There. You see what I mean about subjectivity? James, I think you and I
look for different things in an episode. I used to think (naively) that
everyone saw what I did when watching the show. But being a member of this
list has opened my eyes. It's still amazing to me that there are people out
there that watched the show for the HARDWARE!!!! Nutty. With all those
nice--- um, people--- to watch? *grin*
Do you think these eps have the same

Timelash is fun because of the time travel angle. Otherwise, no. They
tried too hard to make Straker into the mighty man in charge, which was
stupid. We already knew he was. But for viewing pleasure, it is very
enjoyable to see over and over.
