Why the hate on "Spock's Brain"? I know it's considered ne of the worst TOS episodes, but I enjoyed it.

For the trivia experts: the McCoy remote control device was made from "The Cage" episode's communicator.

"Spock's Brain" has an overly simplicist plot--steal the brain, find the brain, restore the brain. The writers tried to inject some "tension" into the story by having Bones lose his brain-boost in the midst of surgery, and having Spock assist in his own brain reconnection. I had trouble suspending my disbelief.

I must admit I didn't know that. If ever this becomes a Jeopardy answer...

Some of Bone's medical diagnostic instruments were from the Desilu Studio's cafeteria (salt and pepper shakers).
