Star Trek: The Original Series - "Tomorrow is Yesterday" Full Reaction!

After the mess of "The Alternative Factor," this is a welcome return to form. The dialogue is sharp, the characterizations are on point, and the story is both fun and tense at times. The only wonky part is beaming back the two Air Force personnel in a manner that won't allow them to change the future. It never has made sense to me, either, but sometimes you gotta suspend disbelief a little more than usual. Love seeing you vibe to the opening theme, Bunny, especially in your Starfleet uniform! Great reaction.

This episode had me from the moment a F-104 did a ground effect landing gear retraction followed by a 4g pullup takeoff and climb out.

Though StarFleet uses Naval rank names, the rank insignia on the sleeves of their uniforms are not equivalent with today's navy. Currently, a Naval Captain has 4 solid rings on the sleeve, but Kirk has two solid and one thin ring. That's actually the rank of a Lieutenant Commander, which is what Spock is supposed to be. Spock has two solid rings which is a Lieutenant. Captain Christoper has one thin ring which would be a Naval Ensign (The lowest Naval Officer rank). BTW, the uniform of an Ensign is far more common than any other rank so maybe that's why they gave it to him to wear. The rank of a Navy Lieutenant and an Air Force, Army, and Marine Captain are the same. A Naval Captain is the same as a Colonel in the services listed above and both are 3 grades higher than a Captain in those services. If you think that's confusing, look up the non-officer ranks commonly known as the enlisted ranks.
