Favourite Star Trek Episodes
As most would know by now am a massive Star Trek fan and been told I look a lot like Geordi La Forge from Next Gen lol.
Anyway thought I would create this thread but most of my fav eps will be from the newer shows as that's what I grew up with but I do have the original series except Season 3 waiting on a price drop so in time will include them.
Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2 Ep 23 "Regeneration"
This was a kinda of sequel to the Star Trek: First Contact, a research team in Arctic find remains of several bodies and equipment. They bring the bodies to there base and they regenerate and end up assimilating the crew in borgs.
The Enterprise is later called upon to investigate the disappearance of team, you find out it's the remains of the Borg from Star Trek: First Contact and you hear tie ins to do with the movie. Long story short they destroy the Borg ship but not before they send a message to the Delta Quadrant with coordinates of Earth but the message won't arrive till the 24th Century kinda of setting up the Borg in season 2 & 3 of the next generation all tho Q played a little part in it but it was a great touch.
Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 2 Ep 9 "The Measure of A Man"
This was a powerful ep full of great performances from Patrick Stewart, Brent Spiner, Jonathan Frakes & Whoopi Goldberg where the highlight performances of the Ep.
Commander Maddox has been working on androids but isn't quite there so he wants take Data apart to help his research & keeps calling him it. Data refuses and Maddox isn't having it so gets a star fleet order forcing him to do it, Data resigns but is seen as star fleet property rather then a living life form so it's up to Picard to argue the case in court, Riker is forced to against his friend Data. Maddox just wants a army of Datas, slavery is bought into it and whole story is very powerful and moving story and there's a extended version of this Ep which am looking forward to watching.
But a highly recommended Ep of the Next Gen and up there as one of best Star Trek stories.

RE: Favourite Star Trek Episodes
^ another great thread mate and some excellent choices there.
My favourite would be S1 Ep22 "Space Seed"
Most fans will know the plot so I won't go on about it too much but basically the episode introduced us to Khan Noonien Singh,one of the all time great villains in the history of television and then film.The strength of the writing still holds up today and Ricardo Montalban is brilliant as Khan.Also the acting from Leonard Nemoy and William Shatner is very strong,especially Shatner who seemed to raise his game in the scenes with Montalban.

RE: Favourite Star Trek Episodes
Star Trek(TAS) S1 Ep8
"The Magicks Of Megas-Tu"
Star Trek V basically copied this plot in that the crew of the Enterprise possibly find the origins of life,only this is written much more intelligently.
