It's like TOS' The Deadly Years. Another episode that explores a concept that I just don't buy and that is hard to execute: make-up is hard to get right and – as we have already found out in TNG's first season episode Too short a Season – it' difficult to play old people. It's also an episode about DNA manipulation. That's at least a relevant issue and bumps up the ranking a bit. Overall, it's another medicore episode, because that's a recycled theme from the classic Star Trek canon w/o adding anything of substance. On one hand the solution to the problem is sci-fi at its best, on the other hand it's so far-fetched that it ruins the ending. If they could do this, you just need a sample of your "younger self" and you can "transport your youth back"?
Am I now supposed to like Pulaski? I still don't like her. Some say she's a strong and brave woman with an opinion. I say: she's a social nightmare and deserves not be liked. Especially Data should hate her if he were capable to.
