StarTrek01.30–The City on the Edge of Forever

In this episode: 

An analysis of The City on the Edge of Forever:

• How the episode still lives up to the hype five decades later

• Edith Keillor voices Star Trek’s Mission Statement, and is a stand in for all Star Trek fans
• A comparison with Ellison’s script–the good, the bad and the ugly–especially Keillor, whom Ellison wrote as a Pentecostal evangelical crossed with L. Ron Hubbard. Hint: the filmed version is better.
