I noticed this last weekend -- better airtime, it's a good thing. If you are using a DVR be sure to reset your timer and catch the repeat this Saturday morning (4:00am I believe -- my 6:00). #61

If someone wants to see and episode that demonstrates why anyone who had to choose between Picard, Janeway,Sisko or Archer, would still choose Kirk as the Ideal Starship Captain, this is it. Being a very early episode it really cemented the Character of Kirk. Here Shatner portrays Kirk as a very strong Leader, vulnerable, but sure. He's no martinet thou and when faced with an opportunity to finish an opponent off this Captain will risk it all to preserve life, thou it be Alien Life, but still Life. This episode along with Arena demonstated in the 60's that this was not going to be standard Scifi Fare. It still holds up today as a riviting piece of drama. The added effects enhance the Story and are not too showy. Great Job This has always been one of my Favorite Episodes.

The turbolift is well within the space between the inner bridge wall and the outer wall. Just like the bathroom and equipment access areas. I see the bridge as facing STRAIGHT AHEAD as I always thought it did, and feels natural doing. The turbolift we see on the side moves into place after coming up the shaft. Side turbo access, not in the back in the area everyone is focusing on. I don't see a problem, hence I don't worry about it. Great episode and awesome effect updates. -Diabolik I for one, even when a kid, NEVER thought that the space between the bridge we see and the outer wall was so thin that the turbolift shaft had to be inside that visible protuberance.

It's called a 'mistake.'" The Franz Joseph blueprints do indeed show the bridge rotated a few degrees off center to account for the elevator placement, for anyone who's soothed by that idea...
