Only if you subscribe to the notion that all the shows in the poll are "quality" shows. My take on this one is Mirror, Mirror is just over the top hammy camp, COTEOF is maudlin and Amok Time exists just so that people will say "Wow...Vulcans only f*** every seven years??"

Whereas "Balance Of Terror" is just an inferior rip-off of "The Enemy Below" and "The Doomsday Machine" is about blowing things up and features one of the most over-the-top hammy guest appearences in Trek history.

Gee, that eliminates all five episodes.

Are the 3 you voted for your 3 all-time favs? If not, what are they? Mine are BOT, Squire & (maybe) Naked Time.

I can't speak for UWCD, but the two I voted for are two of my all time favorites. The rest didn't make it this far.

And UWCD, given a choice of five derivative, cheesy, melodramatic eps, I picked the ones I could sit through without gagging, so

I liked Amok Time; it did a lot to help flesh Vulcan ideas and beliefs.
