Thanks to Bill and Kerriem for this idea. What nit do you find the most aggravating?
No shuttles to rescue Sulu's team in The Enemy Within, nor any explanation why they didn't beam down clothing or blankets to keep them warm, nor dialogue saying 'I wish there were caves around here that we could seek shelter in.'
Just Sulu-popsicles for everyone.
That stands out as the most illogical one for me.
My big, ugly, can't-dismiss-it-while-I'm-watching-the-ep nit comes during 'A Piece of the Action':
Spock's on the Enterprise. Boss (essentially 'gangster', one of a planet full of same) Bela Oxmyx calls and tells him he better get down there, his captain's been kidnapped.
So...our intrepid Vulcan instantly analyzes the options.
Then he orders Scotty to pinpoint Kirk's location and beam him back aboard...no, wait. He decides to beam down to Kirk's location with a highly-trained Starfleet Security assault team (or, given the Iotian average IQ, even a sloppily-trained one)...nope. Maybe he beams down to Oxmyx's office, but with at least a couple of heavily armed guards? Or at the very least he leaves the guards on standby in the transporter room, awaiting his signal?
None of the above. What the most brilliant, logical mind in Starfleet does is, he beams down with McCoy...and no security guards. Right into Oxmyx's trap.
Man, it's a good thing this ep's otherwise as funny and clever as it is.
My favorite nit can be summed up with one "word"...SCPIPT!
The eternal printing of shots in reverse. For crying out loud, one even showed up in the theatrical release of "ST-TMP" (a shot of Decker in the wormhole sequence,) though I think it was fixed for the DVD.
When the Enterprise fires its Phaser Banks and Photon Torpedoes come out.
In "The Mark Of Gideon", the crew doing everything they possibly can to locate the missing Captain Kirk . . . except the most obvious, step one solution, call him on his communicator.
I'd like to nominate Todd Pence for some kind of award for that nit; I've watched that episode again and again and again, and NEVER once did I realize that major boo-boo. Way to go, Todd!
He's right. The Gideonites should have had a jamming field, but the Enterprise crew didn't even TRY.
Of course when Spock beams down onto the Gideon ship he immediately calls the Enterprise and tells them where he is.
Thanks for the nomination, Will, maybe we could have some kind of nitpicking awards board here. We could have categories like best nit (for show), most nits, etc.
What would we call our awards? The "Nitties?"
My main "Trek" nit:
There is ALWAYS a turbo-lift car ready when you need it, even on the bridge. In the last act of "LTBYLB", for heaven's sake, there was a car ready for Bele no more than five seconds after Lokai left the bridge. This nit carries through all five "Trek" series.
Exceptions:
"Disaster"-Next Gen
"Star Trek V"-When Spock had to act as a turbo-lift to carry Kirk and McCoy up the shaft.
Expanding on Adam Bomb's "Spock-as-a-turbo-lift" nit...
The fact that the turbo shaft in ST:V was--what, some FIFTY-SEVEN levels, or some ridiculously impossible number. Even if you're not into starship design or model building or anything else that might let you gain knowledge about the Enterprise A's layout, this just feels wrong! The ship doesn't look that tall from the outside. (Maybe it's a tardis!)
By the way, in a related nit, Enterprise A's decks are lettered, not numbered, and the top deck (the bridge) is Deck A.
A nit-in-law (?) to Craig's nit above:
In "TOS" and "Star Trek-TMP," the decks were numbered. In "Star Trek II-TWOK," the decks are lettered, for what we assume is the same ship throughout.
The "Nitty" awards have been claimed by the LICC!
Son of nit-in-law: by the time ST:II took place, they could have switched deck designations from numbers to letters. Uniforms weren't the only thing to get overhauled.
I believe Enterprise A officially has the lettered deck arrangement...hang on a sec while I look it up.
dum de dum...
Hey, I was mistaken! According to ST:The Magazine volume 1 #12, the decks are numbered. I was thinking of non-canon blueprints I've seen when I made the letter error. (I KNEW those magazines would come in handy for something!) BTW, the bridge is considered Deck 1, so at least my nit about Deck 57 still holds.
In some of the early TOS episodes, the decks are lettered, not numbered. "Conscience Of The King" is one that comes to mind.
Here's another blatant oversight - in "Where No Man Has Gone Before" the ship is severly damaged by the encounter with the galactic barrier. Spock tells them that a planet with supplies to repair the ship is "a few light days away." How is the Enterprise going to get to this planet if her warp drive is supposed to be kaput?
