Platos Stepchildren (TOS S03E10)

March 23, 2018

The Enterprise responds to an distress signal from a planet that seems to have no life forms. The planet is full of a substance that contains a long lasting power. Kirk, Spock and McCoy are greeted by some straight ancient Greek-like people and McCoy is asked to help an injured old man.

Notes

Another alternate-Earth type episode.

"Pyscho-kinetic" powers.

The people are more than 2,000 years old, but look 30.

This episode is quite embarrassing. What Shatner and Nimoy had to do for the episode... Ugh.

Torture porn. Ugh.

I'll never get those 50 minute back. This was a terrible filler episode. Not worth the time spent watching it.
