Best Star Trek?
The Original Series is the best one imo. You got the classic Kirk, McCoy, Spock trio. Uhura's super hot, the production design just oozes that cool Raygun Gothic vibe because its from that pre-swedish minimalism era where the future still looked visually enriching. Also that episode with Apollo is pretty sad even though he was kind of a dick.
Your thoughts?
This checks out—in fact I believe Roddenberry had an explicit policy against interpersonal conflict among crew members, which handicapped the writers of TNG in some ways. He probably would have hated DS9.
That was apparently kind of an open question, since DS9 goes against a lot of what Roddenberry wanted—an idealistic future, for example. But supposedly he gave the show his blessing just before he died.
