Now, Spock's personal relationship is known to everyone? Really? The writers have changed the entire dynamics of the relationship. And tge writers come up with another brilliant idea, let's throw in a cheep movie idea of switching bodies! Ugh! And, again, no explanation as to why and how they switched bodies during the ritual that never happened in the original!

Nurse Chapel is now Spock's confidant? Really? Not at all in keeping with Spock's personality, nor the lovelorn nurse in love with the Vulcan who takes great pride in being unemotional! And, Spock smiled in this episode, too. Wow.

I'm sorry to say that the writers are rewriting the characters, and the "new" old characters are just plain boring!

And the acting is just plain awful. Number One is a terrible actress. None of her actions seem natural. And the lieutenant is just plain annoying! Their relationship is annoying, too. They decide to play Enterprise bingo? Duh!

Who's writing this garbage? Did they even bother to watch the original shows?

I think I'm done with this series. I had high hopes, but I'd rather watch the reruns of the original series than watch these.
