I loved this episode simply because it was so creative. The first time I saw it, it blew me away to see what each crew member devolved into. Data and the Captain in the darkened ship...very cool. I had goose bumps over the sounds...
My only question was why earthlings could be different from one another. A spider and a cave man? Probably should have brought in a few aliens to turn into some different species. And the reviewer wondering why more were not eating/eaten bugged me too...again some aliens could have picked up the slack. But then they kind of explained a bit? All in all, it was exciting, crazy and unlike the hundreds of other episodes of the franchise. Give it a break--such overly critical thinking only restricts imagination and chance- taking.
Regarding Paramount's dirty decision to cancel TNG to maximize immediate profit, those persons should be named and blamed for their poor judgment--we fans will pay the price forever, missing more exceptional episodes of one of the best shows ever. Their bonuses are spent by now, yet we are still watching this fantastic series all these years later. Let them serve as a warning to other selfish suits by making their names live in infamy.
