Subjective Rating: 7/10 (Good, ). Some very dodgy writing, especially where anything having to do with science is concerned, but not quite bad enough to make me dislike it. It gets some Iconic Star Trek Moment credit for being the first episode in which they talk a computer into exploding.
Objective Rating (Average):