Possible name for our awards for "Favorite Nits"....
"The Scpipts" I think that'd be perfect.
"The Scpipts." I second the vote!
I meant "motion," not "vote."
I vote aye!
Sounds good to me. Now all we have to do is pick a panel of judges.
Here's another glaring nit:
The MANNEQUIN that was used at PSI 2000 in "The Naked Time"
Well, come on, John, who do you think reads the SCPIPTs? 
Just as I figured...the scpipts were read by a bunch of dummies! Thanx, ScottN
For me the most annoying nits are in The Paradise Syndrome.
First Spock trashes the warp engines just to save a few seconds, when the asteroid is still weeks away from the planet.
Then the Enterprise only just makes it back to the planet ahead of the asteroid, even though the ship has impulse engines and the asteroid is just a lump of rock.
What are the scpipts???
TUE
John's favorite nit. About half of the first season episodes had no "SCRIPT SUPERVISOR" in the closing credits, instead, they had a "SCPIPT SUPERVISOR".
Sorry ScottN, I already mentioned that on Tuesday, February 12, 2002 - 07:51 pm (scroll up)
Hey...keep trying!
So, are "The Scpipts" also the name we chose for awards for best Star Trek nits, or are we waiting for more feedback?
Or was it just a joke?
I deeply apologize, ScottN, It seems that >I< am the one who needs to "scroll up". I failed to see that you were answering The Undesirable Element's question. I thought you were mentioning the "Scpipt Supervisor" Nit again! (Boy do I feel dumb!) 
(smacking forehead)
To Craig: I think just about everyone agrees that "The Scpipts" will be the name fot the awards for TOS.
Scpipts sounds good to me!
FUNNY SUGGESTION: (Judges' pseudo-names)
Instead of having the people who would be judges use their real names, they should use TOS related names:
Examples:
Uhuru
Spawnk
PSI 2000 Mannequin...etc.
John has to be the SCPIPT SUPERVISOR!
I call "Spawnk"
How about "Expendable Red-Shirt" for a name? Oh, wait, what other kind of red-shirt IS there?
Can I be Uhuru?
You read my mind, ScottN.
Can I be Kowles?
Or was it Kowel? Aargh, I can't think when I'm this ill!
Merat---It was indeed Kowel.
Note to all: (IMHO) I feel you can take whatever clever TOS pseudo-name you want...just don't change names in mid-stream.
**********THE 2002 SCPIPT AWARDS**********
Here are my nominations:
* Most bizarre nit: The "Scpipt Supervisor" nit seen during 1/2 of the first season's end credits.
* Most confusing nit: Kirk's shirt change in "Charlie X'...one moment it's yellow, the next moment it's green.
* Most silly nit: Kirk's backside---"Devil in the Dark"...one minute he's holding a phaser, the next moment a communicator.
* Most moronic nit: The mannequin at PSI 2000...c'mon...with all those extras on the ship they couldn't get anyone to "play dead" for a few seconds?
* Most unexplained nit: John Winston has ALWAYS been Kyle...so why is it in "The Immunity Syndrome" he's Kowel?
* Most obvious nit: Kirk orders phasors and they look like photon torpedoes..."Balance of Terror" & "Errand of Mercy"
I would like to see the other "judges" come up with category names too...just to keep things interesting.
Maybe Kirk couldn't pronounce "Kyle" as he had a toothache that day.
Did the Enterprise even have a dentist? McCoy was an M.D. and an expert in space psychology. I doubt he could do triple duty with teeth.
McCoy: "I'm a doctor, not a dentist!"
Crewmember 1: "Um, sir, aren't dentists doctors? They have to hold a doctorate in order to practice..."
Crewmember 2: "Yeah, but that's a doctorate in DENTISTRY."
Crewmember 1: "Still, they're DOCTORS."
McCoy: "I'm a doctor, not a legal expert!"
Regarding dentists: canonically, no mention was made of dentists. Non-canon blueprints have shown that Sickbay consisted of several specialized offices (dentistry, OB/GYN, etc.), but I guess we can't count that source, even if it IS well thought out.
Most Unusual Second Career Nit; To James T. Kirk, and his technical wizardery as an engineer for a ship he's never been on before (saving the Enterprise-B, when it should have been Scotty's job).
