[QUOTE]Originally posted by Raw Cadet: [QB] The whole plot problem (if one thinks a problem exists) does, indeed, originate with "Space Seed." Thus, why use a villain from that episode? Given Kirk's personality, he probably offended a lot of persons over the course of 79 episodes. I am not a "The Original Series" expert, but surely there is a man or woman whom Kirk offended to the degree that he offended Khan (though I grant that Ricardo (cannot spell the last name from rote memory) was good in the movie). At least it was not the wrath of Harry Mudd, though. My main beef is what does this say about our hero? Some consider Kirk to be the greatest of all Trek captains. A guy who would release a highly intelligent and resourceful man, mentioned in the same breath as other despots, into unsupervised exhile is the greatest captain? P.S. My use of "blasphemous" was meant to be a clever remark in an extended metaphor, not a serious admonition. [/QB][/QUOTE]
