General points

 * All images look good, either free or fair use.
 * Length and scope are good.
 * No obvious NPOV or edit warring.

Writing

 * "But all four writers left the series at the end of the season." I would either remove the "but" or combine it with another sentence. The first option makes the most sense to me.
 * I'ved removed the "but". Miyagawa (talk) 20:44, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Casting

 * I made some minor copyedits. Feel free to revert if any of them changed the meaning of the sentences.
 * "Her departure has subsequently been blamed on Maurice Hurley" Who blamed Hurley?
 * In this case, Keith Candido - he's written a few Star Trek books in the Pocket Books line and knows quite a bit of the background. I've copyedited it to make that clear. Miyagawa (talk) 20:49, 10 January 2014 (UTC)


 * "There had been a letter writing campaign by fans..." might be better as "Fans started a letter-writing campaign..."
 * Changed as suggested. Miyagawa (talk) 20:49, 10 January 2014 (UTC)


 * "Todd also appeared as the older Jake Sisko in the Deep Space Nine episode 'The Visitor'." I'm not sure this line is relevant to the article.
 * Removed. Miyagawa (talk) 20:49, 10 January 2014 (UTC)


 * "Katsulas became better known for a main role in another American science fiction television series, Babylon 5, as G'Kar." Again, this may be beyond the scope of the article.
 * No worries, removed it. Miyagawa (talk) 20:49, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Ratings

 * "By the end of season two, The Next Generation had risen to become the third most viewed series in its timeslots." Timeslots? Is that intentional or a typo?
 * I've changed it to timeslot. Miyagawa (talk) 20:50, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Other than those minor points, it all looks fine to me. Nice article! --Coemgenus (talk) 18:44, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review! Much appreciated. Miyagawa (talk) 20:50, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Looks good. Passed. --Coemgenus (talk) 21:23, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
