Genetic engineering has been a thread throughout Star Trek ever since the classic first season episode of The Original Series, "Space Seed," which introduced Khan Noonien Singh. The Next Generation has its own share of thought-provoking episodes that focus on genetic engineering and genetically designed people.
In this episode of Earl Grey, hosts Justin Oser, Joe Keegan, and Amy Nelson talk about episodes of The Next Generation featuring genetically designed people and what their portrayal tells us about the show's perspective on different types of genetic engineering. The episodes discussed include "Unnatural Selection," "Up the Long Ladder," "The Hunted," and "The Masterpiece Society."
