So they introduced fucking MAGIC to a fictional reality that already has teleporters, faster-than-light space travel, and a universe full of anthropoid alien races.
This shouldn't annoy me nearly as much as it does.
Eh, plenty of the original series episodes had magic and telekinesis and other such bullshit in it. And Vulcans have always had some level of psychic ability too.
The bizarre thing is that a very few of the animated episodes are actually much less ridiculous than norma; and decent expansions to the series, if you can believe that.
The Harry Mudd one is an example, of course. You can't go wrong with Harry Mudd.
Oh, no doubt about that. The original series had space hippies, a planet where thoughts materialized, rock-beings that re-created Abraham Lincoln and Genghis Khan, an planet full of 20th-century Romans that spoke colloquial English, and "Spock's Brain". You could interchange any of that with any of the animated series and I doubt people would notice.
This is pretty ridiculous even by "Star Trek" standards though.
