Anyway, I guess they can't all be great.

This episode made me feel more like this actor is this version of James T. Kirk and it helped flesh out Noonien-Singh a bit - who is a veritable well of possible interesting story lines. Also I appreciate it when the time travel section of the Federation(?) shows up as I haven't seen it much in movies or on TV. And there really is a rich history (lol) in the Star Trek franchise of temporal **** ups with alternate time lines. I enjoyed it. I mean...I know it's not as good as
Spock's Brain from TOS but what could top that height of artictic expression, right?
