YESSSSS! (You wouldn't know it listening to (in my case, reading) the commentary track by the writer and director of the episode. ) I don't lists of favorite eps but if I had to it would be right there in the top somewhere.

I was just looking at screencaps for Earshot and NA and there's a surprising amount of parallels in just the visuals; I plan to have a little fun with it of the pseudo picspammy kind.
