Lwaxana

Story: Haven
Written By: Tracy Tormé
Series: Star Trek: The Next Generation
Year: 1987

"Haven" is another hit and miss episode. Some hate anything to do with Lwaxana Troi, but I actually love her character, more than I like our actual main character Troi…and in fact the only downside to Lwaxana in an episode is that we get more Deanna Troi.
This episode is pretty bad. The time has come for Deanna to participate in her arranged marriage. It isn’t that great a concept.

The plot moves slowly and characters act either whiny or bitchy for most of the episode. The only saving grace for me is Lwaxana Troi and her relationship with both Deanna and Picard. And Mr. Homm is cool too.
