 : '''The Omega Glory'''
+(First watched 2009-04-01) &nbsp;A planet with enough parallel development that it had something very like Earth's cold war? &nbsp;Believable. &nbsp;That it was similar enough to create the words Yankee and Communist, and later variations of them? &nbsp;A bit far-fetched. &nbsp;That it produced an exact duplicate of the US Constitution, down to the exact font? &nbsp;Bullshit.
+Also bullshit, the conversation near the end that went something like this.
+Spock: That other captain was clearly wrong to stick his nose in this planet's business, in violation of the Prime Directive. &nbsp;But didn't you just do the same thing?
+Kirk: No, because I'm the good guy.
+The idea of a Starfleet officer going against Starfleet rules and ethics in an attempt to get access to a fountain of youth reminded me of [[Star Trek: Nemesis]].
+I recently said it'd be nice if the captains were more fallible. &nbsp;Well, considering every time Kirk runs into another starship captain they've either gone mad or evil or dead or something, maybe it's a good thing there's at least one successful one?
