I was a college student when the original series aired and, of course, have watched since. I need to make reference to a specific episode in a writing project. I recall an episode in which an external brain-only entity was a key part of that episode. Is my memory correct? And, if so, can someone tell me the name of that episode? Thank you.
Not a Trekkie, have question

I wager 80 quatloos on Gamesters of Triskelion
Could be a spoof or maybe you're thinking of Sargon?

Could have been the parasites from Deneva as well considering they were part of a much larger brain creature! (or was that in the novel?)

Spock's brain spent a certain amount of time outside his skull, chatting with Kirk. I can't remember the name of the episode, though....
At least we were spared the sight of seeing his skull noodles in 'Spock's Brain', unlike 'Gamesters' where multicolored plastic 'brains' were shown. Ugh!
chuckle.
Sargon, Thalassa and Henoch in "Return to Tomorrow" weren't disembodied brains, though -- they were minds preserved as pure energy (though they had once had humanoid bodies).
And they glowed!

You are correct! I completely forgot about the dim bulbs that illuminated the plastic brains.

This wouldn't be a disparaging remark about the writers, would it?
Good point. I guess it could go either way. Dim bulbs.
OMG, what the hell is that??! LOL!!...or "The Brain from Planet Arous"
