The Trekzone Review

It’s quite funny, watching this episode in high definition makes it seem less… I dunno, less 80’s… as with the future spin off series though, these nonsensical episodes help to build the base for a great series. Ah, and the good ol’ classic dramatic “sting” music can be heard!

In regards to that less 80’s comment, the Picard / Crusher interaction was more humurous rather than cringeworthy. Plus, I’m still in awe of the quality of the transfer, almost as if it was made in this television season.
