I wanted to write a brief review to even things out a bit. I cannot understand why this episode is so popular. I found it quite unremarkable. I can only think that Joan Collins' presence in the line up is the cause of all the fuss. Spock and Kirk spend most of the episode dressed up as 1930s homeless American laborers. Is this really what Star Trek the original series is all about? Is this really 'the best'? I don't think so. I can think of many episodes that were far more enjoyable. The thrust of the story is that peace movements are bad for world peace. Yawn!
