Story: Miri
Written By: Adrian Spies
Series: Star Trek: The Original Series
Year: 1966
I like "Miri". It could've been really bad, anytime you have a lot of kids central to the plot it can go BAD. Luckily "Miri" makes the kids on this planet like an even more degenerate form of the kids in Lord of the Flies. I think it worked.
I think the race against time, the performances from the children and our regular cast, and the set pieces make this one really good episode. I can't bring myself to put it in the all time greats list, but I think it deserves some credit.
