I always remembered this episode because of Lincoln. It was the first time I ever saw a impersonator of him. In my mind at such a young age it was how I imagined him to be. When I saw him die a "second" time I felt empty, almost like crying. Its a great episode.
I don’t consider this a great episode by any means myself, but I can relate to what you said, as this episode was one of my earliest recollections of Abraham Lincoln.
Col. Green 's uniform is the same Robin Williams wore when Mork premiered lol ! This was a great story . Actor portraying Lincoln was awesome ! Star Trek has stood the test of timei over 50 yrs later!
I don't care how many snotty remarks people make. With no budget, lousy sets and a studio working to kill them off, the show created an unforgettable premise that fearlessly tackled big questions in ways Lucasfilms and Marvel never have.
You’re right about the original Star Trek series. But you’re sour opinion of Lucasfilm is wrong. That first Star Wars film inspired an entire generation of children and new filmmakers. That was also a script that no studio wanted to touch. And btw, Star Trek The Motion Picture was made because of Star Wars. They are both equally influential. Don’t forget this.
I love how Colonel Green hides behind a rock whilst the main fighting is going on. This episode brought up such a vivid visage of the character despite the fact he was merely a duplicate.
Excellent show.... so glad Lucille Ball gave the show funding and support in the beginning or we'd never have known this most fabulous series 👏... Bravo.... ❤
When Lincoln woke up at Ford's theater , he was about to tell his wife about the crazy dream he just had, when John Wilkes Booth took that fatal shot. 4/14 , 1865.
something to do with American sanctifying their icons, so that Lincoln=Christ, and was victim of the most renowned act of terrorism ever, even eclipsing 9/11. Had he not been assassinated, he was likely to die early of general bad health or, given his depression, even suicide (which would have enlightened attitudes to mental illness). Far more important assassinations were Henry IV of France or William the Silent of the Netherlands, who had already taken history down unanticipated routes in a manner that was long-term progressive, and would probably have done more of the same
@D Sullivan quite probably, but he might not have lived long enough to do anything with the probability of natural death or suicide; dying by murder made his death more of a loss for mythology purposes
i will have to admit all these years, that rock monster VOICE is one of the unique sound effects i've ever listened too ! and its display of power, unique........""WE CAME IN PEACE !"..........."and you may GO in peace !"..........and that ladies and gentlemen is what happens when you play at someone elses house..........they get too call the shots !........................whats essential to this episode kirk and spock couldn't deploy their usual analysis to over come the hosts.............they were lucky to leave at all ! good episode !
“Your good and your evil use the same methods, achieve the same results. Do you have an explanation?” Good question by the rock creature. Always liked the Col. Green character too. I think the guy that played him was a big Star Trek fan and probably attended some of the conventions wearing a red jumpsuit. “Col. Green you had the reputation of moving against your adversaries in the midst of negotiations. Why captain that was centuries ago and not altogether true, no there is much I would do differently now if I could, don’t let rumor and innuendo sway you.” The original episodes were well written.
This character was not only extremely creative in shape and form but also his power to transmute atoms, cells, and molecules, molecular reconstruction, and last but certainly and definitely not least his curiosity and intelligence was frighteningly and haunting enough to what lengths and measures he went to just to decipher and investigate human frailty, morality, and rationality. It would seem that this alien being with the nigh incalculable powers it possessed was entertained by the conflict for his own private enjoyment. I love it with all my heart and soul, great episode and thanks so much the clip.
Genghis Khan Colonel Green Kahless Zora The evil side. Captain Kirk Mr Spock Abraham Lincoln Surak. The good side. My favorite part was when Yarnek would snap his claws after stating " Here are your opponents." Always made me laugh.
Can you imagine what the mission reports from the crew of the Enterprise must read like from Starfleet Command's perspective? 'Touched down on planet at 3:59pm local time. President Lincoln was located, but was pronounced dead on arrival by myself and the landing party. Ambushed by Genghis Khan and Klingon reinforcements at 4:12 pm local time. 4:15 pm - Landing party encountered a talking dung heap with light bulbs for a mouth, we discussed the genealogy of human morality and left in peace.'
🤣 This made my day!🤣 You'd think at this point Starfleet Command would go, " you know what Kirk, maybe we don't really need to know what's going on out there..!"
A. Lincoln: Oh thank goodness. An alternate universe. I got shot in the head in the last universe. Kirk: um, Mr. President, I think you have a spear sticking out of your back A. Lincoln: damn-it!
