That may be the very first thing we have agreed on....

Yeah. I would definitely choose Star Wars, but I respect the topic.

hey, it was a joke! lol I pretty much can't compare the 6 Star Wars movies to the 700+ Star Trek episodes, it's a movie compared to a TV series. I like a lot Star Wars but they're not like the very best movie I've ever seen. But Star Trek is the best TV series I've even seen, so deep, creative, philosophical, metaphysical, visionary, it's just something else.

I've just finished watching The Original Series' Season One, some episodes have been a rewatch, I watched some long time ago... I kind of keep a list of some I think are worth for me for a future rewatch, I have even made kind of rank of my favourites. I've seen my list is not similar to the ones I've found on the internet who choose Balance Of Terror, Space Seed and The City of The Edge Of Forever as fav episodes from that season. SPOILER ALERT I'm commenting a little something bout some episodes 1 The Menagerie Part I and II (very trippy, the original pilot episode) 2 The Return of The Archons (about philosophical zombies) 3 The City On The Edge Of Forever (Back to the future II) 4 The Enemy Within (the kind of thing only Star Trek can do, not credible but it doesn't matter anyway, the Dark Side, Jung...) 5 The Galileo Seven (Spock and logic falling apart) 6 Errand Of Mercy (opression to prevent violence) 7 The Corbomite Maneuver (poker and then testing human race or so...) 8 The Squire of Gothos (Q long before Q) 9 Shore Leave (how it would be if humans could do that) 10 This Side Of Paradise (I still don't know why they did return...) 11 Court Martial ("Space Hitchcock" or so...) 12 Tomorrow Is Yesterday (Back to the Future before Back To the Future) 13 Where No Man Has Gone Before (super powers) 14 Charlie X (teenage desilousions mixed with super powers) 15 Space Seed (why did they set them free?) 16 Balance of Terror (about entering or not entering a war)

Which Star Trek episode was it that Spock started getting weird because he was bio-logically being drawn back to his home planet to mate?

Amok Time, I think, the one where Spock says "humans don't choose who they marry in a logical way"

Yes, that's it. I nicknamed that episode "Spock Gets the Hot Ya-Ya's" One of my favorite episodes!

blue jay hey:
the episode i love from the original series called Shore Leave used to be on youtube but not anymore
all the episodes of the Original Series are watchable in startrek.com http://www.startrek.com/videos/star-trek-the-original-series They're not avalaible here in Spain but I guess they are in the USA, if not they would post something warning it... this is the link for Shore Leave (though I can't use it) http://www.startrek.com/watch_episode/8t5gkbG1m2sQ Shore Leave is kind of revisited in TNG, I love when they say mankind is not ready for that, cause all the worries and fears would come true too... and as we have more negative than positive thoughts on average, and some Voyager episode is kind of about the same concept... If all you dreamed of came true, your nightmares and worries would come true too, quite trippy...
-
Does anybody know why people did stop watching Star Trek Enterprise? So they don't make Star Trek series anymore. I guess that after 700+ episodes it's hard to find new ideas for an episode. But now they also could use concepts relating new things that have happened in the world in the last ten years. The Internet, the crises (financial, ecological, etc.)...

They Finally Did It !!! Another scientific invention that was predicted on Star Trek! Give it a few decades development and it will be just like the show! The Tractor Beam... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-tayside-central-21187598 Edit... I guess this goes back to early 2011...the more I looked into it.

today I was having a laugh realizing that the screens we use today are the Star Trek's ones, flats and and wider than the old ones... Star Trek's everywhere In case you don't know teletransport (The "Beam Us Up" thing) is on the way too... They have only teletransported a particle... at first a nano distance. But the last time I read they made the particle "cross a river". Beamed up from one side to the river to the other. It's only an energy problem, give them nuclear fusion or so and you'll see, lol Update... Teletransport of 143 kilometres http://phys.org/news/2012-09-km-physicists-quantum-teleportation-distance.html It's not a joke, it's on Nature magazine.

Today I've watched 2 episodes, the first was nothing special but the second ("I, Mudd") was terrific. It shows the point of the limitations of logic even better than "Galileo's 7". And it's hilarious. And it had something about the problems of too much technology.... and I was thinking they could bring new topics talking bout that... they already did in 1967, I understimated them... Oliver out... no, wait a minute. Well, yesterday I kind of wrote a story for a Star Trek episode or so... An absolutely ilogical idea but I liked the experience. Oliver out.

does anybody knows if there is some episode about the "afterlife"? do they consider that death is the end of existence? (in Star Wars is not, for instance) There's no talk about that in all the episodes I've watched, maybe it is deliberately a topic they wished not to talk about, but I think it's strange that ST avoids any topic...
