Parallels: First Time Watching TNG

I'm watching TNG for the first time and reached the episode Parallels in season 7 yesterday. I really enjoyed it, but I feel really bad for alternate universe Captain Riker and his crew that died :( He seemed so hopeless at the idea of going back to fight the Borg.

I was hoping they'd show at least one other bridge of an alternate Enterprise in that ending scene and thankfully they did. Although, it could've been cool to see some other bridge crews and how they were different in their own universe.

Favorite random detail: Data with blue eyes, even if it was just for one scene
