Re: VOY S2: Projections
As a non-US-citizen fan of Trek, who is watching this episode for the first time in 2020, I am quite amazed by all the comments.
I didn't know about UPN, about its viewership, etc. Reading how the commenters attributed certain features of this show to the channel on which it was broadcast is fascinating.
Yet, there is another feeling I got. It looks like (I might be wrong) some of the commenters who gave low ratings are Voyager fans, who are complaining about why the episode does not further the "quest" to reach the Alpha Quadrant.
It might be so. But as a person who does not really care about that "quest", but more about what Star Trek tries to talk about the human quest of searching meaning in life, I think it was an excellent Trek episode.
Obviously people's reasons for watching ST are varied (which is healthy for the show), but it is good to see that VOY offers some beef also to people like me, who don't really care whether they reach the Alpha Quadrant or not. It is the personal voyages that count.

Re: TNG S6: Tapestry
Those who are complaining that Picard was already a driven man before the stabbing event are assuming that (1) this is not a dream, and (2) Q is actually running the time forwards in a fair manner for Picard.
I think it is quite possible that Picard was simply hallucinating/dreaming as his body was fighting to keep alive. And if Q were really involved, he is a mischievous teacher; he could have rigged 'cautious' Picard's life just to remind him his youth. Q clearly prefers the brash young Picard.

Re: DS9 S6: Waltz
This is the first episode in which I finally got what people where complaining about the acting by Avery Brooks. Up until watching this episode, I had not thought that he was over-acting, but parts of his acting felt really irritating this time.