The original Star Trek beats anything & everything made today, despite all of the special effects they have today or maybe because of it. Back then they had no special effects, no computers etc, so they had to rely on great story lines & fantastic acting.
I know someone that fights like Kirk and maybe even better Mr. berry176, James West (Robert Conrad) of the Wild Wild West. It would've been amazing and interesting if television executives constructed a situation where they both met and teamed up with each other, it would be quite amazing if you ask me.
@@Zorro9129 I would say that you failed to fully appreciate all the moral education in Star Trek. I've studied Philosophy and Ethics extensively. Most any name or vocab word you could think of from around the world. The Secular Humanism and Rational Materialism of Star Fleet beats them all, hands down - and is still what I believe now. Tho as a little kid, I didn't know it had a name
@@justsomeguy3931 That simply confirms it for me, as I regard secular humanism as one of humanity's greatest follies and made-up religions. It has no real moral anchor except for a vague or contrived "feel-goodism" that can be easily adapted by actors to fit their own interests. In other words, it is not real morality at all.
@@justsomeguy3931 No, I believe in Natural Law (or "the Dao," as C.S. Lewis would put it) which is a morality that all great religions abide by, in whole or in part. One must love his family and kin, respect strangers, care for one's elders as well as one's children, etc. Any attempt to replace this with a "scientific" formulation is bound to fall short, as every ideology which rejects Natural Law unconsciously channels some of its tenets, while repudiating others. The only real alternative to traditional morality is therefore a total selfishness or Egoism. Secular humanism cannot and will not lead to "better" humans any more than the fad ideology-religions from the 18th to 20th century have. In terms of practical ethics, it is far simpler yet useful to follow the principle of "do not initiate aggression" similar to what Lysander Spooner believed. If society considered that one principle it would be by no means perfect yet it would be much more civil, yet secular humanism does not follow it beyond lip service.
Colonel Green was the last red shirt to die in Star Trek TOS. I wished that he was spared, and used for Starfleet covert missions. Doing Starfleet's dirty work would suit him perfectly.
Genghis definitely runs off (following Zora who ran off early in the fight), but it looks like Kahless was speared in the stomach by Kirk and left to die. Green may have been stabbed in the back by his own short spear, or otherwise simply knocked out by blunt trauma. The Excalbian says "the others have run off," but I assume he means the two others who weren't dispatched by Kirk, and Kahless and Green were dead or unconscious at that point.
Thankfully col greene and zora chickened out. ThIs allowed spock to hold ghengis khan in a tie while Kirk trounces !!!KAHLESS THE UNFORGETTABLE!!!. He then finishes ghengis for spock and gives green the (houston) "fist to the face" technique at 2:11 What a stud!
The way I see it between Spock and Sarek, there were 2 Vulcans who could've nerve pinched all 4 of the evil duplicates early on during the first confrontation. They could've then tied them all up and this should've demonstrated to the Rock Creature that good was stronger than evil, satisfying the rock creature's quest for knowledge to see which was stronger.
Yes, he does doesn't he Mr. Gary Rockfield? Yarnek the Excalbian was a very powerful character being able to manipulate energy and matter in whatever way he chose to do so.
Kirk: I actually feel I have met Lincoln. Spock: And I too Sarek. Perhaps in an sense they were real, since they were created out of our own thoughts, how could they be anything other than what we expected them to be? Uhura: Captain, the planet has resumed its normal appearance. (Meaning, if you beam your butt down there now you will beam into a pool of boiling lava!!) I was hoping they would show this conversation.
Hey, anybody else notice that around 1:13, Spock is suddenly replaced by what appears to be a black dude in a Beatles wig and elf ears who is about four inches shorter and forty pounds heavier?
No, it's not advantage enough. I want to make sure the odds are in our favour. Overwhelm and devastate, that's the way to get power and to hold it, and I mean to do that.
@@hammeringhank5271 Maybe Vulcans only seem much stronger to 25th century humans who were never bred to live outside, endure hardship and survive only as long as they could fight.
Vulcans are three times stronger than equally athletic humans. A well-trained human could conceivably take on a Vulcan in battle, as Kirk did during Spock's Pon Farr.
The moment Colonel Green dies. He has a smile on his face. Funny how none of these duplicates bleed after they get pierced by spears and stakes made from wood that is also an illusion.
That inhabitant did, and responded to Kirk’s we came in peace, with, and you may go in peace. Essentially giving him the bird. Why my favorite episode when first time watching.
Landing crew of the enterprise against history of earth great leaders , this is obvious a base match. A lot such as a basing match in a game to describe it full - Subspace Continuum.

