Future shock

Who would guess that future Christian Troy would end up looking like Tony Clifton?

Well, that episode could have been a real disaster, but it was alright. It's always a red flag when shows put their leads in old person makeup - see the "Will & Grace" series finale - but I think this worked. And in exchange for this being her last episode, Joely Richardson must have lucked out in getting the future-self that aged the best.

This actually sort of felt like a nice season finale for the show, and made the "on the next" scenes (more Brooke Shields! more organ stealing hooker married to Burt Reynolds lady!) look pretty pedestrian.
