Adam's guitar

Sorry to say I don't know.
But this reminds me that very cool part at the end of the episode where Spock says-over his 'dead' body- "His name was Adam." and the soundtrack has a guitar strum and his finger moves as if strumming the guitar.
Did they think of that in editing when they noticed his finger move or did they plan for his hand to move (unlikely) or did they not even notice his hand move when they were editing the episode?

I never noticed that before, thanks for mentioning it.
I don't know very much about the various online trek communities. Does anyone knows of other places where I should look or info on Adams guitar or post a question?

Search here for the props thread. A lot of knowledgeable people were posting there, and would probably respond.

Thanks, I'll give it a go.
I think this episode is one of worst ever in all of Trek.

I think it can be easily salvaged. Yeah, the cheesy 60s tunes and lingo is too much, but the message behind it is a sound one.
What's the message behind it?
I can imagine Mr. Solow not liking this episode too much.
You mean Herbert F. Solow, the executive in charge of production of "Star Trek", yeah, maybe. According to IMDB it looks like he left after the second season, episode "Bread and Circuses", March 15, 1968 and "The Way to Eden" was a third season episode.
By the way, I saw the actor James Doohan (Mr. Scott) at Trek Convention in the mid 1980s in Baltimore and someone asked him what was his favorite episode and worst episode of "Star Trek". He said his favorite was "The Doomsday Machine" because it was couched in so much technology (or science). He said his worst was "The Way to Eden".

Yep, that's "HERBERT".
Shatner gave some examples of HERBERT behavior in one of his books. One story is about the time Nimoy was trying to get a phone installed in his dressing room. There was only one phone on set and everybody was expected to use it.
After weeks of getting nowhere with the phone Nimoy was getting really angry.
I love it, actually! And it's a great companion piece to the "Batman" Louie the Lilac (Milton Berle) episodes.
