Story: The Deadly Years
Written By: David P. Harmon
Series: Star Trek: The Original Series
Year: 1967
Many of the Star Trek crew is afflicted with rapid aging that affected some scientists on a planet they visited. It’s a pretty lame episode. I can’t get into any story about people aging too fast…it just isn’t that interesting to me. That’s odd too, because I am actually quite interested in the aging process in real life, but I think I just prefer the natural course.
Anyhow of course some crisis shows up and Kirk needs to take control but his aged mind is moving to slow…blah blah blah. Its just a weak episode in my mind, I don’t think the jokes work and the make up looks really bad.
NEXT TIME: Return of Harry Mudd
