She had a five year mission, that spans decades!

Favorite TOS episode?

Postby Gatsby on 19 Aug 2009, 11:13

Episodes that are actually good: City on the Edge of Forever is my favorite, and the episode I pick when I attempt to convert friends to Trekkies. ;) The script is fabulous, the acting is fantastic [s]for TOS[/s], and . . . okay, there's some cheese, but altogether, it's quite heart-wrenching.

Episodes enjoyed for the lulz: Catspaw is the funniest thing to MST with a group of friends ever.

Episodes enjoyed for both reasons: I also love Squire of Gothos simply because the titular character is such a delightfully hammy fella, along the lines of Q, who is probably my favorite TNG-and-later character. It's also one of the first episodes I saw that convinced me that hey, Star Trek's pretty swell, so I guess there's an element of nostalgia there.

How about you? Which episodes to you enjoy in spite of the cheesiness, and which do you enjoy because of the cheesiness? :D

I always found Mudd to be an enjoyable character. So any episodes he appeared in are def among my favorites.

He is a fun character. I don't remember much about Mudd's Women for some reason, but I, Mudd is one of my favorite episodes, if only to watch the Enterprise crew being all, y'know, illogical. :D I'd love it if the reboot series brought Mudd in with their own twist.

Even without a twist, if he;'s well cast and well wrote, then he'd be awesome fun.
