Star Trek - The Original Series, Vol. 28, Episodes 55 & 56: Assignment: Earth/ Spectre of the Gun Reviews
"That, Miss Lincoln, is simply my cat."
The enterprise is sent back to the late 60's to see how a potently deadly nuclear situation was avoided. They may have to do a little interfering themselves. While there their transporter snags a string man, Gary Seven (Robert Lansing), and his feline looking traveling companion Isis. A secretary Miss Roberta Lincoln (Terry Garr) to a missing agent is suspicious and thinks that Gary Seven may be a spy.
Is Gary Seven a sinister being, or part of a larger plan? And keep a close eye on his co-traveler Isis.
Other Startrek time travel episodes include "Tomorrow is Yesterday", and "The City on the Edge of Forever". One of the most interesting time Startrek travels is "Assignment: Earth" It was probably meant as a pilot for a spin off. We also get to see a young Terri Garr with her signature confused facial expressions. We also get to contemplate the ramifications of time travel mixed with a few comic situations.
Skip It
The original "Star Trek" series is cheesy at times but often fun and sometimes dramatic. However, 2 episodes per disc is a sure sign that Paramount was milking this series for all that it's worth, because they knew that the loyal "Star Trek" fans would buy every disc - all 40 of them. Paramount has now released the entire series in season boxed sets which, although still pricey, include bonus features and are a better value than these single-disc releases. Skip these discs and buy the boxed sets instead.
