Glad someone is still interested. I'm somewhat disappointed with the response to Space Seed - but I'm at least going to soldier on through the end of Season 1.


I fell behind because I've been slammed at work and my free TV time on the weekend is mostly devoted to football at this time of year you understand.

Anyway, just watched Space Seed. Another great episode I haven't seen in a while. It is a pretty dark episode. Kind of an interesting that you have Star Trek which overall shows a kind of Utopian type of future but in this talks of a bleak dystopian "future past". It also touches on the Frankenstein warning of tampering with nature. Eugenics was a fashionable idea among progressives in the late 19th and early 20th century that was discredited after WWII. The one thing missing from this episode is Chekov

Chekov didn't come in until the second season. A glitch in TWOK, and canon is silent about the encounter. However, it must be assumed there was an off-screen encounter between a newly assigned Ensign Chekov and Khan. Walter Koenig jokes that Chekov made Khan wait a long time to use the bathroom.
