TOS The Deadly Years -- Review

G: 3 stars - A silly idea done reasonably well. The resolution was good but the conflict in the middle took too long and was, again, kind of stupid, or at least stupidly carried out. Some great zinger lines, Chekhov shines here as comic relief.

C: 3.5 stars  - It was an interesting problem, I largely enjoyed it. The tribunal scene was tedious, especially given previous precedent which occurred differently. This could have been a four with better editing.

We both wanted the tribunal scene cut and more of the science plot or naval tactics to be fleshed out.
 

Plot Summary: The command crew have all contracted aging sickness, and must race against time to find a cure.
