9/10
6/10. It has been YEARS since I saw this episode, and I talked myself out of 3 right answers.
9 of 10. Missed number 1.
Same here.
5/10.
10/10. Kirk: Where's your Crew? Decker: I had to beam them down, we were dead weapons useless.
You got 8 out of 10
7 out of 10
10/10 332/350 My favorite episode bar none !
Yep, one of the best.
9/10 great episode. The Doomsday machine looked like a giant slug, so some salt probably would have taken care of it. William Windom did a good job as Decker. In Star trek the Motion Picture, Decker's son is The Captain that Kirk replaces.
7/10. That's bad for me. This episode is also one of the better episodes. I loved the exchange on the bridge between Spock & Decker. McCoy shoulda confined Decker to sick bay as soon as he beamed aboard the Enterprise for a complete medical.
9/10. Scotty, you've just earned your pay for the week!
9/10. My best score yet! Great episode!
7/10
10/10 Later, Commodore Decker's son became Captain Decker of the redesigned Enterprise.
10/10 one of the best episodes!
I believe that when Commodore Decker was in command of the Enterprise, it was the longest sustained combat action for the series. Fire!.......... hard about, give me some distance, Fire!......Fire!............
It's ironic that Decker's crippled Constellation not only saved the Enterprise (thanks to Scotty's repairs) from the Machine's tractor beam, but she was ultimately the instrument of the Doomsday Machine destruction.
Kudos to the tragic Decker, Kirk, Scotty and the Heroic Starship Constellation, she was a good Ship!

This episode is superbly remastered!
The original doomsday machine was kinda cheesy-looking. 🤭
10/10. One of Trek's finest episodes and a favorite of mine.
DYK? In the original script Commodore Decker survives and doesn't perish piloting the shuttlecraft into the DM.

As a matter of fact, I did know that from the old Star Trek books where James Blish edited them. Some of his edits took a little too much off though, changing the outcome, as in the case of Decker surviving the DM( according to the book rewrite.
8/10
9/10. I believe it was the same machine that Madison Wisconson-could be wrong
9 out of 10 today, missed who received the distress signal