A great episode...Lincoln was awesome
A wild and crazy episode. But it was sad to see Abraham Lincoln die.
Yes, I agree
Yes Any, I really didn't like that myself. In fact, it not only pissed me off but it seriously made me very sad too.

The original episodes of Star Trek were a masterpiece
Genghis Khan
Colonel Green
Kahless
Zora
The evil side.
Captain Kirk
Mr Spock
Abraham Lincoln
Surak.
The good side.
My favorite part was when Yarnek would snap his claws after stating " Here are your opponents." Always made me laugh.
I love how dejected Kirk sounds when he said "we came in peace"

Col. Green "Overwhelm and Devastate, thats how you win!!!!"
General Schwarzkopf
1 of my favorite episodes. Seen all numerous times since the 1970s.
Hi the name of this episode
Many people hate this episode. But it is great old fashioned space opera.
Bart LaRue's voice as the creature was great as always.
as a kid I always thought Colonel Green was such an intriguing character. I wish that they had done more with him in subsequent episodes.
He played a role in ST: ENTERPRISE
He may have been a subtle caricature of Commander Rockwell, who was a political activist around that time until his assassination.
Colonel Green was around during the time of Khan Noonian Singh. 1990's
I agree with that one.
I found him utterly despicable and two faced, cruel and selfish. He caused Lincoln to be killed. He was EVIL and he led the others into evil.
"Help me Spock."
This show, and episode in particular, taught me all I ever needed to know about good and evil as a kid
It's a great show, but if it taught you "all that you needed to know" then you didn't get a proper moral education.

That Good strives for a selfless goal. Evil strives for selfish goals.

@@WarThunder-zt4xw Very good reply and response, I'm impressed with that.
@@brianpaschal5430 Thank You kindly Sir!
The guy who played Genghis Khan also played the giant axe man against a bare handed Cain in 'Kung Fu'.
Kirk would have taken out enemies of the 24th century with his double jump kick and only have a ripped shirt and a bloody lip.
William shatner was gorgeous when he was young
Also highly unlikely Ghengis Khan or Khaless would have run off.Evil does not always" run off when confronted " ..
Indeed, evil people tend to be prideful and pride does lend itself to courage, albeit a destructive and negative kind.
The real Kahless would certainly not have run off.
U R RIGHT bob.............but they only have about 48-50mins including commercials to tell the story !
You are correct, but non the less, it must be confronted, the alternative is to let evil have its way. So, much of that in the our world.
Genghis definitely runs off (following Zora who ran off early in the fight), but it looks like Kahless was speared in the stomach by Kirk and left to die. Green may have been stabbed in the back by his own short spear, or otherwise simply knocked out by blunt trauma. The Excalbian says "the others have run off," but I assume he means the two others who weren't dispatched by Kirk, and Kahless and Green were dead or unconscious at that point.
That red jumpsuit is looks like Mork from "Mork and Mindy". Nanu-nanu.
It is the recycled suit piece. Also, Mork’s helmet came from “The Outer Limits” (1963)
That Klingon that said "Help me Spock" is Klingon Jesus that was introduced in Star Trek the next Generation with Worf as a clone.
Thats actually a pretty decent Lincoln likeness...
Kirk put a nice move on Green. Dropped him on his own weapon.
@0:24 Kahless, the Klingon troll.
Kahless is a hero.of Worf"s on TNG,.He was the founder of the Klingon Empire.And to think.Kirk got to fight his duplicate.
I love very much watching every single episode of Star Trek: The Original Series or Star Trek: The Next Generation very much whenever I am confined to staying at home during this quarentine as much as possible. ©®

