This fall I'm planning to watch the Star Trek TOS movies with some friends on discord, as well as a few episodes of TOS/TAS to introduce the characters/setting/etc. So basically I'm searching for recommendations for episodes to watch

The episodes I'm already planning :

  • Space Seed (since we'll be watching Wrath of Khan)
  • The City on the Edge of Forever
  • Yesteryear

If you have more episodes recommendations, I'd love to hear about them ๐Ÿ˜

All great recommendations so far. I'd add

  • TOS: Shore Leave
  • TOS: The Trouble with Tribbles
  • TOS: Assignment: Earth (almost required context for PIC Season 2)
  • TOS: By Any Other Name
  • TOS: Cat's Paw
  • TAS: One of our Planets is Missing
  • TAS: The Infinite Joker
  • TAS: The Practical Joker
  • TAS: The Lorelei Signal

Also all episodes with Harry Mudd. :)
