just finished up, Day of the Dove and it was a pleasant surprise. What makes ToS good to watch all the way through, even the dumpy episodes, is the aesthetic. I know it's hard for us 80s/90s+++ crowd to fathom but there was nothing on tv back then except westerns and shitty variety shows, as far as the eyes could see and as much as they could bleed. ToS was their Toy Story/Star Wars. This was a time when playing super heroes and space men was considered beneath an actor of calibur, to a degree...its because of Shatners and Adam Wests that their devotion to the role, sparked what we now have today...and there is more trek to chew on then there is flavors in most ice cream parlors.
