I wonder if this episode was inspired by The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde?

There has been a lot of comments, over the years, about Bill Shatner overacting but I think he is absolutely brilliant. He gets the nuances of emotional acting. I’ve always quite liked his work in Trek. The original series was a bit wacky at times, but that was the era, and one reason why it’s fun to watch. ;-) “Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light. I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.” —Sarah Williams from The Old Astronomer

I prefer some over acting with good story over wooden acting with weak story and cgi effects to make up for it. I plan to live forever,or die trying.

Star Trek has a lot to say about the human condition.

I wonder if this episode was inspired by The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? Possibly, there are a few old books with dark side,good side,even star wars etc. Even in the forbidden planet,it’s the ID I plan to live forever,or die trying.

Yes look at films,stage plays,programs with 1 or few actors,1 or 2 sets Such as I Claudius,etc cannot beat good story,acting etc I plan to live forever,or die trying.

It’s mostly wholesome fun,with morals,which is sorely lacking-these days I plan to live forever,or die trying.

I love the set lighting on this series. No idea why, probably just nostalgia because I grew up watching re-runs.
