I thought that it was one of best ST episodes ever. It dovetailed on the TOS episode showing the consequences of Pike purposely avoiding his tragic destiny, such as a Romulan war they were close to losing and the loss of all the monumental events that wouldn't happen because of what happened to Spock.

@@richardwarren8051 It was brilliantly done. I'm here watching these clips for the same reason, to see what it was based off. I never watched TOS, as I started from TNG as a kid, but bloody hell the feeling of two submarine commanders in a cold war was very strong in this episode and I love that they revisited it in a great way in SNW.

THAT is cool! Your account about your 90 year-old grandmother also puts the lie to the claim that "only young males who are nerds" like Star Trek. My parents--especially my father--loved the series when it came out in 1966, when they were in their late 40s, and they introduced me to it (they also became model rocketeers, flying Centuri, MPC, and Estes model rockets, back then).

this scene and the ending of the film it was based on "the enemy below", really just brings a tear to my eye. in those moments of limit experience in battle, two warriors in their heated enemy rivalry, come to respect one another, a rare and complicated respect that runs deeper than mere friendships between men. Kirk was genuinely aggrieved by the hirakiri suicide by the Romulan commander, because both men saw so much of themselves in the other. "in another life perhaps we would have called each other friends". now THAT is moving.
@dennish3002 жыл бұрын

@mo zack Only the sound editor knows for sure . Keep in mind the appox' 12 man band was still intact. Themes can be tweaked especially while the budget is decent. Because I hear some higher pitches in the "Enemy Within" which are not present in "Balance of Terror."

Thank you for posting this. Balance of Terror was the finest hour of television in all of Star Trek; better (IMHO) than The City on the Edge of Forever, which most seem to think was the best. I wish you'd included the scene, near the end, where Tomlinson's fiancee is in the chapel, and the door opens, revealing Kirk's form in silhouette, standing in the doorway. I think it's the most beautiful scene in a beautifully lit and photographed episode.

Thanks SeaDrive300. I actually put the whole chapel scene in, but the time exceeded 5 minutes and I could not post it. I picked the end of the chapel scene, because I wanted to include at least part of it. Live Long and Prosper !!!

Charles Ross years ago I purchased the DVD series of TOS(The Original Series). A few years ago CBS & Paramount released a remastered Blue Ray version with an optional updated special effects feature. It was the best investment I’ve ever made in entertainment! Well worth the cost! Now the price has gone down. I highly recommend it if you haven’t already purchased it! Certainly nothing like it on the market today!😊👌🖖

Todd, Have the Original Star Trek series in the 60's aired versions and have to say much prefer the 60's aired version much better over the enhanced versions. I do have the enhanced versons as well, however, my preferance is the 60's aired versions.

It is the whole set that is excellent. They go with the original Dr Who, Quatemass series. There is also one other short series A for Andromeda (mum told me the story) Number of others of cause but no one story in isolation.

Does anyone remember the scene where Spock pulls Stiles out of the phaser control room and a couple of men in environmental suits are seen rushing into room to contain the coolant leak? I have this episode on DVD but this scene has been deleted.

Balance of Terror was the only episode of Star Trek:TOS to have a wedding on the Enterprise,though the wedding got interrupted by an emergency. It would‘ve been wonderful to see the 1st married couple serving on the Enterprise under Kirk‘s command.

In the novel version of this episode the wedding does actually take place. Kirk has the couple come to the bridge and he marries them there. This was during the 9 hours the two ships were close to each other but not moving. The husband still dies at the end. It was dr. Mccoy who suggested that kirk marry them

As it cuts back to Kirk from the viewscreen after the self destruct, that motion of Kirk's right side is the end of the salute he gave the Romulan Commander that was cut out - though there is a photo of Kirk doing so that survives
