I feel like I am one of the few who really enjoyed "Enterprise" when it was first aired. The scheduling was terrible and it moved around time slots and days so I watched about half of the first season then they moved the time slot then I found it late one night (11:30 on Friday) with the third...

A probe does not have to be manned. Maybe he was just the project manager.

The Squire of Gothos - Always hated this episode as a kid, Trelane's performance was too over-the-top even as a kid; its one of the only ones I disliked. I have grown to like it a little more but not more than the other selections below! The Man Trap Where No Man Has Gone Before The Naked Time...

Generalize much???

Turnabout Intruder?

That same pattern is in "Catspaw" (which may have been its first appearance in the series).

The last episode I saw for the first time was "Balance of Terror." I remember reading about it and when I finally saw it, it was amazing so I always have remembered it as being the last episode I had watched for the first time. This would have been in the very early 70's.

Many of the the fx shots in TOS still hold up IMO, although some are terrible. It would be interesting to match-up the fx shots with the companies that produced the footage. I believe there were at least 3 different companies that produced the effects shots for the series. I wonder if certain...

I always liked Chekov and did feel like he added appeal to younger viewers; it certainly worked for me!

Growing up in the 60's and 70's without the benefit of the internet; I thought I was the only one who enjoyed Star Trek. I read about conventions but it seemed like a fantasy, thousands of like-minded Trek fans gathering. It was not until the internet that I realized there are a few of us out...

Classic!!

For those who have not read it, there is a great three part series on the production of the episode titled "The Alternative Factor" - What the Hell Happened? Well worth the read! Part 1: https://startrekfactcheck.blogspot.com/2016/12/the-alternative-factor-what-hell.html Part 2...

The yeoman's duty appears to be collecting data documenting everything.

Why questionable? It is pretty common and prudent to establish a perimeter. They did not really have man power to leave more than one at that location. Scotty could not do it, he was working, McCoy was not qualified, Spock was commanding so that would not be a good idea, Yeoman Mears was not...

I like "Turnabout . . . " "If only, if only" seems like a great, prophetic ending line for the series.

Rand was in the early outlines and teleplays of the script. Her part was changed to Mears after Whitney's unceremonious departure on September 8th, 1966

But the two scenarios are totally different, Spock was trapped by the boulder. All things being equal, I just don't see Spock doing something illogical but Blssdwif makes a good point about the most probable people who could survive until rescue. In the episode, however, they seemed to imply...

I totally disagree, Spock would have been logical in his decision and it is not logical for the most valuable member of the Galileo crew to stay behind. It would not have been Spock, McCoy or Scott staying while some ensigns took off back to the Enterprise; it's not logical. Now Kirk, he would...

The engines could have had some sort of automatic shut off or idle setting based on no input from the crew or maybe because of a designed safety feature based on the sensor readings of the unstable region they were in. If engaging the engines would have thrown them into a different dimension, I...
