I don't think there's anyone who would view this today and not see the ending coming a mile off. The idea of a god, or a ruler or the like being a computer has been done a few times now, and I wonder if this is one of the first examples of it. Not a great episode, but mildly diverting, with an interesting religious subtext. |
