Upon their arrival at the planet Gamma Hydra IV to resupply the Federation science team stationed there, the Enterprise crew is shocked to discover that all of the colonists have died or are dying of a bizarre affliction that has caused them to age rapidly. But soon after beaming back to the Enterprise, Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock and the rest of the landing party find that they too have started aging at an accelerated rate -- that is, all except Mr. Chekov, the reasons for which could provide the key to their survival. With less than a week to live until their bodies give out -- and less time than that before senility sets in -- it's a race against time to find a cure and reverse the aging process. The hits just keep on coming in "The Deadly Years," a provocative, superbly-acted and emotionally resonant Season 2 episode that is far better than it is often given credit for. Chalk it up to a concept that has gained relevancy over the years, especially among longtime fans who have come to relate to its themes, resulting in an unqualified "Star Trek" classic that has quite literally gotten better with age.