Biggest Family Secret Nit; Sybok is Spock's brother, and he never told Kirk or McCoy about him for more than 20 years.
Now You See It, Now You Don't Battle Damage Nit; the Enterprise didn't develop most of her battle scars from Star Trek II until we saw her again in Star Trek III (mainly on the secondary hull).
Well, He Doesn't Really Count Nit; Will Decker shows pictures of previous Enterprises, but Captain Archer's is mysteriously missing.
Darn, Will, I was just re-reading the Guides, and I was going to post the Second Career nit!
How about Chekov's monitor in ST III:TSFS? Someone's broken into Spock's quarters, and the image on the monitor pinpoints the location of the room...on the Original Series Enterprise!
How about a category for worst pronunciation of a junior officer's name by a ranking officer? The nominees could be:
The aforementioned Kirk's pronunciation of Kyle in "Immunity Syndrome"
McCoy's pronunciation of Jarger in "The Squire Of Gothos"
And Kirk's pronunciation of Shea in "By Any Other Name"
How about the reverse category: "Worst pronunciation of a senior officer's name".
"Spawnk" in "The Deadly Years".
Category: Goofiest Facial Expression
Nominees:
Sulu: "Wolf in the Fold"
Sulu: "Return of the Archons"
Sulu: "Catspaw"
Sulu: "This Side of Paradise"
Kirk: "This Side of Paradise" (Just so it's not all Sulu! )
IMHO you can make up any catagory you like...just keep it CLEAN!
What about Kirk's pronunciation of Uhura at the end of the first act of "Gamesters Of Triskelion?" ("What's happening to Lt. EWE-HURA?")
So add it to the nominations!
Don't just sit there jawing, Spawnk! You and Doctor Wallace get crackin'! I'll just sit her and have a snort of Geritol!
IMHO we should set a deadline for posting nominations....I think the last day should be Apr. 30 with voting & final results done on Jun 1-2 (to give us late nitpickers a chance)
Just saw this on the Larry King transcript page -- one of the more common errors for 'mundanes' to make..........
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP, "STAR TREK")
LEONARD NIMOY, ACTOR, "DR. SPOCK": Spent a whole lifetime learning to hide my feelings.
SHATNER, "CAPTAIN KIRK": We've got to rescue Plosion (ph). It's our only chance.
note: I believe it was "risk implosion".
NIMOY: It's never been done.
SHATNER: Don't tell me that again, science officer. It is a theory. It's possible. We may go up into the biggest ball of fire since the last sun on these parts exploded, but we've got to take that one in 10,000 chance.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Bridge to captain, engineer asks, did you find...
SHATNER: Yes, I found Mr. Spock! I'm found Mr. Spock, I'm talking to Mr. Spock, do you understand?
(END VIDEO CLIP)
Later on in the same transcript:
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP, "STAR TREK: GENERATIONS")
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Captain, look, I need your help. I want you to leave the nexus with me. We have to go back to our planet. (UNINTELLIGIBLE). We have to stop a man called Solon (ph) from destroying a star. Millions of lives are at stake.
SHATNER: You say history considers me dead. Who am I to argue with history?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: You're a Star Fleet officer. You have a duty.
SHATNER: I don't need to be lectured by you. I was out saving the galaxy when your grandfather was in diapers.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE?!! How could they not know it's Patrick Stewart? Just look at the first name on the box!!
Just a note: If you don't agree with other people's nominations to "Most bizarre nit", "most goofy nit", etc...feel free to submit your own nomination. TIME IS RUNNING OUT. THE RESULTS WILL BE FINAL!
How about James R. Kirk?
Worst use of stock footage:
Uhura clip in "The Paradise Syndrome"
Worst use of voiceover:
Uhura speaking over intercom "The Enemy Within"
Worst flipped image: Kirk (any)
Worst time to have Spock join the landing party:
"Spock's Brain"
Worst appearance by an "extra":
Mr. Leslie...any episode after "Obsession"
Worst occurance of proper name dodging:
Romulan Commander...she whispers it to Spock
Worst case of music abuse: "The dirge"...first heard in "Spock's Brain" and hammmered into our heads almost every episode after that.
DUMB LINES:
"He's pretty!" Deela, regarding Kirk. (Wink of an Eye)
"Someone strangled this woman" (Spock) Naked Time
"She's (Rayna's) human...right down to the last blood cell!"--Kirk (Requeim...)
