(27,517 posts)I followed the Wikipedia link to that episode, and nothing about it seems even remotely familiar. Over the years, I should have seen it at least once. Ill have see if I remember by watching again. I think I would have remembered if Id watched the pilot episode, but I think I came in after a couple had already aired.

Sorry, this is my second Star Trek rant today in this forum

I could explain to you all about the five broadcast series and offer deep analysis on why I have the opinion on each that I do, but you had me at "I'm not Star Trek fan."
You have a good one as well.
