Last night we watched “Return of the Archons,” and that means tonight is “Space Seed” in the periodic re-view of TOS. That means it’s also time to rewatch The Wrath of Khan. That means it’s probably best to do ST:III and ST:IV to wrap up the Spock saga.

Left in S1, of note:

• This Side of Paradise
• Errand of Mercy
• City on the Edge of Forever

I think I’m actually an S2 kinda guy. S1 has its charms, but there are a few real stretches of horse latitudes in there.

My S1 nostalgia is for:

• Arena, which is the first thing I ever remember seeing on tv.
• Where No Man Has Gone Before, for the freaky eyeballs
• The Enemy Within, for the good/evil horned poodles
• The Menagerie, coz it’s cool but also just a clever way to reuse a failed pilot.
• What Are Little Girls Made Of (freaked me out as a child when Lurch did other peoples’ voices)
• The Galileo 7. As a kid I completely identified with Spock. As an adult, I think most of my leadership mistakes are pretty much me acting like Spock in The Galileo 7.
• Tomorrow Is Yesterday, because it’s so hammy
