The Next Generation has a number of episodes involving time travel to the past or to the future. However, what happens when people from the past end up stuck in the future of The Next Generation and have to adapt to a new century?
In this episode of Earl Grey, hosts Richard Marquez and Justin Oser are joined by guest Colin Higgins to discuss episodes of the The Next Generation where we find people from previous centuries ending up permanently in the 24th century. We discuss what we would do in their situations and how each group of people might adapt to their new lives in a new time period. Episodes covered include "The Neutral Zone," "The Emissary," "A Matter of Time," and "Cause and Effect."
