This one looked great. I am happy that we are now getting Trek on an HD channel, so it is really fun to watch trek weekly again, even if it is showing at midnight ;) (I guess that is what PVR's are for)

The city looks way more cool.

As I recall from many moon ago there was some controversy over this episode.  Gerrold wanted it to have a more socially critical ending.

It comes across similar to

By Any Means Necessary in Babylon 5.

Otherwise it was a kind of annoying episode.  That narration by Spock seemed very strange for Trek but I suppose there was no other quick way to get the ideas across.

Some nice shots there. Love the remastering. Wish we had them over here.
