Finally caught up with this.

For a musical episode, it was well done. Should they have done it though? Well, I guess so, but only on the basis that it’s almost required of any sci fi/fantasy franchise to do one sooner or later. For me it was no more eye-rollsome than a Dixon Hill holodeck episode or a Wesley-centric story from season 1 or 2. That said, back when Trek was being made for broadcast TV there were more than 20 episodes per season and you could write a handful of them off as filler. When you only get 10-13 episodes per season you hope for a little more out of them.

Meh. Not bad, not good, but won’t be re-watching it at any point.
