What, is that like the lady to the little kid in the pirate costume "But where are your buccaneers?"

"On the side of my buckin' head, lady!"



Of the top of my head, "Doomsday Machine" and "Journey to Babel" for wonderful tight scripting (the latter is my class example of "keep adding trouble right up to the last reel") "City of the Edge of Forever" for the powerful sense of loneliness and loss captured in that first camera pan up into the night sky and never quite lost thereafter.

"Spock's Brain" for being THAT bad (and for giving us the classic "Brain and brain! What is brain?"

Mudd, of course. Mark Leonard, no matter what he's doing. Garth (and Decker, too, and Kirk far too many times) for being....intensely...insane!

And someting funny. Maybe it was all the Shakespeare quotes. But TOS is the only TV series I can actually remember the episode titles on.
