The Paramount execs probably sat in a room and said, “Hmmm…how much money are we going to invest in this 40 year old TV show?” I’m sure the answer was to “play it safe” and make it as cheaply as they could possibly get away with. I hope we don’t start seeing that one every other episode. Finally getting fed up with the computer, Kirk asks it to record that it either be repaired, or scrapped, which seems to take c… What’s all this crap about “engaging stories”! The footage is on a base. Despite a somewhat lazy conclusion, Fontana’s effective combination of witty character interactions and intelligent dialogue results in another classic Star Trek offering. Perhaps he was amused by the fact that it might have said, “Watch the live moon landing in the commissary this Saturday.”, Or, better yet, “Star Trek renewed for another season!”.

Fontana and directed by Michael O'Herlihy, it first aired on January 26, 1967.. …and what’s up with the 1701’s flyby next to the sun? The crew must also go down to earth and steal some computer reels to cover things up and again are forced to beam another man, a sergeant of security, onto the ship. One that really has me is concerning Capt. I think this episode is meant to just be fun and not serious. Yes, they weren’t right in the beginning. Awards I was frankly a bit suprised by how fake the sun looked, I thought it was a huge ball of flaming gas, millions of miles wide. Yes this episode is rife with odd temporal paradoxes. Is Yesterday, an episode where future returns to the past. And though not terribly serious, Tomorrow is Yesterday is a good example. However, zipping at Warp 3 toward the sun would have made everything smear like crazy. I agree totally with you Herbert. “Tomorrow Is Yesterday” contains an exciting story that will appeal to time travel enthusiasts and fans of spacefaring science fiction alike. As for why it also seems to work in the 1960s…um….easy…it was a Vulcan system, and has been operating since the second century AD. The episode would have made a whole lot more sense in McCoy had used some medical machine or drug to wipe their short-term memories, then as they go forward in time (after going back) beam them back shortly after they disappeared the first time. This time, the starship is slingshot, thanks to a black star, to 1960s Earth, found by the Air Force in the sky, considering the Enterprise a UFO. I could have sworn Earth was on the left side of that shot, but you’re absolutely correct, that was Mercury. This episode is no exception, especially as it gets more fun to watch as time goes by.

But look back at the original episodes if you really want to see inconsistent nacelle caps…YIKES! Other than that, great work by CBS as usual. The photo-real Earth only makes the original planet effects seem that much more primitive. :). The plot is fairly complicated and as impossible (from a scientific perspective) as most of what passed for science in Voyager and Enterprise, but the strength of Fontana's dialog and the performances of the regular crew and the guest stars (Roger Perry is great in this) carries it. I loved MANY of the effects, had one or two that made me say, “ehhh?”, and a few that made me cover my eyes in shame. Read honest and unbiased product reviews … The initial approach to the sun was somewhat unconvincing, as the sun appeared to be almost as close as the moon, though I’m assuming that was a result of available shot timing and having to get the point across that the ship was heading out at Ludicrous Speed. Also…will it be offered in Blue Ray or HD….that other format? It sure seemed like one). A Kind Review accenting the positive for the most part and I cannot dispute many of the high points. It seems hopeless but the old scientific realities of the warp enter in. What aircraft carrier sized object wobbles? BTW, how do you like the endless debate on the size of the Enterprise……, or maybe the 30 degree offset of the TOS bridge?

Also, super up-close fly by of the ship (the one where you only see the top sliver of the ship) shot could get old really fast. My only real quibble is with the wobble. Earth seemed HUGE! He adapts to his circumstances extremely fast. Christopher beamed aboard the enterprise… this creates a problem; now that Christopher has seen the Enterprise they can't allow him to return as his new knowledge of the future could have a major effect on Earth's history. Star Trek The Original Series S03E23 All Our Yesterdays. I don’t waste time thinking about that. After some research, it is determined that the Air Force captain must be returned to Earth so he can father the first Commander to travel to Jupiter, without whom Starfleet will not exist.

I have to know, as a professional, don’t you get sick of the endless, mindless debates, that go on and on ad-infinitum? Episode Preview: Tomorrow Is Yesterday. The female computer gag seems very dated, as does the Air Force Captain oogling the women aboard, but that is part of the old fashioned charm.The episode overall is quite well done, and of course Spock saves the day in the end. Anniversaries work their way into reviews like this; the episode aired about twenty years after pilot Kenneth Arnold spotted what people immediately began calling flying saucers and UFOs, and only two days before the tragic Apollo 1 fire, which is somewhat ironic given the mention of the “first manned moon shot” heard over the Enterprise bridge speaker. http://www.compositecreationsltd.com/Sinclair3.html.

But…It still doesn’t explain why there aren’t two Enterprises present at the rebeaming…. Many of the “Plot holes” we like to point out can be explained by our ignorance of the subtle technology and nature of space in the Trek Universe. Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Star Trek - The Original Series, Vol. In a way, "Yesterday" is a bit like a dry-run for Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, mostly in the over-the-top comedic reactions we get from military men caught up in the Enterprise's woes.

