ST: TOS Episode Rankings list

Recommended Posts

I found this on: http://www.79jewels.com/startrek/tos/Rankings.html and I thought it would be good thing to share. I found because I was stunned that STF.NET members hated TOS episode Savage Curtain saying at at the very bottom along with Spock's Brain. I always enjoyed it.

The Lights of Zetar should be down there at the bottom with Spock's Brain, The Lights of Zetar was the Klingon's way of getting even with Scotty for beaming tribbles into their engine room.

 

A Piece of the Action should be a top episode. It was hilarious and apparently was meant to be so. The bit of Scotty and Spock trying to understand the gangster lingo that Kirk fell into so easily and the jokes like "Captain you are an excellent starship commander, but as a taxi driver you leave much to be desired" after Kirk driving that car are great.

 

Mirror, Mirror should be a very top episode, the way it delves into the darker side of our personalities is a classic. Besides you have to give it points for Spock with that goatee (they should have used it in the "real" universe) The episode showed that we truly are a product of our environment by showing how the people that we are could be different if we grew up in a different environment with different rules.

As a guy I did rather like the female crew-member's alternate universe uniforms too :blush:

I didn't agree with many in this block.

 

2 or 3 out of 11 are dead on, the rest he/she is off from a little to a whole lot. Lists are always like that though, this at the top when it should be at the bottom and this is at the bottom when it should be at the top.
