Chris... don't take this the wrong way, but please try not to spoil
current/recent episodes of shows. I haven't seen this episode yet, and
I hate finding out plot elements beforehand. I'm sure you know the
"spoilers" etiquette. Even if you think it's wretched, give us a heads
up first.

Talking about MSTability, though -- you know what ST:TOS episode was on
last night? "The Gamesters of Triskelion!" Oh, this had it ALL! A
shirtless Kirk! Scantily-clad vapid alien women! Badly-choreographed
gladiatorial fight sequences! Disembodied throbbing brains (hey, good
band name). And the most inane, wretched lines (Kirk: "We-- HUmans --
gamble for everything! Power! Money! Women!") Oh, did I mention that
this reached the pinnacle of Shatner's famous "Pause! in the middle of
lines" acting style?

We were just ROFL.

I'll agree with you about the general overall decline in the TNG episodes, but
I think DS9 has been doing pretty well, overall. (With some definite
exceptions.)

Mate, don't think I'm being a wiseass (I am), but when you see this smoulder-
ing pile of dog flop, YOU WILL GIVE PRAISE TO CTHULHU I WAS HERE TO WARN YOU!
I am not kidding; this one is gonna hurt like a Louisville Slugger enema.

When you see "Journey's End", you'll be ROTF -- but not in laughter. For cry-
ing in a bucket, BE CAREFUL! Be seeing you -- in hospital...or the morgue....
