...”Space...the final frontier..” Holy cow, nothing will ever beat that. I’m 52 and I think I must have literally watched every episode at least a few 100 times, I never get tired of it, it’s impossible.

I have a special connection to the original Star Trek. I saw every episode several times, and saw them all again after my daughter was born (Georgetown, Walsh School of Foreign Service, '94) When she was around 8, she saw her favorite episode, Devil in the Dark, when I realized that the series had universal appeal for all ages that were blessed with intelligence, imagination, a sense of humor and intrinsic humanity.

Hard combination to beat.

Devil in the dark, that’s Shatners favorite episode. Mine is “This side of paradise” The meaning of life is in that episode. Huge lesson of want and need, discipline and control. THAT one I must have watched a thousand times no joke. Seriously, I watch that episode at least once a week. Jill Ireland the wife of Charles Bronson is in the lead. To call that episode genius is like calling Einstein slightly smart. It blows my mind every time I see it.
