This is a fun episode, but there's some stupid stuff. Like in originally determining that they must keep Captain Christopher around, Spock just looks up whether he was important to history. Neglecting to check his further descendants was a bad mistake. Thinking that just having a UFO disappear an Air Force dude rather than him finishing his natural life of interaction with countless others won't affect things is an even worse one. | This is a fun episode, but there's some stupid stuff.

Then the bit at the end, where their little time reverse before heading to the far future seems to erase their previous presence... that just doesn't make sense. Following that rule, wouldn't they have wiped out more of their own earlier existence while zipping forward a few hundred years? | Then the bit at the end, where their little time reverse before heading to the far future seems to erase their previous presence... that just doesn't make sense.

120: '''Court-Martial''' ''[[1967]] [[February 2]]'' | |||
(First watched 2009-02-19) Even if Kirk doesn't raise any objections, isn't it a Bad Idea to have an old fling be the prosecution in his trial? | |||
And even if the footage of Kirk hitting the "jettison pod" button early ended up being faked... isn't it pretty fucking awful design to have the main three buttons on your captain's chair be "Red Alert", "Yellow Alert", and "Jettison Pod"? | |||
Usually I don't notice such things, but Shatner's fight double in this episode was a pretty bad substitute. He had a different hair color and beard stubble. | |||
Really, though, an episode that's all about the people. With a bit of tech change, I could see this one taking place in a modern setting. | |||
