Well this is just great! I don’t say that in sarcastic exasperation, as might be expected. This was a legitimately great episode.
Man — no names in this one — is kept as a prisoner on a ship which travels endlessly through the universe. Like his father before him, he is the sole passenger and is kept alive only to perform repairs on the ship.
This is another Outer Limits episode like Trial by Fire or Quality of Mercy. It is so good I am uncomfortable mocking it. The story is great, the script is great, the performances are great, it looks great. It probably even smells good.
Just watch the damn thing.
Today is my day off and I’m doing things that I enjoy all day long (probably better not to know too much) and I was just looking for something to chew on.
Thanks for the tip, my man.
On a sidenote: your daily quick takes are one of the things that I always look forward to each day: doesn’t matter if the episode is glorious or it sucks – it’s always a joy to read!
Thanks for stopping by. That’s great to hear!
