TOS has the best tone/feel of all the Trek series’, but I’m not keen on the Technicolor sets/costumes, the episodic storytelling, or the steadfast focus on Kirk/Spock/McCoy. TNG & especially DS9 did better jobs utilizing and developing their characters.
The Kirk/Spock/McCoy dynamic is the show!
I love 'em, but it would’ve been nice if there’d been some Scotty/Sulu/Uhura/etc.-centric episodes in the mix.
And they’re far more complex than they’re given credit for! Especially Kirk.
Complex, yes, but they don’t evolve. Real character growth and change only took place once they transitioned to film.
It’s not a problem if the only way you watch Star Trek is a single episode every once in a while when it’s on TV.
Pfft. That is so 20th century.
