G: 2 stars - Yet another episode in which an implacable force pulls the enterprise slowly into a planet. The kooky inhabitants were mildly amusing and the plot overall didn't contradict itself. The premise could have been quite interesting if they hadn't erased the history of the people they met. Why the antagonist existed and what had happened to create the society they encountered would have been much more interesting to find out. Basically I wanted more archeology and sociology.
Favourite lines: Kirk "We come in peace", kooky inhabitant "You struck me?".
C: 2 stars - weak ending banter, borderline episode between 2 and 3. Pacing was good, and I did want to find out what happened. It was just disappointing that it finished in the same way as "Who Mourns for Adonais " did.
