| 1 | * {{Blooper}}: In the script and on some of the display graphics seen in the episode, the starship is spelled USS ''Brattain'' (WordOfGod says it's named after Walter Houser Brattain, the inventor of the transistor). But on the studio model, it's spelled ''Brittain''. |
| 2 | * CreatorBacklash: Many of the cast and crew regarded this as the worst episode of Season 4 and among the worst episodes of TNG overall. |
| 3 | ** Creator/JonathanFrakes remarked: |
| 4 | --->That was a yawner, wasn't it? That was a shitty piece of special effects work when Troi was flying with those cloud[s] around her. That was below our standard. |
| 5 | ** Marina Sirtis opined: |
| 6 | --->I liked the storyline of that episode because it was about the dreamworld, and I'm of Greek descent so I totally believe dreams mean something. And not the Freudian thing, all this hocus pocus. So that was another one that I could relate to really strongly. But I did hate the flying. |
| 7 | ** Michael Piller concluded: |
| 8 | --->[I]t was the first show right after Christmas hiatus and I don't think everybody was quite back on their feet yet. As a result, the energy level was way down and the timing was off and the nature of the problem made everybody start reading slowly... The bottom line was that it was no longer a script because they were dream deprived. They were all talking slowly and after a while that gets pretty boring, and the middle of that show sagged and was slow, boring and disappointing. |
| 9 | ** Director Les Landau blocked this episode out and prefers not to discuss it, for reasons he won't elaborate. It had something to do with Troi floating in space. |
| 10 | * PropRecycling: The USS ''Brattain'' is a reuse of the Miranda-class USS ''Reliant'' model from ''Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan''. |
| 11 | * RecycledScript: The ''Enterprise'' crew unknowingly losing their sanity, complete with a brawl in Ten-Foward. Are we talking about this episode or season 3's "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS3E23Sarek Sarek]]"? Some fans even mistakenly think the scene with Guinan firing her rifle came from "Sarek". |
