Featured review
Worst episode of the series
In season 5 the writers really phoned everything in. They had 3 part stories dealing with history where the ending really made no sense like in the Lee Harvey Oswald. They had lots of things that were inconsistent with the rest of the series, like leaping just happening at random regardless of success or not. And then you had strange things like the evil leaper and this episode. This episode rehashes the previously most unpleasant episode of the show and makes it even more unpleasant by introducing the evil leaper into it and all the consequences from that. It becomes completely warped, extremely unpleasant to watch and a complete endurance. One of those episodes to watch once because it exists and then never again. I really don't know what the writers were thinking. They were resting on their laurels a little too much at this point.
