many of the episode's actions to be procedurally incorrect. Reviewer Darren Mooney had mixed feelings about "Court Martial" as the first episode in the Star Trek universe to serve up a courtroom story: "While its influence is absolutely massive, Court Martial is still a problematic episode." Among its flaws, Mooney wrote, is the "mess" of a script which had to be rewritten. Michelle Erica Green wrote that the episode "won't win any Emmys for legal drama, but it holds up quite well." Io9's 2014 listing of the top 100 Star Trek episodes placed "Court Martial" as the 89th best episode of all series up to that time, out of over 700 episodes. In 2019, Nerdist included this episode on their "Best of Kirk" binge-watching guide.
