RVR II's Star Trek thread.. Cause it's sure to veer off course!

I wish they would rerecord the TNG theme with a fucking huge orchestra.  The tv version always seemed weak compared to the theatrical version, either that or Jerry Goldsmith is really the only one who can conduct it?

The sexiest monster would have to be Ardra from "Devil's Due"

She was a favorite of Donald Belisario. She played Magnum's wife on that series, and was a Japanese (!?) princess in "Tales of the Gold Monkey."

Hey, what are your top five favorite episodes? I am not going to rewatch the series again, just the really good episodes


Oh, and I mean of TOS. I have only gotten to episode 2 of TNG.

I couldn't limit myself to 5, here's a bunch of my favorites randomly picked:

Balance of Terror
The Doomsday Machine
Amok Time
The Devil In The Dark
Obsession
The Trouble with Tribbles
Assignment Earth
The City On The Edge Of Forever
Space Seed
Court Martial
The Menagerie

Don't get discouraged, some of those first season episodes stink real bad, but it improves drastically in season 2.

There are some bad ones in season 2 as well.  "The Royale", and the season ends with a clip show, the last clip show in Star Trek history if I am correct.  Though the Borg are introduced in season 2 which leads to Best of Both Worlds.

Yeah, the writers strike held that season back a bit, without the strike season 2 might have reached season 3 levels of goodness.

I have def heard that about TNG. I think my issue is that I want to know TOS episodes inside and out before I move on to TNG.



I mean...Kirk vs Picard? No contest!


Also, Data annoys the piss out of me.


But oh....Commander Ryker....*drooooooooool*

Awesome! The ones in bold I watched recently, but I will watch the rest of your suggestions.

Also, I would like to add "Who Mourns Adonis." I liked the idea that the time of TOS has outgrown God/Gods.

How can you make a list of Star Trek episodes and not mention the classic piece of literature that is entitled Spock's Brain?!

[MartyS (Gromit)]

Brain? What is brain?
