TOS, the first episode where the cast meshed together?

MIRROR, MIRROR

IMO this is the TOS episode where the combined cast cut loose and were dependent on each others acting skills. Yep, Mirror, Mirror was an ensemble masterpiece!

 

Hard choice! Scotty is in Where No Man but not the first two televised episodes, The Man Trap and CharlieX! Chekov isn't in the first season at all (or isn't seen) and Yeoman Rand disappears from the ship midway during the first season!So really you have to decide which team as such you prefer, the earlier or the later cast?

I think MM is a good choice.

 

Aired or production? Because I feel like they gelled together pretty quickly.

 

Was there a mishap with the transporter again?

 

The Naked Time.

 

I thought The Naked Time as well but felt that might be considered too early!

Heck, in "The Corbomite Maneuver", I thought they were already pretty well meshed. It was a great cast that seemed to have chemistry right off the bat.
