I thought this was an interesting read. You can see that the seeds of what would become Star Trek were already growing.

Also, despite the name “Transporter” sounding familiar, his description of it is closer to a holodeck. It “transports” the user to different scenarios. Wild.

    The ending bits that imply a darker vision of this future suggests a very different direction for the show. Still, there are Star Trek episodes that do consider the holodeck from this angle. Maybe we need a mirror universe holodeck episode.

      Someone should create a series where the entire Star Trek franchise was a holodeck simulation played by unwitting actors for our amusement.

            Even the creators agree that it sucks tremendously and suggest that the second to last episode is the supposed season finale (the one ending with archer pulling a Picard, giving an epic speech)
