It's time to let TV's "The Next Generation" take over for good.

Meyer keeps his camera hopping and the production has a dark, atmospheric sheen that persistently suggest mystery and danger. Not the best of the series, but a suitable farewell.

There are weaknesses here--especially when the climax becomes too packed and chaotic, and the goodby over-hasty. But Meyer and Flynn get a fullness back into the characters.

Ironically, audiences likely be calling for more. With the new movie, subtitled "The Undiscovered Country," Kirk, Spock, and Co. are back in fine form... Star Trek VI has the aura of new beginnings.
