The funniest moment for me is when Data is telling Worf how to care for Spot. He's saying stuff like "You must provide her with feline supplement 39 twice per day. You must give her affection 3 times per day. You must tell her she's a good cat, and a pretty cat". Worf looks at Data with murder in his eyes and says "I will feed her".
Yeah, I struggle to identify a full episode of TNG that stands out to me as "funny" the way Voyager had Bride of Chaotica or SNW has the LD crossover; but there are lots of little moments like this one across the whole series that the other shows have a good number of, but not of the same caliber, y'know?
Can't remember the exact episode, but Picard has to personally reel off a long string of gibberish to the alien ambassador.
The reverse is the scene where Data is in command and he has to rein in Worf.
Data does not fuck around when he's in command.
If you haven't seen it, this is a great addition to the lore...
Leonard McCoy, Frontier Doctor by John Byrne. McCoy in the period between TOS and ST :TMP. A small ship patrolling the outskirts of the Federation, providing medical care.
I love that scene. Data apologizes for ruining their friendship, and Worf takes ownership of his mistake and says he still wants to consider Data his friend. It just made my heart happy.
