Star Trek 2x02 Metamorphosis

The Companion NEEDS the Man.

The Man NEEDS the Companion.

just wait, it gets better :smiley:

Every story is a Love Story.

and now the commissioner lady is crying about never having been loved, but having been good at her job?

this hurts

If I recall correctly, there may be some cooking going on later.

Yes, this big-sorryBarb picture is so ossim it bears repeating!!

That it does, that it does.

mmm, unsavory compromises… :stuck_out_tongue:

And sewing.

Make it Sew!!

lol…

that is WRONG.

“The Man is the Center of All Things.”
Would a T-Shirt with that phrase be out of date now-a-days?

This episode works for me.
I was too young when I first saw it to get the blatant sexism, so it worked for me.
Not a lot of physical action, but good sci fi IMO.

The concept isn’t a bad one. You know the execution that doesn’t work for me.

Spock the happy fun guy.

It’s blatently sexist now, in retrospect, in the light of changes and our evolved consciousness, but not so much then. It’s sweet, in a 60’s sort of way.

I can’t escape the bias of when I saw it the first time.
I guess I made up my mind long ago which episodes I bought into and which I didn’t. (Most of 'em I did).

So, commissioner is dying and lets the companion be half of her body, and so Zephran stays? Blech.
(it’s like Little Mermaid, no?)

it’s why we love him hehe

Agreed.

And, let’s me honest. A woman ambassador was a pretty forward thinking idea for the time I guess.

There are no new stories under the sun.
