Without the nonsense of the modern "re-imagineers," this episode would have been all about establishing contact with the alien culture. Instead, it's all about the goofy, dopey hijinx involved in Spock's impossible reconstruction. But why use Nurse Chapel's model to fix him? Why assume she was the model? There IS a viable scientific answer, but we don't hear it; we just hear clumsy lines like Chapel to the aliens, "You messed him up!" Scientific. And the aliens? Named Blue and Yellow; what happens when the writers run out of crayons.
AND MIA KIRSHNER REPLACES JUNE LOCKHART?! Garbage. Utter disrespect.
