I love this episode! Ever since I was a kid I've enjoyed this one and now, having watched it as an adult, I know why. Not only did the Triskelions "beam" Kirk, Uhura, and Chekov across an incredible distance through space, but they also "beamed" Ming the Merciless and Lady Gaga through space and time!!! And Lady Gaga was weird looking yet strangely attractive back then too...

Seriously, I did enjoy this episode and even though the premise is pretty iffy and Kirk totally takes advantage of Lady Gaga it's still a lot of fun. Maybe it's because he takes advantage of her that makes it so entertaining, I mean, isn't that what you would want to do in his situation?
