I will say it did give me a chill when Old Glory came out all tattered and worn....but still flying.
Landru was good, so was every one where there was battles. Also the one where the colony was turned into sort of zombies by the spores.
Happy zombies tho.
The one where spock got violently horny?
Moral nosedive? Explain, whomever you are.
Arena
Mathew Byrd is a douche bag.
Omega glroy is one that doesn't belong on their list. The reasoning that the Yangs(America) is superior is bad just shows how biased and leftist the author is. No one is saying that Americans are superior to Chinese racially. But culturally and economically we were and our political system as its intended still is.
Savage curtain, well maybe they're a little harsh.
Spock's brain? I don't know. I do know that it aired a lot when I was younger so I have a bias against it but there's a logical reason why spock is still alive, Vulcans are built differently.
The episodes I would say that are bad are the one where Tasha Yar Dies. (she was bada$$ and should've stuck around longer) The episode about Barclay's hologram fantasies, the one where Kirk finds that nomad probe that wants to sterilize everyone and most of the episodes of Deep Space Nine.
Also, the animated series was never touched on.
That was one of my favorite episodes. I confess that even as a kid I thought the idea of the parallels being so precise were a bit hokey. Still, a very powerful reading of the declaration of independence by Kirk.
The Devil in the Dark
Ahh, Kodos.
The plays’ the thing!
I just saw my guilty pleasure TOS ep the other day — everyone’s an android. Hawt android tells Kirk to kiss her. he says “illogical” — she gives Kirk (android version) the biggest F U ever and phasers him the hell out of existence. She didn’t even say “what do you mean that was a copy?”
The Voyage Home
The Trouble with Tribbles
I called TNG “star trek for women”.
Spock’s Brain
Devil in the Dark ...
"Matt, you'll be killed" ... ep?
“Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra!”
I saw this episode like ten years ago and then when I started doing Bible studies it resonated with me. See, I wondered how many things are in the Bible that are taken literally that were actually metaphors? The meanings of those metaphors are lost to time so we’re taking them seriously.
Like when you call something ‘cool’ or ‘wicked’. It’s a metaphor but say in two thousand years people read about how things were cool and wicked in the 20th and 21st centuries and they might wonder how cold it was and how evil our culture was because they don’t know these metaphors.
Hey! You are not of the body!
Get with the program! We are prequeling The Purge!
The overpopulation episode was “The Mark of Gideon”. The half=black half-white episode was” Let This Be Your Last Battlefield “, co-starring the late, great Frank Gorshin.
