February 23, 1968: on the day of my first birthday, Star Trek episode “By Any Other Name” premiered.
Beings from the Andromeda Galaxy steal the Enterprise, technically modify it, and attempt to return home.
Lots to like in this episode, like the Doc from Forbidden Planet as Rojan, and his, er, partner(?) Kalinda.
Best line from this episode?
“It’s green.”
One of Mr. Scott’s finest moments.
