The complaints about this are all focused on one thing: interpersonal relationships and social commentary doesn't belong here; Star Trek would NEVER do that. Except that is almost all they've ever done.
There were elements of the story and that were predictable, and those that were not. The acting was as good as could be asked for. I saw no editing, continuity, character, or other errors. There was a slight issue with the resolution being given the reasoning it was, but in a science fiction show that is basically Star Trek, there is far less sin here than in the show's inspiration.
Let's compare this to other episodes rated this low... is that where it really belongs? Not at all.
