Several members of the crew get hooked on a new holodeck story.
This is an enjoyable episode with good self-referential humour.
There is an amusing story that is fun to see play out on the holodeck and it generates humour, particularly when you hear characters arguing over plot lines. I imagine the writers of the episode had great fun parodying the creative process they do for a living.
I think you need to be relaxed about one aspect of the story that, for the sake of raising the stakes, goes a bit ridiculous at about the half hour mark. If you take Trek seriously then this might be a problem. Personally, I like the character Seska, particularly when she's being a baddie so it's pretty fun to me.
All performances are entertaining, especially Tim Russ, Robert Duncan McNeill and Martha Hackett.
