Star Trek episode "'I, Mudd" airs 1967


Possibly the funniest episode (Episode 8, Season 2) of the Star Trek: The Original Series, I, Mudd aired November 3, 1967.  Although the beginning promises to be drama, the episode soon becomes quite entertaining.  Harcourt (Harry) Fenton Mudd returns on a planet populated only by androids.  They seize command of the Enterprise and take everyone prisoner on the planet.

Capt. Kirk, Spock and the crew devise a way to defeat the army of beautiful female androids but keep a special punishment for Harry Mudd.

Roger C. Carmel is the only actor other than the regulars to play the same character twice during the run of the series.
