Publicity photo, “Miri”

About this episode, Gene Roddenbery told Daily Variety:

Kids reach their maturity at 12. As they reach maturity they go downhill. They are lovely and pure at 12… [“Miri” screenwriter] Adrian Spies and I were talking about our kids, and out came a story by him on bacteriological warfare which kills all the adults on a planet. All the children escape this, and remain children forever. The kids are three centuries old when we come on their planet. This is how sci-fi should be done – magnifying of a situation, and dramatize it. Sci-fi gives you selected magnification.“

There is a detailed account of the filming of Turnabout Intruder in the 1975 book Star Trek Lives! Co-author Joan Winston had the opportunity to spend six days on the set. Winston recalled many amusing anecdotes that took place during the shooting. William Shatner blurted out, “Spock, it’s always been you, you know it’s always been you. Say you love me too.” [x]
