I liked it better than the "Doc singing Opera" ep !! That one SUCKED ...
This one wasn't too bad, but let me tell ya, if they NEVER EVER do another Fair Haven Ep ... I wouldn't miss it .. Quite frankly, the first one was enough ...
Let's get back to space exploration, and cut the crap!

I liked it, but not as much as the first Fair Haven ep (Paris could've acted with a bit more sense). I didn't think the villagers became sentient; they just reacted when they see others turn into cows and disappear into thin air. I read The Crucible last year, and they weren't really exaggerating that witch-burning stuff. Plus I have a soft spot for Michael Sullivan.

Ziyal: That's the point. Holodeck characters are programmed to ignore anything that isn't normal to the program. If this programming is damaged and they start noticing things (arches and such), they're pretty much self-aware, i.e. sentient.

Someone should really program Holodecks so that caracters and events can't damage them. Remember the holographic explosives in "The killing game" and now holographic bullets destroying a computer panel .
And let's not mention the ridiculous four-decks high holodeck in the former... >

Oh, yes... I'd forgotten the shotgun that can blast computer consoles. Even w/ the safeties off, the holograms should only be able to affect the people in the holodeck. Anyone who would design a holodeck that is capable of damaging itself is just stupid. Same goes for any writer who would write a story in which this happens. :-)

Therein lies the problem with Trek today.(the show, not the zine )The writer don't pay attention to what they are writing, or worse, they don't care.
