 I like that this episode predates &quot;redshirts&quot;. &nbsp;The loser crewmen to die in this episode only wore blue or yellow shirts.

+: '''Charlie X''' ''[[]] [[]]''
+(First watched 2008-12-25) &nbsp;17-year old boy makes a funny face to make crazy things happen. &nbsp;Not a problem when giving a gift, but a problem when making people disappear. &nbsp;I feel sorry for the kid, though. &nbsp;This is his first exposure to humans in many years so it's understandable that he's not well-adjusted. &nbsp;But after a few days of bungling things up (and killing some people) he's doomed to go back to the lonely existence with the people who shaped him into this crazy self to begin with.

+: '''Where No Man Has Gone Before''' ''[[]] [[]]''
+(First watched 2008-12-26) &nbsp;This must be the second pilot. &nbsp;Uniforms are different and so is half the cast. &nbsp;Spock is still a bit emotional and smiling at times, even though by this time he's verbally dissing emotion. &nbsp;Boy this show went through a lot of changes early on.
+Aired right after Charlie X, though, it seems like they're hitting the &quot;modified human with superpsychic powers goes power-mad&quot; well pretty heavily.
+Interesting that at least for this episode, they treat ESP like a known and quantifiable fact, with different people having different &quot;esper&quot; ratings.
