Just as captivating as it was when I first saw it . . . about 56 years ago by now.

How did you see this 56 years ago? It didn't air on television for the first time until 1988. It was a big deal, Patrick Stewart hosted, saying it had just been compromised and was the first time the public would get to see it.

@@henrybrowne7248 Nope, I watched this in the United States. It was the summer between the end of TNG first season and at the end of The Cage they showed a big teaser trailer for Season two, showing off Will Riker with the beard playing a trombone.. The Cage was just never officially aired until then except as part of The Menagerie. I was so happy that I had gotten to see the "original broadcast" of even one single episode of TOS.

The sound of those swaying leaves is forever captivating! What brilliance!

trust me when I first saw this episode as a kid, I had no idea what I was watching but it was something I wanted to understand. Took me a few years but I got it. Way ahead of its time.

Still holds up after nearly sixty years.

Fans of Forbidden Planet will notice a lot of similarities to The Cage. Star Trek was heavily influenced by that film.

Interesting little factoid - the scientist in the foreground had more appearances on TOS than any non-regular cast member. He was also in "Return of the Archons" and "For the World is Hollow and I have Touched the Sky."

As a kid I always fantasized about being in an illusion reality with her.

As a youngster, I could never figure out how imagined survivors could think and talk to each other while the landing party was talking to them. It was almost as if they were fully developed men. After watching it several times, it hit me that is how powerful was the Talosians' ability to create illusions, as they could conjur up ones who could think and operate on their own.

Gonna put some blue flowers outside, and have this sound coming out of wired hidden speaker.

I just tuned into "For the World is Hollow..." and noticed something I hadn't before: The music that accompanies the entrance of the old man played by Jon Lormer is the same Alexander Courage music that played during his appearance as Dr. Theodore Haskins in "The Cage."

That's interesting ! I hadn't noticed it either.

At the beginning, you can see a captain's hat on the table-top in Pike's cabin. Never noticed that before. I wish they had kept that for the Starfleet uniforms.

@@henrybrowne7248 Thx. Lol I like to maintain a database of famous people and celebrities who are otherwise noteworthy or have other talents. Like if they were once in the military or were hams or pilots or something. Yeah, I'm a nerd. This may be common knowledge, but DeForest Kelly served in WWII in the Army Air Force in a motion picture unit. Gene Roddenberry flew 89 combat missions in WWII. He was a B-17 pilot. He later spent 6 years as an LAPD officer. Leonard Nimoy enlisted in the Army Reserve in 1953. There are several other people in different episodes I found. From Wikipedia and other online sources, so..... 🙂
