Peinlicherweise fällt mir auch auf, einige TOS Folgen nicht zu kennen,
oder es ist zu lange her, dass ich die sah. Wie neulich The City On The
Edge Of Forever (mit Joan Collins *rrrrrrr*), oder auch Patterns Of
Force, der in Deutschland lange verboten war.

"Patterns of Force" war nie verboten.

Doch war sie im Grunde, weil ohne FSK-Prüfung, was einer Einstufung
als "verboten" gleichkommt. Die CIC-Fassung hat eine FSK-16-Freigabe.

* Because of its subject matter (specifically the use of Nazi
uniforms and symbols in a manner banned by the German
Constitution), this episode was withheld from broadcast by the
German station that aired TOS, as large segments of the episode
were technically illegal. Austrian state-owned TV, on the other
hand, did broadcast it, although untranslated with German
subtitles (translation of the other episodes was done in Germany
and bought by Austrian TV stations). Southernmost Germany in range
of Austrian TV broadcast thus could watch the episode. In Germany
a translated version was aired in 1999, but only late at night on
pay-TV (as well as a home video release).

Die deutsche Memory-Alpha Seite gibt das leider nicht so gut wieder.

28. Shoot everything. If it blows up or dies, it was evil and deserved it. If
it survives, pick it up - it was probably a bonus.
