this beautifully film and script episode be let down for two reason . 1 ) perhaps it be the morality of the 1950s talk and but no man leave alone on an asteroid for year would react with such hysterical negativity to the gift of a female android . 2 ) it wasn not an android at all and but a woman and the beautiful jean marsh . the popularity of the sex doll industry in the come decade could have trace it origin back to this episode if they would do it properly . in fact and the modernization of sex bot be in the news a i speak . robot be not new to movie or television when this episode be make and so they could have at least have her act like one . her fleshiness would then have add a creepy element . instead and it become a nice little love story about two human on faraway star . the twilight zone always stretch the imagination and credulity . normally no one care . but this episode seem hamstrung by a calvinist morality eschew what would have amount to masturbation with a machine and or downright carelessness .
