My biggest PT gripe has been that they'd just drop PT versions of RT characters in, without thinking of whether it was possible for them to be there. PT was supposed to be about different choices characters made... I always thought, then I guess Quentin decided to be born in the 20th century.
Quentin and Angelique could have been descendants of "our" Q and A, but since they don't address this, we might take that as evidence that they didn't care or didn't think about it. Then again, DS is full of instances where it's left to the viewer to figure things out.
I think the biggest problem with PT and some other storylines was that they were concerned with the impact that something would make onscreen that day, and sense and fitting it into a larger story were considered irrelevant. Look, another Quentin! Look, another Angelique!
I agree that if you as a viewer are actually taken to a parallel universe, we should be able to expect more than Rebecca and Jeckyl and Hyde redone. I'm now listening to the novel "Rebecca", so I'll probably have fresh complaints about PT later...
