One of the series' best
3 August 2010 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Evidently some of the fans of this show, as seen by the low ratings given to each and every one of the new episodes, believe this show has not returned to form/nor can it ever be/nor does it have the "right" to (I guess it's cool to have that attitude, especially when others do). If one actually views the new episodes with an unbiased mind, and grades them on the content on the screen, the ratings would be higher. But I digress...

This episode deserves a 10/10 because of its unique and inventive plotting, poignancy, humor, terrifically obscure (and in-jokey) references, and its clever exploitation of a terrific sf premise.

There. I just gave a review for something and explained my reasons for giving it. Reasons that were actually related to the episode at hand.

It isn't tough.
