Favorite Star Trek episode

Gallileo Seven
Devil In the Dark
Day of the Dove

[Earth 2 Chris]

City on the Edge of Forever is often named as the best Trek episode, but even before I knew that, it was my favorite. The story, the character bits, the bond between Kirk, Spock and Bones...it's Trek at it's best. When Kirk says "Let's get the hell out of here" at the end, that shocked me as a kid!

I always thought the creators of the "Generations" movie blew it by not having Kirk be at peace in the Nexus with Edith Keeler. A cameo by Joan Collins would have brought the house down, and made it more compelling when Picard asked Kirk to leave his happiness to help him.

Other favorites include "Mirror, Mirror", "Spectre of the Gun", "Arena", "The Enterprise Incident", "A Piece of the Action", "Amok Time", and "The Doomsday Machine".

It has to be a cross between The Balance Of Terror or The City At The Edge of Forever.

I am a bit shocked by the voting. Honestly, I expected more folks to go for the fun ones like "Trouble with Tribbles" or "A Piece of the Action"...

Patterns of Force and Spectre of the Gun

Thats them

[Brown Bear]

I'll always say #1 is Arena.

I've always liked "Devil in the Dark". It's one of the episodes that I remember best from my childhood and that remains stellar entertainment. "The Doomsday Machine" is also one that stands out in childhood and holds up incredibly well today.

After that is "Gamesters of Triskelion".

Just joking!

My favourite?

This is from a thread "Least Favorite TOS Episodes"...

I remember watching The Man Trap in the 4th Grade. It was 1966 and The Man Trap was the premiere of Star Trek. It was riveting. And the monster in its true form was horrific!

How can you not love them all, heathens?

Hard to choose just one. But Balance of Terror is at the top of my list of favs and has aged very well.

What Werewolf said.