Chapel's whining about not wanting to kiss Spock (Plato's Stepchildren)
One of the miners actually says to Kirk, "You can't bring your ship down here" (Devil in the Dark)
"There's no trick to growing fruit on trees" Kirk...after Vaal is destroyed. (The Apple)
Worst transfer of command: "Journey To Babel"..Kirk asks Chekov to take the Conn when Uhura clearly outranks him.
Worst command decision by Starfleet authority:
Stocker..."The Deadly Years" (Stay out of the Neutral Zone)
Worst displays of emotion by Spock when he's supposed to be emotionless..."The Galileo Seven" (Spock angrily chides the crew for not taking off when he told them to)
Worst transfer of command: "Journey To Babel"..Kirk asks Chekov to take the Conn when Uhura clearly outranks him.
Anti-nits.:
1.) Women are not allowed command at that time (cf. Turnabout Intruder).
2.) Uhura may not be command track.
Worst displays of emotion by Spock when he's supposed to be emotionless..."The Galileo Seven" (Spock angrily chides the crew for not taking off when he told them to)
Another possible anti-nit:
Spock is supposed to be half-human, even though he was raised on Vulcan and wants to be a better Vulcan. (In fact, this explains a lot about the inconsistencies concerning Spock and uncharacteristic flashes of emotion.)
And while we're adopting pseudo names.... bagsy me Mr Solo! (from some early TOS episode, I think it was "The Enemy Within")
Is it too late to send in nominations? If not, I nominate:
Musical Mishap of TOS: the "love music" a.k.a. Ruth's theme from I can't remember which episode but it was probably "Shore Leave". (It was mentioned in the Nitpicker's Guide, but having heard it recently I must make its existence known again)
And...
The Enron Award for Outstanding Contribution to Future Technology: that wonky chronometer in "The Naked Time" (or was it "Tomorrow Is Yesterday"?) that, while going backwards, goes 51... 40... 49...
Worst dubbing: Scotty's log in "Wink of an Eye" (It comes from "The Empath")
Most idiotic nit: The wideshots of the main viewer. Sulu's & Chekov's constant appearing/disappearing act.
Another goofy facial expression: Kirk..."Wink of an Eye"
Worst use of a sound effect: The Aminiar VII disrupter SFX...EVERY TIME an alien weapon shows up. This is closely followed by the Trelane "boing" noise
Todd Pence: Here's another blatant oversight - in "Where No Man Has Gone Before" the ship is severly damaged by the encounter with the galactic barrier. Spock tells them that a planet with supplies to repair the ship is "a few light days away." How is the Enterprise going to get to this planet if her warp drive is supposed to be kaput?
This isn't a nit. A light-day is the distance that light travels in a single day. If the planet was, say, four light-days away, and if the Enterprise could make 0.2c (for example) with her impulse engines, it could reach the planet in twenty days, or just under three weeks.
J.A.L.:Worst transfer of command: "Journey To Babel"..Kirk asks Chekov to take the Conn when Uhura clearly outranks him
Rank isn't the only factor. In the U.S. Navy, for instance, if I'm the captain of a carrier and I leave the bridge, who do I give the conn to? The commanding officer of my air group (CAG) has the rank of captain, but he's an aviator. My group intelligence officer might be a commander, but he's intel. Neither officer has "water wings", so I'd be inclined to leave the conn to the most experienced sailor, not the highest-ranking officer.
Sorry, John, but Sulu is the king of goofy facial expressions!
Jesse, see my anti-nit #2.
WORST ADDED LINE:
"Who are you and what is the meaning of this attack?" Kirk..."The Cloud Minders"
It's bad because Kirk ain't even moving his lips!
Poorest display of intelligence:
Spock..."Is There In Truth No Beauty?" where he mistakes Dr. Miranda Jones for Kollos..who is supposed to be known to be hideous.
Worst "Parallel Earth" planet:
Miramanee's planet.."The Paradise Syndrome"..the "Preservers" watched "Star Trek"... They make access to the temple available by a communicator chirp...The "memory beam" was the Enterprise's door "swish" noise.
Worst display of diplomacy: Kirk.."Spock's Brain"...He falls down on his knees and desires access to the "Controller"
I forgot...the "Preservers" also knew about Kirk's famous "hail"
So what happened to the voting and the SCPIPT awards?
