Catspaw (2x7) October 27,1967
A slightly goofy Halloween themed episode. Eerie voices coming from Dead (Red Shirt) crewman,black cats,strange castles.
I,Mudd (2x8) November 3,1967
The return of Harry Mudd, the episode forever memorable because of the Portrait of his wife that when activated in a shrill voice "Harcourt Fenton Mudd ....."
Metamorphosis (2x9) November 10,1967
Another one of the better high concept episodes of the series. Commissioner Nancy Hedford is being taken to Epsilon Canaris III where she will be a part of treaty negotiations. Some enegry force makes the shuttle crash. The Crew meets Zeframe Cochrane who developed the first warp drive. Cochrane is only person on the planet and his needs are taken care of by the energy mass.
Commissioner Hedford takes deadly ill, eventually the mass takes over her body. Cochrane and Hedford decide to stay on the planet. This is a sweet and romantic episode,a love story is about the only plot the line the show stayed away from and it is handled very well.The episode is one of the high marks of the series. The writing is smart,the acting first rate, it is about as close to a perfect episode as you are likely to find.
Note: at this point I began to wonder why wasn't I blogging this, I realized I was going to watch all the series and movies in order. I began to write this blog wondering when I would catch up and be live blogging .Until then I wrote notes.
Journey to Babel (2x10) November 17,1967
In which Spock has Daddy Issues. Here we met Sarak,a character that Mark Lenard played for years on more than one series.
Friday's Child (2x11) December 1,1967
An Interesting episode as it very McCoy centric. One of the McCoy lines "I'm a Doctor,not as escalator" as the landing party and a pregnant Julie Newmar are chased by the bad guys.One of the scenes that I doubt get past censors today is when McCoy slaps Julie Newmar,all is well as she names the baby after him.
The Deadly Years (2x12) December 8,1967
The Crew age, great make up work. Otherwise Romulan Neutral Zone, Corbomite bluff and trivia alert Kirk mentions he is 34 at one point. I don't have enough time in the day to figure out the star date and see how old he is in the movies. But He is 34 at stardate whatever ...
