This is the episode where I feel everything started coming together. The actors became comfortable with their characters, the feel of this episode was more relaxed than the previous ones, as the cast and crew found their groove. Groovy. - [[User:Adambomb1701|Adambomb1701]] 17:47, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Still being a "newbie" here, I wasn't completely comfortable with just removing this, but does this comment really have any place here?

I have a nitpick about this episode. The chain around the tiger's neck is very visible. Other than that, the whole thing was a real romp and a lot of fun. OS-Trek 14:28, 1 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Shore Leave II

The article says there was a Shore Leave 2 written but never filmed. Was this re-worked into TAS Once Upon a Planet?--Robert Treat 19:46, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

The honest answer is I don't know. I got the information from a listing of Roddenberry files. But given that Sturgeon drafted Shore Leave 2 and did NOT write Once Upon a Planet, it is probable that the stories were very different. Aholland 22:54, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
I made a note of something along those lines in the BG info, also adding a like to the Planet episode. -- Sulfur 23:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Background notes

A removal of part of a note:

While the ship is orbiting in this direction in Mirror, Mirror for one brief scene, for some reason it's going the other way for the rest of the episode!

Doesn't belong in this episode's notes, and would need to be re-written to get rid of that cursed "!".

  • Two of the World War II planes can be seen in the stock footage, although Rodriguez says, "That's one of them!"

For all we know, from his angle on the ground, he could only see one. Or he was just pointing to one. I can think of more explanations for this. It does not belong.

If we were to visit Sulu's quarters, there would likely be a gun collection on display.

This is pure speculation. It's removal does not effect the rest of the note it was part of. --OuroborosCobra talk 03:18, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Removal of Comment in Background Section?

Emily Banks turned in an exceptional performance as Barrows. She was likeable and believable in addition to being beautiful - a marked improvement over Yeoman Mears in "The Galileo Seven." Unfortunately, this was Barrows' only appearance. Thereafter, the yeoman role became mostly thankless and typically sexist in accordance with the time. However, like Barrows, yeomen Janice Rand, Martha Landon (TOS: "The Apple") and Leslie Thompson (TOS: "By Any Other Name") also gave strong performances. Landon would have been a welcome recurring role (especially for Chekov), but Thompson was killed off.

I liked Miss Banks as much as the next guy, but is it our function to critique or praise her performance and physical appearance, especially when it involves a blatant backhanded insult to Phyllis Douglas? Or to point out which yeomen gave "superior" performances? And to whom the producers should have offered recurring roles?
