Nnnnnnnnnnnot ridiculous given the time it was set in; they were still trying to desegregate and do away with the Jim Crow laws in the US South at the time the episode aired. Showing the confusion and then the horror on the multicultural crew's faces was absolutely a big Zing! that needed to zung,IMO. Same with "Balance of Terror" tbph, watching it today, it looks like the bigotry against Spock is soooooo heavyhanded, but in sad, actual fact,at the time, it was not.

Again, the fact that the anvil needed to be dropped does not change that it was overacted, overdirected, and in every conceivable way, ridiculous.

Hammy acting, overuse of closeups and dutch angles does nothing to serve the the racial lesson it was trying to teach.
