1. Check!

Did I hallucinate Myra? The girl who could change into animals and stuff? Or was she really in it?

4. Hmm... Good question.
It was like they made a big build up during the pilot and then didn't
get around to it.

3. Season 1 was produced with a straight face... season 2 was a cartoon.
Complete with silly disco music. :(

8. I agree, now.
When it came out, I was 13. The first season had tighter plot construction, but it was over my head. the second season was more special-effects driven, and I ate it up. I went back and watched several a couple years ago, and I was amazed at how different they were. The second season shows were lame.

12. IIRC, Landau was pissed off over the writing of Season 2.
It was a series that had potential, the season one writing could have been better, but even ST:TNG's writing was crap during its first season.

Unfortunately, the people behind the camera made some epic-scale cockups during the 2nd season, and well, sort of killed the show.

13. All I have to say is...
The writers and special effects people must have been baked out of their goddamn skulls when they did the episode where the moon went through the black hole.
