HRH The KING 0 Posted May 29, 2005 A very good episode. Pretty decent make-up effects considering the time. But I personally found more interesting is the first sign of sinister actions inside the Federation, with the Admiral giving weapons to both sides in a civil war to rescue hostages, which causes a disasterous increase in the savagery of the conflict. I like that, I like it a lot. This episode gets a rating of 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Takara_Soong 4 Posted June 6, 2005 Not one of my favourite episodes however the dying words of Mark Jameson to his wife always make me sigh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen of Borg 2 Posted February 6, 2006 A LOT better than I was expecting. This episode gets so many mixed reviews, it's hard to know who to believe. I guess it's a like it or hate it episode, and I personally really did enjoy it. Clayton Rohner did a great job as Mark Jameson. I didn't find the final words of Jameson corny but very touching and sad. The quest for the fountain of youth is found, but has it's price ***** out of ***** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
youbroughtheryouRiker 2 Posted November 22, 2007 4. Got quite a kick out of this one. The old Jameson wasn't as convincing as the young, but the shaky movements worked well. Good acting overall, and excellent plot development. Fine stuff on this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
