The Enterprise becomes “involved” in a war between two planets fought using only computers, where “casualties” off themselves in disintegration chambers. I like this one quite a bit, although it could have been better and there are some VERY cheezy moments.
Highlights:
The general premise
phasers derived from the Latin
Anan 7’s performance
the female co-guest star playing devoted and sweet before she played cruel and vicious in a later episode
multi-legged creature?
Lowlights:
Ambassador Fox’s OVERACTING and accompanying DRAMATIC MUSIC!
somewhat clumsy execution of a brilliant premise
out-of-character McCoy
Spockism: “I do NOT approve. I understand.” (as emphatic as possible for Spock)