The people are at "Lines you'll never hear...11" (Lost interest I guess)
We could still always vote on these things....
Kirk made many appearances sans shirt on TOS, showing off his hairless chest. Yet, when he wears the white open-collared shirt in "TMP," his chest hair is visible.
Not a nit. It's several years later perhaps when he was younger he shaved or waxed (some chicks dig that) and as he got older he stopped doing it.
GOLDEN SCPIPT AWARD:
Forgive me if I sound biased...but...
I think the "Golden Scpipt Award" should go to the nit I found in the 1st season..."Scpipt Supervisor...George A. Rutter" in the end credits.
REASON: It just boggles my mind how they let that spelling error go unchecked for such a long time (13 episodes) and nobody noticed it...until now.
Oh, I dunno... "Uhuru" is also pretty heinous.
I agree..the Scpipt goes to the Scpipt.
Honorable mention should go to photons not phasers
and Charlie X shirt transformation.
The Scpipt award for goofiest face goes to Sulu, "Wolf in the Fold".
I agree, the big Scpipt award goes to the Scpipt Supervisor.
*****SCPIPT WINNER*****
The "Scpipt Supervisor" snafu of the season one end credits is the all-time, clear cut, down-and-out champion goof of all TOS.
(For those new to Nitcentral, the end credits of season one have "Scpipt Supervisor...George A. Rutter" posted during 13 episodes of TOS. Other times it's "Script Supervisor")
Well, SOMEONE had to declare a winner!
The Scpipt Supervisor misspelled Uhuru s name in Star Trek 6 i see;) and Eddie Paskey never got a screen credit in Tos;
also the Bridge on Star Trek 5 is deck 78....a nit was Spock s jet boots passed the same deck twice i think...Kirk falling down in Yosimite..
James R Kirk in the Second Pilot, (what the R would stand for?)
Kirk orders phasers to fire and they end up being photon torpedo shots...Errand of Mercy, Balance of Terror some others
and if Mccoy saved in Edith in City Of Forever (mayberry )
then the Federation would never have existed- who was really there back in 1930 then?
the crew sleeps in their Uniforms it seems!(except for Uhuru and Rand)
and where do you go to the bathroom? especially in a Shuttlecraft?
Chekov screams a lot,Mirror Mirror,Tholian Web...
The Winner is John A Lang for noticing the Scpipts
James R Kirk in the Second Pilot, (what the R would stand for?)
My theory (AHEM AHEM) by ScottN (AHEM) paren Mister paren. My theory, which is mine, is that Mitchell was a touch typist, and hit 'R' instead of 'T' with his brain.
Personal note to:Say is that Craig Rohloff,Cr? did you write under Omega Man movie nits? th e dvd is supposed to be out this month (again...)the powers that be cancelled on it last year
thanx Scottn, what does the N stand for? (just askn)James "Rerun "Kirk, mmmm
Mccoy screaming Well, well what s happening Spawnk!(loved it)
Cheese award to Star wars: Breifing officer tells the Jedhi s to use your Proton Torpedos..booo.. wonder where they picked that up?
Mr leslie had one screen credit,Alternative factor?(Becuase he spoke)
Worst hairdo award goes to Chekov, Who Mourns for (Chekov) Adonis...it s a wig doh!
And on the Paradise Syndrome episode shouldn t the Indians be speaking in their native tongue not so perfect English? ( of course it s an American tv show therefore)
And In Shore Leave the ship flies opposite right to left instead o f left to right is that a nit?
George A Rutter is the Scpipt Supervisor did he even notice that when Tos aired?(back in 66)
Uhuru was misspelled? How did they spell it?
Uhuru shoulda been Uhura i think means freedom...The Scpipt person done it again.. my dvd and the vhs for Star Trek6 had it done that maybe they fixed it?
At the starfleet academy they use handles! (tng first duty )
Scotty should love machines...not be irritated by them..(Up yr shaft!) (No bloody abc or d!)
Anon, ever see Top Gun? They use handles at the Top Gun school, too.
Yes i did Top gun was ok,but top gun is the 20th century not 24th! oh well,picky, picky
They used the same matte painting for Vulcan and for Melkot! Spock describes the planet Melkot but doesn't mention it has some of the same geography!
Several other planets in TOS have the same matte paintings; does anybody have a list?
Gary Seven's apartment is a fictional address, if it's NYC; that street ends at 535, which is a hospital.
