The reason why I think this episode is so poor is the story is just plain stupid, the characters are made to be stupid, especially Spock, there is little or no parts for characters like Scottie, Sulu, Ohura, Bones, I mean even Yeoman Rand would have helped and I hated her! Her role does however seem almost as if it were inserted by the producers as an afterthought.

The forthcoming book promised to reveal, "the surprising and dramatic story of how Season One’s most criticized episode, The Alternative Factor went awry and became a jumbled mess." There's way too much repetition throughout: Kirk and some crew beam down to a planet's surface, they go back up to the Enterprise, then back down to the planet, over & over, it seems, with no results; Lazarus falls off a cliff a 2nd time...or is it a 3rd?

There's also confusion on whether Kirk is dealing with a time traveler here or hopping to parallel dimensions (better realized in "Mirror,Mirror" early in the 2nd season). I thought it was interesting that when interviewed not long ago, Brown described Leonard Nimoy as "morose"on the set.

At the right temperature, several hundred degrees, steam insulates the water drop and it lasts much longer than at a higher or lower temperature.

Robert Brown was born on November 17, 1926 in Trenton, New Jersey, USA as Robin Adair MacKenzie Brown.

I agree with comments about the exceptionally hokey science, repetitive and confused action and dialogue, plus repeated procedural incompetence (and slowness on the uptake about what is going on), by Star Fleet officers and crew in this episode. The acting by Robert Brown as the mad (matter) Lazarus was over the top by even my standards (I consider Shatner an excellent actor) although his sane twin was done much better. This episode of TOS suffered from a mediocre script and very average directing. Summary from Gilda F: "A tragedy in an alternate universe, and the animosity it creates between that Kirk and Spock, threatens the bond shared by them in this universe.". Robert Brown does a fair job of performing the rather maniacal Lazarus -an interesting biblical allusion, but a bit difficult to interpret the meaning given the character. In "The Alternative Factor", the Enterprise discovers a strange blip in the universe. However, the execution of this story and the faulty pace of this episode is rather deplorable.

I would not see them until I was in my 30's so it's possible that not having seen them first as a child has made me less open to liking the, or it may be that they are just bad episodes; for me, I don't think I'm reaching too far by labeling them bad.
