SPOILERS AHOY

301: Spock's Brain 1968 September 20
(First watched 2008-04-18) "His brain is gone!"
So the man's surviving without his brain. Is it REALLY necessary to install a remote-control system to make him walk around?
---
302: The Enterprise Incident
(First watched 2009-04-04) Pretty flagrant aggressive action on the part of the Federation here. Kirk and Spock use subterfuge to steal the cloaking device, but it's perfectly clear who did it. Considering how at odds the Federation and Romulans are, it's surprising this didn't cause some much bigger blowback.

304: The Paradise Syndrome
(First watched 2009-04-08) Hey, finally the "I am Kirok!" episode.
I guess this is as close as Kirk gets to a "The Inner Light" situation, living another life, though it doesn't last for decades as for Picard. So really in that regard it's more like a couple Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis episodes I can think of.
Busy episode for Kirk, though. Becomes a god, medicine man, husband, father-to-be, and widower within the span of one episode.
Was it really such a surprise to Salish that the god Kirok could bleed? I mean, he eats and breathes and behaves in all other ways like a regular person. Why not bleed? Even if he was a god, it would seem he'd taken complete human form in a biological sense.
Spock was talking about the logical choices and all, but he really seemed to blow it by blowing the engines. They had to waste 2 months crawling around. Perhaps with full power they could've used those two months to devise an alternate plan, or go get more help, rather than requiring last-minute use of a Preserver device.
Preservers are an interesting concept. An ancient race that moved life forms around from planet to planet to help things not die off. McCoy says it helps explain why there are so many humanoids around, but not really; it would only help explain why there are humans around on other worlds, or whatever other duplicates.
And featuring... white people as Native Americans!

305: And the Children Shall Lead
(First watched 2009-04-09) I like the goofiness of being able to summon a spirite/energy being/whatever by just replaying the summoning ceremony's audio. I guess we viewers are damned lucky the glowing guy in robes didn't appear for all of us.

307: Spectre of the Gun

308: Day of the Dove

309: For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky 1968 November 8
(First watched 2008-04-29) Meeting a species for the first time, deciding to stay and marrying one, divorcing one and leaving all on the same day? Isn't that a bit fast, Bones?
Having no prior symptoms, discovering you've got a rare condition that gives you one year to live, immediately displaying symptoms, and finding/applying a cure all on the same day? Isn't that a bit fast, Bones?
