this be a truly awful and irritating episode of the original star trek series . off the top of my head and i can only think of one bad episode . the big reason be that the fundamental plot be just annoyingly stupid . it seem that the greek god and apollo and be live out in space on his own planet . when the enterprise come near and he seize it and bring down select crew member to worship him and live like greek hippy . how stupid can you get . they meet apollo in space . that apollo . hello and . be it just me and or be this really dumb . kirk and always the first to kill a god ( see the awful star trek v movie and the val episode for more about this ) and order a sexy crew member to refuse apollo love in order to tick him off even though she really do think the guy be pretty buff and sweet . despite be a star player and i do not think she ever return for a follow up episode too bad . and and once this occurs and they manage to kill off apollo . yeah and right . the less say and the good .
