This episode is so important to future events in the TNG world. I'm just waiting for season 5 where the best Star Trek episode of all time resides.

Andrew Ramos

I haven't watched them, I'll have to ask Kat and see if she has! -Paula

Time Lord

yeah, as a kid I can see feeling like this was a really fun and even exciting episode. As a grown up it's mostly just scholcky fun (imo, anyway). But I'm also a sucker for all the holodeck episodes. I just really like them and how they mix things up -Paula

Time Lord

oh gosh, what a question... let me think about this and then ask Kat about it the next time we record! -Paula

Time Lord

Thanks, Jared! -Paula

Time Lord

hahahaha -Paula

Time Lord

you're so right about the second half of the season. Things are really getting good now -Paula

Time Lord

aw, yay, that's what we're after! -Paula

This episode is just meh, only 2 good things: 1. Data playing craps, 2. Worf : "we call it Theta 8." LOL

Does What It Do

TOS had so many episodes that were easy to shoot on a shoestring budget because they'd just use existing back lots at the studio.

Jarrod Wild

I'll be honest. I enjoy revisiting these less "epic" episodes and always have fun with your reactions, but I'm just biding my time for specific episode(s) this season and for Season 3 to get started. Season 1 was bronze, 2 is silver, but 3 is when you start hitting the gold. And I'm incredibly anxious to see your reaction to *that* season 3 episode. Really, as good as it's been this season, with few exceptions, it's only going to get better. "The suspense is terrible. I hope it lasts!"

it's almost like it's the hotel royale with cheese

Gallifrey Gals, have you seen any of the CW DC Comics shows (known as the Arrowverse)? I would LOVE to see you react to them. In the Q&A video, Kat said she'd enjoy seeing Doctor Who's Rory on the Enterprise. If you watch the Arrowverse you'll get kind of close to it. And I think you'd really like the shows.

Funny thing is I was discussing this episode with my friend Richie I hadn’t seen it since I was about twelve and I had a very rose tinted view of it and he was telling me it was awful, rewatching it I realised it wasn’t as good as I remember but it’s still fun and I still like it, but it was the astronauts name that got me steve Richie my name and my friends together lol

Steven morgan

What novel would you love/hate to be stuck in? One book only, no series!

ALFONSO SMITH III

This is not an episode I ever think much about. It's fluff. But it was fun watching it with you gals.

Jared Abrahamson

The Royale. Trekkies check in, but they don't check out. About Troi only sensing Riker, it makes sense. Data wouldn't have emotions to sense and Worf - well, he always just wants to shoot something, so that doesn't really change. ;)

John

City on the Edge of Forever would be an excellent example of TOS.

John

After the adventure Texas turns mournfully to the camera, "I ain't a creep, I'm just written that way." I have a fondness for this episode. Sure its troubled inception shows but its so packed with little moments and that surreal opening that I can't find it in my heart to dislike it. When they beam down to that planet and just see that antique revolving door spinning there... memorable stuff. Random thoughts: 1: I love that Deanna Troi just straight up checks out of the mission. "Yeah, good luck with this one." 2: Michael Dorn is incapable of a bad line reading. I want that written on my headstone. Everything he does is low-key gold. 3: Do you think they ever do April's Fool on each other with the transporter beam and holodeck? I mean, the temptation must be there to troll an away team on that splendid day of covert japes. Finally I like to imagine Picard's Captain's Log on this one, and Star-Fleet's reaction when he emails it them... Picard, Jean-Luc Capt. RE: Captain's Log Star Date 425-26.4 'Today our away team led by Commander Riker beamed down to an inhospitable planet with this casino that kept repeating the plot of this really bad pulp novel over and over. There was this dead NASA astronaut and my team only escaped an eternity of tropey horror because our android Data is really good at gambling. There was a minor malfunction in turbolift 2.' Admiral McScowl, Crusty Re: Captain's Log Star Date 425-26.4 'Picard I have warned you before about taking the piss with these made up Captain's Logs. First there's this God-like being who makes you fight Napoleonic battles against alien pig-men, then you somehow have the ship taken hostage by Moriarty from Sherlock Holmes, now this. You are courting a disciplinary hearing, sir.'

Peter Evans

The way this episode was changed in rewrites reminds me of an episode of the original Star Trek series called 'The City on the Edge of Forever'. I won't say anything about the plot in case you decide to watch it at some point. I'll just say that the writer (Harlan Ellison) had a vision for it that would have been far too expensive to shoot, so it had to be toned way down in rewrites. The end result was an episode that's generally considered one of the greatest Star Trek episodes ever made. So rewrites can definitely be good sometimes. But yeah... From the writer's perspective, it probably doesn't feel good to have your story heavily altered. Anyway, I have a soft spot for this episode. It's a nice diversion with some funny moments, and I thought the scene in the astronaut's room provided just the somber touch that the otherwise goofy episode needed. Also, Picard's sigh after reading the first line of the book was comedy gold.

Jeff Seely

This one feels a little like one of those surreal 'people living in a sort of clichéd fantasy world' that cropped up a few times in TOS - particularly in the third season.

Ian Smith

Certainly a strange episode in terms of enjoyment. I kinda like it, or at least I don't dislike it. I'd have preferred for the solution to be a bit more involved than just the "Android is god at gambling/probability" (though tbf, that wasn't as much of a trope back when this episode was written). Either way, on rewatches this isn't an episode I look forward to but its also not an episode I'm like "skip!" on. Well we now enter the back half of season 2 and its time for the show to really find its feet in some of the upcoming episodes. Looking forward to it :)

Deagor

I have to admit, every time I'd watched this episode before, It was a eye-rolling experience at the hamminess and schlock writing. But your reactions made it much more fun, and I enjoyed it a lot!

Firefly24601

This story plays out like it belongs on the Twilight Zone or Outer Limits then it does Star Trek, with that kicker ending. A bit of a clunker but still with some fun moments......I recognize the actor who was the Texan from the Robin Williams film "Good Morning, Vietnam. IMO. he has the best line in the film. Love that Katrina mentioned my comment on an earlier video about her closet full of 24th Century clothes. It made my day. :-)

Bruce Bromley

Helluva book review. "This book is so bad I can't wait to die." LOL!

Firefly24601

So not like the original story that after all the rewrites by others the original writer used a pseudonym in the credits.... I have to stop writing these before the episode is oer. I repeated exactly what Paula said at the end. :-)

Bruce Bromley

This is one of those "so bad it's good" episodes to me, very memorable.
