Instead of not simply not including all of the episodes, or a whole season taking up more than just one disk, the bootlegged complete seven seasons of Next Generation on seven disks that I got in China truncates some episodes, so that everything after what would have been the last commercial break of the episode is simply not there ( Read more... )
