"The Road Less Travelled" is one of the lesser episodes of the second season, though I can't quite put my finger on why it is. I don't find it interesting, and it could be that Cliff DeYoung is the problem. He's just not a strong enough actor for this type of role, and his performance doesn't carry the show. As basically a one-man play, the actor in the lead needs to be a strong presence, and DeYoung is a pleasant, nice-looking guy but is not a commanding personality. He's better when acting as the disabled vet, but he's just too blah as the husband.

Once again, the special effects are great. Seeing his daughter's bedroom as a hut in Vietnam was a brilliant idea, and the lighting is also evocative.
