Volume 33 of the Star Trek DVD series contains two of the third season’s flawed yet decent episodes. Both episodes suffer from Star Trek’s third season syndrome but nonetheless are classics.
FOR THE WORLD IS HOLLOW AND I HAVE TOUCHED THE SKY finds Kirk, Spock and McCoy venturing to the Yonada planet (which is really a space ship on a collision course with an asteroid). The oracle which is a relentless computer controls the ship and it must be stopped to save the good people of Yonada. Meanwhile McCoy discovers he’s suffering from a disease and only has a year to live. Upon arrival on Yonada, McCoy meets up with Natira (Kate Woodville) and falls in love. This episode marks the first time McCoy ever brushed with romance really. You would think it would be more of a landmark episode but it isn’t really. Mainly cause this plot was done before and way better on THE PARADISE SYNDROME. A nice enjoyable episode but nothing to special here. Average at best.
DAY OF THE DOVE probably should have been a terrible episode of Star Trek because of it was one of the cheapest Star Trek episodes ever produced. However strangely it ended up being one of the third season’s most popular episodes. Probably cause of the presence of Klingons and the fact that most of the episode is packed with action and fighting scenes. The appearance of Mike Ansaras as Kang the Klingon Commander also boosts this episode’s status. However DAY OF THE DOVE suffers from a weak plot line. The idea of a bizarre entity feeding off the hatred of Humans and Klingons is kinda far fetched and the ending of this episode is utterly weak. Although it is a classic and a enjoyable show with Klingons and action and all, but when you get down to the nitty gritty this is an average episode of Star Trek at best.
Overall a nice collection but not really classic. Both episodes are totally watchable though and DAY OF THE DOVE is actually a favourite of many. The appearance of Klingons almost always

Ordered a whole bunch since they are so inexpensive. My friend was dismayed to find out that a $2 cable is just as good as a eleventy billion dollar monster cable (I own on of those as well, so I was able to show him a direct comparison XD)

This book is great start to finish. I didn’t want it to end. I will miss these characters. The writer does such a wonderful job of painting such a poignant setting. Loved every second of it.

Star Wars Leapster Game. Fun game and great learning tool. Boys love star wars so theme was a hit and teaches 3 different levels of math so good for both my 5 and 7 year olds. Was shipped fast from Amazon and was the best price I found for this and many other Leapster games. Will continue to buy games from Amazon.com.
Kids learn so much…but don’t relized LeapFrog Leapster Learning Game: Star Wars Jedi Reading because they’re having so much fun!!. This game is worth it’s weight in gold! I got this game for my 5 year old son, and he LOVES it! He enjoys it, because it allows him to feel like he’s playing a traditional video game like his Dad’s. I love it because he is learning the whole time!
He has come leaps and bounds in the last several weeks that he’s been playing it. He has learned nearly all letter sounds, and has begun sounding out words on his own!! I am generally not a fan of video games, but this one is fun and educational!
