This episode's story came from DC Fontana and the script was written by John Meredyth Lucas, both of them experienced Trek writers, so it's really bizarre how much the writing just doesn't get Spock at all, portraying him as utterly insufferable in insisting on perfect logic at all times, and seeming totally unfamiliar with the concept of metaphor and exaggeration. It's actually a lot closer to what we'd later get with Data in TNG.

Always loved this one. Unfortunately, that's that last of the high points of season 3 for me :(

When you said that you were hoping that this episode would be something that would perk you up some, give you some energy, something to be excited about, my initial reaction was, “Well, given Sulu has some time in the limelight this episode, I would wager that should brighten thing’s up for you some.” It would appear I was proven right seeing your delightful reaction to hearing Sulu was going to be part of the survey party beaming down. The way you sounded so excited, and your eyes just lit up, that was great, Jess; that was really great. Answering your question about the doctors, offhand, I don’t recall any doctors in the original Star Trek era other than Bones on the Enterprise, though it does make sense there would be other doctors. Yeah, overall, an intriguing and engaging episode. I love Lee Meriwether, dear Catwoman, as Losira. It makes me wonder if someone in the casting was a big fan of Batman. I knew you’d comment on her eye-makeup. I’ve heard jokes about that comparing it to Tammy Faye Baker, which is a fair description. I LOVED it when you got so protective of Sulu in the scene where Losira tried to touch Sulu, thus putting Sulu in peril. It was perhaps my favorite part of the reaction. When you were telling Sulu, “Shoot her.” it made me laugh, particularly as it made me think of Muldoon in Jurassic Park, yelling, “Shoot her!! SHOOOOOT!!! HER!!!” Fortunately, Sulu stands his ground, and yes, good that Sulu doesn’t die. He received some very big boo-boos, sure, but he can’t die, because hey, let’s face it, he is too iconic. As I see Ryan commented, it’s weird how Spock comes across as being more like Data in this episode, and again, as Ryan noted, this episode was written by experienced Star Trek writers, making Spock’s characterization in this episode odder still. The part about it that bugs me some is that it’s happening in a season three episode. Say this episode was written early in season one, or took place prior to the first season, I wouldn’t be bothered all that much. As it is, you seemed unbothered by it, which I thought was nice to see. Yeah, Scotty was terrific in this episode doing the work. I loved your post-episode comments on Scotty. I'm with you on having a neuralyzer erase the one bit of uncomfortable characterization that Scotty had in the one episode with John Fiedler. A good resolution to the episode. I had a laugh at your suggestion about how the crew could have combated Losira, as yes, using the old shell game, that would have been a most efficacious strategy. I really liked how the ending was on the sadder side, and I said, “Kind of bleak. Love that.” All in all, a most fun reaction that I enjoyed, again, particularly for how much you loved that we got the Sulu content that we did. That just made me so happy, Jess. Thanks for the fun reaction.

I used to watch Star Trek with Dad on Wpix 11 out of New York, NY. He was a teacher so he'd usually fall asleep correcting papers. They promoted the heck out of TNG when it first premiered a special 2 hour movie presentation. Then kept seeing Brent Spiners guest spots on Night Court and Jonathan Frakes on North and South. Gates Macfadden hanging out with muppets.

Did anyone else have to deal with the snowy screen from their tv antenna signal when they first watched Star Trek?

The tuning dial on our tv broken so it made it difficult to clear up the picture sometimes
