I was 4 months old when the first Trek episode aired... And have loved this episode ever since I first saw it in the 1970s.... And I never realized that "Atoz was "A to Z." Ha.

Mr. Atoz was played by Ian Wolfe. He was one of only about 5 Star Trek actors with speaking roles who were born in the 1800s. He was sort of about the oldest actor in Hollywood when he died in 1992. I remember reading an interview in Starlog magazine that he gave just before he died at age 95. He was the last surviving Star Trek actor to have been born in the 19th century as he passed away, just 20 days after a famous actress who starred in one of the Star Trek movies. Mr. A to Z. I wonder if they got that idea from The Wizard of Oz as that author picked out the letters for Oz while looking at a filing cabinet. This is one of a few third season episodes where they essentially only used the three starring actors. They were so cheap with budget cuts in the third season that Kirk's fencing scene (filmed at the Paramount European Town backlot) is one of one two times they used an outside shot during the third season with the other being The Paradise Syndrome with Kirk's North American Indians clones. Mariette Hartley who played Zarabeth became a popular actress for many years doing commercials with James Garner among other projects. The episode was written by Jean Lisette Aroeste (1932–2020), a Harvard and UCLA librarian. She was 1 of 4 original series writers with no prior television writing credits, and 3 of these writers were women, so I think in some ways Star Trek was just about the first science fiction show to appeal to women. She also wrote the episode Is There in Truth No Beauty?, another favorite episode by you two as I remember. I think the novels based on this episode are highly rated. Perhaps I should attempted to read them. The last episode was the last episode aired and the last episode filmed, but this episode has a later stardate in case you don't like the last episode and want to consider this to be the last episode.

I love Mr. Atoz (A to Z)!!! Perfect name for a librarian! This episode is one of my favorites and it should have been the last episode, in my opinion. Kirk's drama is just the catalyst to having Spock and Bones stuck together again. With Spock reverting back to Vulcan barbarity, only Bones can reach him. The emotions spill over and the two bond in an unspoken way. Great Star Trek! Time travel cements this as being a great story. The last scene where Kirk puts his arms on his two friends shoulders speaks more than any words could. Zarabeth's story continues in two different novels released many years later. One more episode to go. I have to admit it is emotional for me. Although there is great Star Trek to come, this series is coming to an end. Alex, the atavicron "prepares" one for their journey, blocking them from ever returning. Kirk, Spock and Bones were spared, never having been "prepared".

you guys didnt catch "havent been prepared? then you must get back immediately, if you werent prepared you will only survive a few hours here in the past." this explains that prepared people cant go back. actor who played atoz was in "bread and circuses" as the leader of the escaped slaves.

Mr. Atoz has the best name for a librarian ever. Break it up and it's A to Z.
