Though I called this TV-Movie disrespectly "Star Trek Version of Little Women" because of its actors William Shatner (usually James T. Kirk) and John de Lancie (Q in Star Trek) I really liked it a lot when I saw it. I even had the strong feeling that many ideas for scenes from the 1994 movie with Wynona Ryder originated from this TV-movie...

This movie was shown on a french TV Station in two parts, unfortunately I could only tape the second part *sigh*
