    Also, Scotty kills a couple of ladies while he’s under its influence. I get that it wasn’t him who did it, but he’s lucky TOS was episodic or that would have given him some crazy PTSD.

      Starfleet Engineers and PTSD, name a more iconic duo.

      Yeah, I have it on my Star Trek Creeps playlist. Fun episode.

      TOS was kind of horror sci-fi a lot of the time. It was violent and scary quite often, and much more than almost any other Trek series.

        That is true, although it also preached peace over violence and, a lot of the time, violence was a last resort solution. Which was pretty amazing for the 1960s.
