It's not my absolute favorite, but it's in my top five and it did a hell of a job establishing the tone and themes of the series as a whole My faves in a five-way tie: The Menagerie (counted as one two-part episode) Balance of Terror WNMHGB City on the Edge of Forever Court Martial

9:27 "They had problems with.... the presence of a female first officer" -- You might want to check your facts on that. I heard that was a myth that was started by Gene Roddenberry. NBC actually liked the idea of a female first officer; they just didn't want Roddenberry's girlfriend playing the part, so he snuck her into the show by giving her a different role and a blond wig. Remember, Lucille Ball was highly influential, and predominate female roles were not usually shunned.

Something that is often lost, possibly because it's hard to convey if you weren't there, is how astonishing and exotic TOS was compared with anything else on live action TV at the time. Despite the increasing level of camp during the run, during a time when camp was a constant on TV, and the stumbles later in the series, it was obvious that TOS took SciFi seriously. The relationship between that show, the context in which it landed, and its audience isn't easily replicated no matter how much money is spent. And, while some of the spin-offs have been quite good, I've noticed that at least recently a lot of that money is spent of increasingly extravagant sets and special effects: by which I mean; yes, make planets, stars, nebula, and aliens and their worlds as believable as practical but the Enterprise in its various incarnations and other spaceships have expanded from the business-like/science & quasi-military-like original to what looks like warp capable casino/cruse ship in SNW. Helmsman Ortegas' state room seems at least 4 times the size TOS Kirk's. SNW Enterprise briefing room dwarfs that of NG's 1701D, a much larger ship. And then there's the space and atmospheric action and battle scenes which rip-off Star Wars: ships, debris, and rocks flying everywhere and in close proximity. Space is big and mostly empty and it was big and mostly empty in TOS but in SNW it's crowded--except the interior of the Enterprise. To be clear, I generally like the stories and actors in SNW, even the musical episode, but aside from a few nods to the past, the visuals have completely lost the spirit of the original: a group of brave people, huddled in their protective but fragile bubble, traveling vast distances in the hostile nothingness to explore new worlds and civilizations. SNW tries to tell the same kind of stories but shear luxury of it makes it feel less serious

I recently bought a TOS Enterprise model. And the more I look at it, the more I am amazed at its timeless and elegant design. I have never been a fanatic Star Trek fan, but that TOS ship is, in my opinion, one of the best starship designs ever. Especially when you take into account that it was designed so many decades ago.

The TOS movies were my introduction to Star Trek, then renting TNG episodes from the library. I didn't see much of TOS the show till it came to DVD.

TOS is probably my Favorite Trek series. Honestly it depends on if SNW keeps up the quality as it goes On. Also, while I mostly agree with your opinions, I take offense with the Idea that "Specter of the Gun" is forgettable. In My pov it is one of S3's strongest. Everybody is in character and they try everything they could to get out of the scenario. None of the Characters act stupid. It's a good episode.

Really in-depth and serious review without being stiff and boring. Love TOS and still learned a lot of detail here. Subscribed.

Discovery is such a wretched series, but even it was able to make me misty eyed when the Enterprise appears for the first time. I can still vividly remember the sense of wonder and hope that I felt in the 80s watching Star Trek as a pre-teen and teenager. The darker additions to the canon have their place, too, but TOS deserves praise for its unapologetic commitment to optimism regarding human potential.

I'll praise a different aspect of TOS from most: the sound. Both the sound effects and the soundtrack for TOS were beyond excellent and still stand up well.

I largely agree that TOS is probably the third best overall Star Trek show behind DS9 and TNG, in that order. Voyager is also very close, but Voyager had some wild swings in quality of writing leading it to fluxiate from being some of the best Star Trek to among the worst. Enterprise, Discovery, Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds all are relatively consistant. Picard also goes all over the place but not in the way Voyager does.

10:37 some neat promo art. It's also important to note how new colour TV was in the years leading up to TOS. The novelty of colour tv still hadn't worn off and many directors were still used to the play of light and shadow of the noir era. You can see in multiple episodes of TOS how the director can't help themselves in including some dramatic lighting in several episodes. You can note scenes where Kirk's face is shadowy, couched in darkness. It looks out of place today but it must have been incredible to watch on first airing.

i watch your videos on a separate account but i want to let you know you did a great job handling the awkward parts! it was a little fun to watch you struggle to tackle it but you did a great job

I love that about 80% of the original series episodes can we described as "the one with the ____"

It seems unlikely. It would have been quite difficult to change just Spock, they didn't have digital color correction back then, so it would have been very weird looking to have a color corrected Spock interacting with other characters. Also, not to defend racists but as far as I know, they don't have a particular problem with green people. I haven't heard of any fears that people would complain about the implied potential sexual relationship between a white man and a green girl, for instance.

ToS has the opposite problem as TNG, pretty good first and second seasons, especially for the time, obviously there are highs and lows but then the third season is incredibly goofy with lots of plainly bad episodes. Still worth watching because it's the origin of the IP

There are some weird things about the use of "starship" as a class since "constitution class" I don't think showed up on screen. so when people mention starship sometimes it is an interstellar vessel and then sometimes it is very specific to that wonderful ship that we all now and love. ("bread and circuses" and "errand of mercy" seem to infer this because they held such crews as elite and unique.

Regarding "The Squire of Gothos", the novel "Q Squared" confirmed that Trelane is a member of the Q, albeit an adolescent one. The book is set during the TNG era, and has Q effectively babysitting Trelane in an attempt to help him mature, which goes disastrously, with Trelane throwing a temper tantrum powerful enough to threaten the safety of the Enterprise. I'm not sure if the novel was ever considered canon, though.

If only 'The Chase' had been a TNG film instead of the action adventure drivel we got in Insurrection.

That mycelial network.

Havent gotten too far in this but it must have been fun researching this video. TOS both introduced a ton of stuff that would go on to inform the rest of the franchise, it also hamstrung many attempts at establishing continuity but thats more a problem of tv at that era. Studios wanted "villain of the week" stuff with little serialisation. Considering these inconsistencies, I find it so neat how we get to see these concepts take shape. For example the stardate stuff, phasers/lasers, breaking the "time barrier" and the show's approach to the now infamous "time travel shennanigans" trope. TOS even gave us our very first shuttle crash episode with "Gallieleo Seven"

I don't know about the US Navy, but Number One was the traditional address by the Captain of a Royal Navy ship to his First Lieutenant beginning in the Age of Sail, and I believe continues to this day even thought the official title is now Executive Officer.

Just FYI, a bit of trivia. When they said "black star" in Tomorrow is Yesterday, they meant a black hole. The real life terminology was still in flux at the time, and the scientific community had not settled on black hole yet. Keeping in mind of course, that black holes were only theoretical at the time, only seen in the math of general relativity and never actually observed anywhere. There was a debate on what to call such an object...they went through several terms (including black star), and eventually (not too long after Tomorrow is Yesterday), the scientific community settled on "black hole".

The series that started it all.
