An incredibly bad episode.

 

A planet ruled entirely by women??? LOL!!!!!

 

Erm.....

 

 

Anyway, the slightest of stories which didn't appeal to me.

 

Riker wearing that ridiculous outfit was hilarious, and it was obvious that the female leader wasn't going to execute the men.

 

I give this episode a rating of 0

A planet run by women - now that's progress!!!

 

The comedic moments in this episode - Riker in that outfit, Data trying to figure out the atomizer and spraying himself with fragrance - were enough to make it watchable.

a fairly interesting episode that is just average. Nothing really exciting about this episode and it is almost below average, but it still has a few saving graces.

 

*** out of *****

3. An interesting attempt to reverse stereotypes and apply them, but it didn't work completely well. Beata wasn't that bad of a character really, but the whole thing didn't take as well overall as it could have.
