In one of the movies , Mr. Sulu mentioned he was born in San Francisco.

He was supposed to be representing Asian people, yet he was an American. Go figure.

Definitely “The City on the Edge of Forever (1967)” hands down.

The one where Khan becomes infatuated with the cute tribbles.

I have a fondness for Mirror Mirror.

I LOVE Star Trek, both the original and even TNG, despite their mild wokism (by today’s standards).

City on the Edge of Forever of course, but I always enjoyed Who Mourns for Adonis.

The Doomsday Machine.
William Windom gives an excellent performance.

Doomsday Machine has to be in top 5 if not top 3

I think Shore Leave was a nice whimsical episode.

I think "The Doomsday Machine" should have been rated higher. William Windom gave a performance for the ages.

“City on the Edge of Forever” for serious writing skills. If you get a chance, read the original script before Roddenberry toned it down. It’s an interesting read.

For funsy, “A Piece of the Action”. Family has Fizben Friday nights. lol

Trouble with Tribbles, City on the Edge of Forever, the ones where they go back in time to earth, Amok Time; The Corbomite Maneuver, and A Piece of the Action.

Not necessarily in that order.

Dang, I was hoping this covered more than the original series. The Deep Space Nine episode “In the Pale Moonlight” had to be one of the best episodes of Trek ever.

Episode ‘Patterns of Force’ where Kirk and Spock portrayed Notsees got the show banned in Germany.
Yeoman Rand’s wall of hair always intrigued me.

Any list of best Star Trek episodes that doesn't include "Mirror, Mirror" is highly suspect.

My personal favorite moment from the episode, Uhura's HILARIOUS fall toward the camera:
