Jack's Review
While the people from the past being revived in the future has been done, this one really worked well. It also held a bit of a pang of sadness as David Graf, who passed away too soon, makes an appearance in this episode (Police Academy's Tackleberry). Kate Mulgrew and Robert Beltran show off the trust and friendship their characters are developing in a very emotional scene. I would like to have seen two pivotal parts of the episode which are oddly skipped - seeing Janeway address the crew and seeing the new human cities. Overall it is still a great episode.

Jack's Review
This episode is very interesting. We get to see inside the minds of many of the main character's minds, which is a great way to add depth to a character. The fact that we are left to imagine Neelix's plight makes him more enigmatic. Additionally we are introduced to a new villain as well.

Jack's Review
This is one of the best Star Trek episodes across all of the 5 series! Not only do we get to meet a new Q, but we also get to see the original John De Lancie Q in top form....and a brief visit to Voyager of my all-time favorite Trek character, Commander William T. Riker! This story has a great moral message and the tough choices Janeway has to make are amazing. I can't wait for more Q in the Voyager storyline.

Excellent acting by the crew - specifically Tim Russ - but overall the episode was very average.
