TNG is infected by that ridiculous Q.

Hey, hey!! Don't mess with Q!!! :)
The idea of an omnipotent character is something that continually surfaces in Rodenberry's work. In TOS, it was Trelane, then Q. I found Trelane really annoying. But Q is a piece of work. I think John DeLancie plays it to perfection, and it provides a nice little foil for Picard.
And some ST fan(atic)s say that Trelane in The Squire of Gothos, was probably a young Q.
I think the writers of the show eventually realized what Alberto is saying, though. I guess that's why Q and the Q Continuum are presented in a more vulnerable fashion in one of Voyager's most memorable episodes, "DeathWish".
Excellent episode, probably one of my 10 favorite ST episodes of all time (well, at very least top 15 :-).
