following the departure of Richard Manning and Hans Beimler as co-producers, Jeri Taylor joined the crew as supervising producer and also wrote several episodes. She was asked to join the staff after rewriting the episode "Suddenly Human". Joe Menosky and Ronald D. Moore worked together as executive story editors and Brannon Braga worked as writing staff intern, although uncredited. Andy Neskoromny also joined the staff as assistant art director and chief lighting technician Buddy Bowles was replaced by William Peets after the first four episodes. Following Vivian McAteer's departure, Yolanda Toussieng was hired as hair designer and sound editor Mace Matiosian was replaced by Dan Yale. Dennis Tracy replaced Jeffrey Deacon as stand-in for Patrick Stewart.
• Patrick Stewart, cinematographer Marvin Rush, and producer David Livingston made their directorial debut in this season.
• Michael Piller explained the change to a more emotional storyline and the decision to have more episodes feature the familial connections with "You cannot kill the regulars and the audience knows it. But you can wound them." ("Mission Overview Year Four", TNG Season 4 DVD special feature)
• The episode "Family" is the first episode of The Next Generation not having any scenes on the bridge of the Enterprise-D. (Two episodes from the seventh season, "Dark Page" and "Liaisons" would also be bridge-less.)
• Main cast member Gates McFadden became pregnant during this season and learned about her pregnancy shortly after filming her stunts for the episode "Remember Me". ("Inside the Star Trek Archives – Cast Member Hides Pregnancy", TNG Season 4 DVD special feature)
• Gates McFadden explained about the scenes between herself and guest actress Nicole Orth-Pallavicini in "The Host" "Some people were outraged at any hint of homosexuality". ("Inside the Star Trek Archives – Cast Member Hides Pregnancy", TNG Season 4 DVD special feature)
