I used to watch TNG a lot when it first came out, but a lot of the earlier ones were really disappointing and this was one of them.

When you find yourself able to figure out what's going on before any of the crew does, then you know it's going to be bad.

I knew right away when they were trying to start up the shuttle that they should reverse the polarity of the power, you know, the old - for + battery terminal switcharoo? But even Jordy and data had a tough time figuring that out? Come on -- gimme a break.

From there, the episode literally spirals into a black hole.

Oh yeah, and this one had the previous doctor, Diana Muldaur who I think she was not well suited to TNG, being as polite as I can. I found her and the actress who played Natasha Yar to be very weak elements of this show. The Deana Troy character can be pretty annoying and whiny too sometimes.

I wouldn't watch this one again if it came on, and I've re-watched most of the old original Star Trek series episodes a million times so that should tell you something.