Dang, this still holds up
One of my top 5 faves. Brilliant music.
"Now can you cry like Lincoln?" -- ouch.
Brilliant and profound writing.
2:04 to 2:14 , nicely done fight scene, Bill Shatner was in fine shape whereby a stand in stuntman wouldn't work in this scene.
Yes,I should;”applaude’Lucille Ball ⚽️ for helping fund this marvelous show,too!And,it’s nice to remember the Star Trek crew,like;”old friends!’
The red jump suit Col. Green is wearing is actually Morks outfit from Mork and Mindy....it doesn't have the silver triangle on the front though.
Absolute piece of genius 👏 I love William shatner
And jesus loves you
Yarnek would make a good Halloween costume.
Janos Prohaska is the man!
This episode is a classic I'm facing this sort of situation in my flat with a neighbour I do martial arts to defeat evil
when I watch these old videos, I feel like it was Kirk and friends going for a joy ride thru space
A great episode.
The 60s were full of shows that have great imagination because the competition they were getting from films.
"Scotty, two to beam up. And, after we are aboard, blow this Planet into forkin' BITS!"
I like how the giant turd dried up at the end.
😂
I think you are incredible William shatner a real inspirational person 👏 I love you so much so does jesus christ
Ghengis Khan a 6' giant? I don't think so. Weren't the mongols generally short?
Behold! The spectacle ! You may go in peace ....This papermache outfit with the blinking lights is hot. and i need out ! ;)
I love the cookie turd monster!
😂
Thankfully col greene and zora chickened out. ThIs allowed spock to hold ghengis khan in a tie while Kirk trounces !!!KAHLESS THE UNFORGETTABLE!!!. He then finishes ghengis for spock and gives green the (houston) "fist to the face" technique at 2:11
What a stud!
The way I see it between Spock and Sarek, there were 2 Vulcans who could've nerve pinched all 4 of the evil duplicates early on during the first confrontation. They could've then tied them all up and this should've demonstrated to the Rock Creature that good was stronger than evil, satisfying the rock creature's quest for knowledge to see which was stronger.
We wouldn't have a story then would we? If everything could be solved so easily.
Also in a very peaceful manner. Perhaps the nerve pinch wasn't known to Vulcans of Surak's time.
Green is the Man!!!!
Ngl, Klingon uniforms have always been my favorite in every era.
A memorably cheesy episode, but the rock creature does make some intelligent points at the end
Yes, he does doesn't he Mr. Gary Rockfield? Yarnek the Excalbian was a very powerful character being able to manipulate energy and matter in whatever way he chose to do so.
Kirk: I actually feel I have met Lincoln.
Spock: And I too Sarek. Perhaps in an sense they were real, since they were created out of our own thoughts, how could they be anything other than what we expected them to be?
Uhura: Captain, the planet has resumed its normal appearance.
(Meaning, if you beam your butt down there now you will beam into a pool of boiling lava!!) I was hoping they would show this conversation.
As was stated in a the Omega glory episode, Good shall always beat evil
Help me Kirk....HELP ME KIRK!!
Hey, anybody else notice that around 1:13, Spock is suddenly replaced by what appears to be a black dude in a Beatles wig and elf ears who is about four inches shorter and forty pounds heavier?
I always wondered what powers they were going to give the evil team?
No, it's not advantage enough. I want to make sure the odds are in our favour. Overwhelm and devastate, that's the way to get power and to hold it, and I mean to do that.
William shatner incredible incredible 👏 love you both and Leonard nimmoy jesus christ loves you so do l
Reminds me of this presidential election what the alien says to kirk about tactics
how can a people not understand between good and evil. and still survive.
Star Trek is for adults. Star Wars is for children.
This was a cool episode, the only slightly cheesy part was the occasional weird grunting during the battle lol!
Put a warning beacon out in space to keep people away from these evil glowbulb rock people.
Talking rocks, Abraham Lincoln, and they said lost in space was silly!
With all that fighting you would of thought Kirk could of least of torn his shirt.
Is Attila the Hun really stronger than Spock?
Evenly matched, I would say. It was a back-and-forth struggle, neither able to defeat the other.
+SingleTax but Spocks Vulcan he should be much stronger
Spock should have had an advantage, despite Gengis Kahn's size.

Yes, we'll go in peace. And once I'm back aboard the Enterprise I'll have every Photon torpedo aimed at this planet then fired.

If the rock-aliens didn’t understand good and evil, how could they set up the sides of good and evil to fight?
Whoa! Now that's a thought.

I missed this episode, what was the Definition between good and evil Kirk tried to teach?
If you have netflix you can catch it there.
Some else already said it, but to reiterate: That Good strives for a selfless goal, but Evil strives for a selfish one.
It comes down to why are you fighting and what are you trying to achieve.
I wonder if Coronel Greene's back story ever made it into the modern franchises.

Kirk basically whips all 3 of them, even saving Spock who has the strength of 5 humans as I recall.