The Doomsday Machine has a few holes in it near the rim.
Why did the Providers on Triskelion named their planet after a Celtic symbol? Why'd they change it from "Pentathlon"?
Spawnk took 18 some years to get his first command (galileo 7, what? Pike didnt trust him for 11 years8 days whatever? he did not take over the first enterprise whatsoever when Pike and company go on a mission?) he crashes the shuttle, gets his men killed and he hijacks the Enterprise to Talos4,, falls in love with Jill Ireland and gets wacked by globs of jelly in operation annihilate,etc
there should be a story for Captain April....(i know counterclock incident did that)live anyways
Top gun uses swishing doors in the 20th century, eh?That Maverick fella is too young to be a Maverick...liked Final Countdown better
Someone get a blanket for poor Sarek dying of Benjji (sp) syndrome!(unification 1)
Spock gushing over some chick in the Cloud Minders about his Pon far, isnt that suppose to be a very private thing (amok time)
Spock eats meat! (all our yesterdays) shouldn t Bones be changing into a Neandathral Man?..(good shot of the Supernova -Enterprise shot though)
Wink of an Eye is very similar to Blink of an Eye or is that visa versa?
Dumb move award:
Kirk goes on board the Exeter without checking the
bridge sensors screen like Picard did in Unnatural selection... maybe they didn t have that technology then?
how do warp engines buckle? tomarrow is yesterday
If cpt Sisko doesnt know about baseball (he has a ball in his office ...signed by the scpipt supervisor of ds9)
Cheap reused footage award:The way to Eden where they fall down (from Spocks Brain ) Doh
We Reach, Herbert!
This is not an episode specific nit, nor particularly a Trek nit-- but is is a nit that concerns Trekkers.
Spelling errors are common on the Internet, some are accidental, some are due to ignorance, but one error that I see often involves the confusing of the English words "lose" and "loose".
Nine times out of ten the word "loose" is used where "lose" would be appropriate. This is not directed solely at Nitcentral, although I have noticed this error here occasionally. It seems the entire Internet is plagued by this confusion.
Example for future reference:
Cadet Kirk could not bear to LOSE the Kobayashi Maru scenario. (LOSE= to fail to win)
Scotty repaired the LOOSE connection with his tri-laser connector. (LOOSE= not tight)
I have also noticed confusion between BREACH and BREECH not just on the Internet, but in professionally published novels as well. BREACH refers to a rupture such as:
"Hull breach!" screamed Harry Kim. Those were his last words.
or:
"Breach hull, all die. Even had it underlined."
(Crow, MST3K the movie)
BREECH refers to an old fashioned BREECH-loading firearm which, I think, only fired one shot before reloading. It is also an old English term for short pants gathered at the knee as in BREECHES. Our American term "britches" (slang for "pants") comes from this word.
Lest I give the impression that I'm a Grammar Cop in extremis, I'm not. Nor do I mean to insult anyones education or keyboarding skills. However, Trek fans when not being stereotyped as nerdy geeks are known for sticklers for accuracy. If we can spend a day and a half arguing about how to beam through shields at warp, then let's at least get the spelling right.
Just a few thoughts rambling around in the ol' Captain's noggin this evening.
Pleasant dirunal anomaly to you all!
Not to mention using "definate" instead of "definite".
And all the "their/there/they're" and "your/you're" confusion.
My gosh, what have I been doing all this time? I've got to change my coarse!
Shut up, Steven, and come with me!
Its ok. This type of nitpick needed a board of it's own.
*meekly* Yes, my High Empress...
Yes, I've seen "alot" of those spelling errors.
INTERESTING IMDB LINK FOR TOS
http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0060028/goofs
Take note of the LAST ONE!
(Guess who mentioned this to IMDB.Com!)
http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0060028/goofs
(Sorry - my previous post didn't install the link for some wierd reason)
Personally, I've gotten to where I like reading the trivia that imdb provides, rather than the goofs.
Live long and prosper.
Quote from imdb:
The color of a phaser beam depends on the weapon's setting ("stun" or "kill") but the colors are inconsistent between episodes.
Has the first part of that ever been established?
imdb:
In "The Enterprise Incident", when the Romulan ships appear on screen, Chekov says they are Klingon ships, then Spock announces "Starfleet reports Romulans now using Klingon design."
Wasn't it Scotty who said they were Klingon ships?
On to Part 2.