Star Trek DC Fontana Making Tomorrow is Yesterday. Its ongoing mission: to explore strange new stories about Star Trek during its 50th … The darkish canopy in one scene was puzzling; perhaps they wanted to show it reflecting a darker high altitude sky, but it seemed oddly opaque. Roger Perry (7 May 1933 – 12 July 2018; age 85) was the actor who played Captain John Christopher in the Star Trek: The Original Series first season episode "Tomorrow is Yesterday".He filmed his scenes between Monday 28 November 1966 and Monday 5 December 1966 at Desilu Stage 9 and Stage 10.. Perry began acting in movies in 1958, and television a year later. Support. These are the TREK TUESDAYS voyages of the website 13th Dimension. If we don’t suspend disbelief (what really would be the effect of beaming 185 pounds of man into 185 pounds of same man from the day before?) It looked like a painted disco ball in this episode. Most of them had been much closer to what was seen in the original version, which makes the Enterprise look way too big. Thanks. Patrick J Mullen. This was a GOOD review. There are no rules that say we all have to like Trek for the same reasons. Sorry, folks, but I just don’t see the point in dumping all over Dennis Bailey.

Star Trek Season show reviews & Metacritic score: The Enterprise narrowly avoids a collision with a black hole and is thrown back to Earth in the 20th century, where … IF the movie BOMBS, the dvd sales are slow…Paramount will say, “It’s dead, Jim.” However, if by some miracle Trek 11 is the highest grossing Trek movie and dvd sales are decent or good, they will say…quick, let’s redo these AGAIN and spend a lot of money this time!!!! Mr Bailey writes fun reviews, whose sense of humour and ability to poke fun at Star Trek shows a deep love for Trek itself. The Omaha installation was never named, possibly to avert this trope. Tomorrow Is Yesterday begins with some unusual images for a Star Trek episode: in a US military airport of the Sixties a F-104 fighter takes off to investigate something very strange. This one threads a fine line between comedy and sf adventure. But you knew that! Roger Perry is a good actor also and a true plus to this episode. This is Earth in the 1960s! This early D. C.

I could mentally ignore the original effects and believe that the computer-generated U.S.S. What aircraft carrier sized object wobbles?”. Today’s episode is number 20: Tomorrow Is Yesterday. The scene where the fighter pilot spots the Enterprise is an iconic one and there are plenty of clever touches in this episode that make it one of the best in Season 1. as a general rule, any episode of any series showing the people and world we know from an outside perspective is a above average episode; this is no exception. No sniping! I wish they had made a few episodes visiting their former homes, like Scotty in Scotland, etc. Enterprise would be chucked back through time. With Shatner, Nimoy, and Kelley, you were guaranteed that. Considering Paramount has made well over a billion dollars on Star Trek, then it only seems fair and just that they spend WHATEVER IT TAKES to come out with the definitive blue ray box set of TOS with remastered scenes and THE EFFECTS SHOULD BE PERFECT!!

I also agree that the Earth looked great, the Sun looked wrong and the F104 was just ok. And of course the edits were brutal, but that is what the itunes downloads and DVDs are for. It’s a minor nitpick, and CBS-D has done an excellent job with the planets otherwise. Does this mean that the CBS-D team is untalented and a mess? The real problem is this: CBS/Paramount kinda slipped this out from under the rug at the last minute and surprised us with it. | The various twists and turns the Enterprise makes in its “backwards time” bubble are fine, CBS having to provide visual evidence for some space-time ideas that I’m still scratching my head about. This is the curse of the television series in that we know these same people are going to appear next week. Character interaction??!!

It gave the brave pilot a well deserved look at the future, and gave me a warm feeling…all tingly inside…for which he, Christopher, showed true gratitude to Kirk and crew by episodes close… yes there were some nice moments that were sliced /hacked out of this episode…guess we have to wait and wait for the HQ DVD’s, or HDNET! No doubt such a system became crucial to maintain a common Federation-wide time reference, given the likelihood of thousands of ships accumulating relativistic distortions on their own shipboard systems over the course of many years. What happened to “Good morning, Captain”? Gamekult. I understand the argument that it doesn’t fit with the 60’s, but still…. LOL, Regarding the wobble and cringe-worthy effects, I can’t help but repost most of one of my posts from a different thread. The publicized use of orbital photography from the space shuttle and International Space Station definitely is effective, as is what I assume are the large Earth texture and cloud maps from the NASA Blue Marble website. Unlike Mr. Bailey’s reviews, it was not overly negative nor did it go off on tangents in an attempt to be witty by taking cheap shots with the benefit of, oh say, 40 years of hindsight. It doesn’t matter to me how the chronometers work. They did not trumpet it with TONS of media coverage and make it the anniversary event it could have been. One interesting bit that nicely predates tablet computers and PDAs occurs when Christopher offers to sketch out a layout of the Omaha air base, and Kirk hands him the electronic clipboard we all know from various bridge scenes. Far from it, this is one of the highlights of the season. I enjoyed seeing the Enterprise crew in the context of planet Earth scenery. I think the planets mostly look the same size in Star Trek because the ship is usually in “Standard Orbit”, so ordered by Kirk. DANG! The orbit shots were gorgeous, and I love the different sense of scale used.
