The 3rd season certainly gets a bad rap and it is overall the weakest, but there were still some good ones in there (The Enterprise Incident, The Paradise Syndrome, Day of the Dove come to mind). I figured that they did Catspaw simply to coincide with Halloween :). Jon #28 – I guess that’s why we’re not seeing any 3rd season episodes yet :) .

We know why Kirk's bridge was so colorful (Color Television was New). But within the Trek Universe itself? History shows us that after the American Civil War, people now hated the shades of Blue and Gray forced upon them. Post War years saw a popular explosion in bright colors across the board in clothing and other items. A similar analogy could possibly be constructed for explaining the colors of Kirk's Enterprise. Some sort of post- event, social or cultural exchange, etc. #38 TomBot2006

More certain, Spock mentions The Keeper. I love the peek at a possible "past" crew of Enterprise, and yah, it's quite, whitebread, is the way I'd put it. I totally hate the lack of color on the bridge set decor as well, it's a tad too monochromatic. Still, gotta love that green Orion slave girl. :-) I believe that Spock also refers to “The Keeper” during one of the courtroom scenes, and maybe even by Kirk during a Captain’s Log entry?

Wow some interesting thoughts and ideas brought up on this episode. Oh yes I dig the writing of Dennis. I have been following this gentleman on the very cool Exeter boards. Funny I picture him looking a bit like Patrick Stewart with the humorus Picard avatar he has there. The association is just too strong in my mind.;) Great reviews by Mr. Bailey. Keep up the great work here, on Exeter and where ever you might be in this crazy Trek Cyberverse of ours.;) Rickout Man I just wished I could of seen the episodes.

I don't think the flag was changed, there are just two flags. Both the ones you posted. I looked at a screencap from trekcore and the flag that looks like it has the insignia is there and the other flag off to the other side. Unless it changed within the ep and they fixed it then it looks like the same one. #32. I don’t think the flag was changed, there are just two flags. Both the ones you posted.

PIKE: "Is the keeper actually communicating with one of his animals?" Pike conceives his situation as being like a caged animal in a zoo, and the #1 Butthead is therefore the "zoo keeper."
