slazer2au,
mosiacmango, (edited ) At least the kid can actually act.
The worst part of the episode is that it’s not a bad one. Its just that the trope of “main character becomes a kid again” in scifi is so incredibly tired that no one cares if it’s done passable or not.

What are some other examples?
Lemming421, 
Star Trek TNG comes to mind immediately. I’ll edit if I think of more. Did any of the superhero shows do it?
essell, Muppet Babies?

i don’t necessarily think these are bad stories, but it does feel like a fall back idea from a list of writing prompts and not truly original.
slazer2au, I have no issues with that episode I rather enjoyed it
BallsandBayonets, I actually think it’s one of the lesser used tropes; a far more often used trope is groundhog day and that episode is absolute gold.
