Up the Long Ladder - s2e18

It seems the space Irish don't mix well with asexual cloners. The Enterprise saves a centuries-old human colony from the European Union, er, Hegemony which is inhabited only by American stereotypes of Irish people. It's lazily played for laughs, and Riker enjoys some sexy times from a fiery guest star, but then the episode takes a turn where the sister colony's prime minister steals Riker and Pulaski's DNA. Oops! Let's abort those  clones quick. Then they all decide to force these two peoples to breed, which feels wrong on multiple levels. Kate hosts and makes sure to note how Pulaski and Worf smash, Jimmie has feelings for Riker, Erik says his people don't always need their whiskey, and Greg's nostalgia for this episode gets the better of him.

We'd love to receive more feedback or questions we can read aloud and answer on episodes in the future so feel free to email [email protected] or message us on Twitter @ReEngageTNG!
