It’s honestly my favourite to revisit. I’ll put on TNG episodes that I love, but TOS is the one where I can throw on any episode and have a good time in one way or another. I love the balance of retro camp paired with that era’s version of the philosophical stuff the show is known for. And the colours on the bluray pop so much more. I love the later shows (tbf I’m still only on DS9), but I do find TOS to be the most visually pleasant to look at.
Agreed. TOS has so much greatness. Episodes do such an amazing job of setting up a mystery and then exploring why [mysterious thing] is. Like the setup of Lost but with an actual payoff for watching.
I also think it has the best pacing of any of the series except maybe DS9. Episodes have more time to breathe.
