Apparently when human being are given the power of God they instantly become arrogant despite living a life of service to starfleet.
I do ponder what level of evolution can humanity possibly reach that it will become more powerful then entities that can control time and space with a thought?
It is suggested that Q is going rouge with giving Riker powers. Perhaps this is a Q prime directive that Q ignored?
We are experiencing a TOS episode set on a TOS sound stage with TOS visual effects. It just doesn't land well.
Assorted thoughts:
This episode is realistically a 5 out 10 but I am going to elevate it to a 6 out of 10 because I laughed my ass off at how alpha Wesley Crusher looked 10 years into the future. The fact that the prop department had to make another one of those awesome sweaters in an extra large is delightful.
Beyond laughing at adult Wesley Crusher and chuckling at the Napolean War Pig Men this episode did not engage me in any way. Probably the weakest Q episode?

- Tasha Yar loses her mind for a brief moment here ----- She starts crying about not having control of the situation and then tells Picard she would totally sleep with him if he wasn't her captain.
- Worf's ninja jump at Q during the opening was wonderful.
- Georgi has a thing for Tasha. It must be a real drag to view people as light sources while wearing the car filter over your eyes.
