[QUOTE="Orius, post: 2192253, member: 8863"] I was looking forward to this episode. The mirror universe episodes are all pretty good, and fun to watch, so I had high expectations for this one. I wasn't disappointed. This episode ROCKED. I knew when they showed clips from First Contact, that it was the mirror universe we were seeing. Great touch having Zephram Cochran blow away that Vulcan. I wonder...did this Cochran have the help of the NG crew? Or maybe he [b]didn't[/b], and the post WWIII attitudes of Earth is what led to his rather violent response. Food for thought. I liked the changed opening sequence. Instead of mankind's achivements of exploration, we see mankind's victories of war and conquest. Porthos was a mean rottweiler instead of a little beagle. Phlox and Reed invent the agonizer. Phlox was great as a mad scientist. They did a great job on the Tholian too. And of course there was the TOS Defiant. They did a great job rebuiling the original bridge set, got all the details right, and the sound effects. They even had that little scope that comes out of the helm. Reed's reaction when they pick up that TOS phaser. He was practically drooling over it. :) The Tholian web in this episode went up a helluva lot faster than the one in "The Tholian Web". I can't wait until next week. [/QUOTE]
