First pilot [ ], season 1 [ ], summary [ ].

The Starfleet vessel USS Enterprise sets out on a five-year mission to explore new worlds and seek out new lifeforms in the Alpha Quadrant of the Galaxy . Under the command of Human Captain James T. Kirk and the Vulcan Spock , the Enterprise comes across many strange lifeforms in the first year of its mission – including shapeshifters , androids , and even more bizarre creatures . Elsewhere, there are run-ins with several prominent species, including the warrior race of the Klingons , the Romulan Star Empire , and the Gorn .

The rest of the crew develop close bonds on the long journey, and even as each one experiences the joys of the brave new world of space, they all experience grief and sacrifices. Amongst those who grow close as part of the senior staff are one of the ship's nurses, Christine Chapel , the ship's doctor Leonard McCoy , Kirk's yeoman Janice Rand , helmsman Hikaru Sulu and communications officer Uhura .

Background information [ ]

• Production for the initial season of Star Trek cost an average of US$190,635 per episode. (Some episodes went largely over budget, such as " The City on the Edge of Forever ", which cost $250,396, the most expensive of all episodes except the two pilots). But this figure would gradually decrease in the two seasons to come. ( Inside Star Trek: The Real Story )
• Each episode was scheduled to be filmed in six days; however, many of them went over schedule, resulting in one or two extra days of shooting. When Paramount Pictures took over Desilu in mid-season 2, schedules became much more strict, and episodes had to be completed in six days (closer to five and half days actually).
• The first season of TOS was nominated for two Emmy Awards in 1967 as "Outstanding Dramatic Series" and "Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Drama – Leonard Nimoy ".
• The episodes " The Menagerie, Part I ", " The Menagerie, Part II ", and " The City on the Edge of Forever " won Hugo Awards as "Best Dramatic Presentation". " The Corbomite Maneuver " and " The Naked Time " were also nominated.

1. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: Where No Man Has Gone Before (1966)

TV-PG | 50 min | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi

The flight recorder of the 200-year-old U.S.S. Valiant relays a tale of terror--a magnetic storm at the edge of the galaxy.

Director: James Goldstone | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Gary Lockwood , Sally Kellerman

Votes: 6,395

The second pilot, so looks a little different than the rest of the series, but a great episode. No Dr. McCoy.

2. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: The Enemy Within (1966)

A transporter malfunction splits Captain Kirk into two halves: one meek and indecisive, the other violent and ill tempered. The remaining crew members stranded on the planet cannot be beamed up to the ship until a problem is fixed.

Director: Leo Penn | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , DeForest Kelley , Grace Lee Whitney

Votes: 4,897

Good Kirk vs. Evil Kirk, but much better than that sounds, and offering some real psychological truth thanks to writer Richard Matheson, and the cast. Note that Kirk commits a horrible crime in this one.

3. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: Mudd's Women (1966)

The Enterprise picks up untrustworthy entrepreneur Harry Mudd accompanied by three beautiful women who immediately put a spell on all the male crew members.

Director: Harvey Hart | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Roger C. Carmel , Karen Steele

Votes: 4,779

Harry Mudd, one of the classic Trek antagonists, in an unusual and imaginative episode that mixes humor, suspense, sex appeal, and speculation. Gorgeous photography, as in all S1 shows.

4. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: The Corbomite Maneuver (1966)

After the Enterprise is forced to destroy a dangerous marker buoy, a gigantic alien ship arrives to capture and condemn the crew as trespassers.

Director: Joseph Sargent | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Anthony D. Call , Clint Howard

Votes: 4,863

A very early episode, a cinematic and exciting space adventure with an anti-war message.

5. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: The Menagerie: Part I (1966)

Spock kidnaps the disabled Capt. Pike, hijacks the Enterprise, and then surrenders for court martial.

Directors: Marc Daniels , Robert Butler | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Jeffrey Hunter , Susan Oliver

Votes: 4,838

This two-parter recycles the first pilot (known as "The Cage"), otherwise unusable because it had a different Captain.

6. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: The Menagerie: Part II (1966)

At Spock's court martial, he explains himself with mysterious footage about when Capt. Pike was kidnapped by powerful illusion casting aliens.

Directors: Robert Butler , Marc Daniels | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Jeffrey Hunter , Susan Oliver

Votes: 4,637

The conclusion of a movie-quality epic in which Spock mutinies -- but why? This story has been compared to "Forbidden Planet," but Star Trek's version may be even better.

7. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: Balance of Terror (1966)

The Enterprise must decide on its response when a Romulan ship makes a destructively hostile armed probe of Federation territory.

Director: Vincent McEveety | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Mark Lenard , Paul Comi

Votes: 5,676

Another anti-war episode, and the introduction of the Romulans. One of the most naval episodes, similar to a submarine movie.

8. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: Shore Leave (1966)

The past months have left the crew exhausted and in desperate need of a break, but does this explain McCoy's encounter with a human-sized white rabbit or Kirk crossing paths with the prankster who plagued his days at Starfleet Academy?

Director: Robert Sparr | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Emily Banks , Oliver McGowan

Votes: 4,415

Whimsical, but suspenseful too. Written by Theodore Sturgeon.

9. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: Arena (1967)

For bringing hostility into their solar system, a superior alien race brings Captain Kirk into mortal combat against the reptilian captain of an alien ship he was pursuing.

Director: Joseph Pevney | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , DeForest Kelley , George Takei

Votes: 4,493

The one with the lizard-man, called the Gorn. Kirk vs. the Gorn on a deserted planet.

10. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: Space Seed (1967)

While on patrol in deep space, Captain Kirk and his crew find and revive a genetically-engineered world conqueror and his compatriots from Earth's Twentieth Century.

Director: Marc Daniels | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Ricardo Montalban , Madlyn Rhue

Votes: 5,386

Introduces Khan, the genetically-engineered dictator who'll return as the villain in 1982's "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan."

11. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: This Side of Paradise (1967)

The Enterprise investigates a planet whose colonists should be dead, but are not.

Director: Ralph Senensky | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Jill Ireland , Frank Overton

Votes: 4,041

A heartbreaking love story, another Eden-that-wasn't-meant-to-be.

12. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: The Devil in the Dark (1967)

The Enterprise is sent to a mining colony that is being terrorized by a mysterious monster, only to find that the situation is not that simple.

Director: Joseph Pevney | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , DeForest Kelley , Ken Lynch

Votes: 4,273

Only Spock can communicate with a "monster" that's preying on miners. One of the great "message" episodes.

13. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: The City on the Edge of Forever (1967)

When a temporarily insane Dr. McCoy accidentally changes history and destroys his time, Kirk and Spock follow him to prevent the disaster, but the price to do so is high.

Director: Joseph Pevney | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , Joan Collins , DeForest Kelley

Votes: 6,536

Often cited as the best episode of TOS, has Kirk and Spock go back in time to fix the timeline. From a script by Harlan Ellison.

14. Star Trek (1966–1969) Episode: Amok Time (1967)

In the throes of his Pon Farr mating period, Spock must return to Vulcan to meet his intended future wife, betrothed from childhood.

Director: Joseph Pevney | Stars: William Shatner , Leonard Nimoy , DeForest Kelley , Celia Lovsky

Votes: 4,709

Uhura’s Abandoned Star Trek: Voyager Cameo Explained By George Takei

• Nichelle Nichols refused to cameo as Uhura in Star Trek: Voyager due to role size concerns, despite urging from George Takei.
• Although disappointing, Nichols' refusal is justified given her status as a Star Trek icon.
• Despite missing Uhura, Voyager successfully incorporated classic TOS characters like Sulu and Janice Rand in the season 3 episode "Flashback."

Nyota Uhura (Nichelle Nichols) almost appeared in Star Trek: Voyager , but fellow Star Trek: The Original Series actor George Takei explained why Uhura's cameo was abandoned. Nichols' portrayal of Lt. Uhura on TOS was a landmark representation of Black women on television at a time when Black female characters had very few positive portrayals , especially in science fiction. Although Uhura has gone on to be depicted by other actors in the franchise, Nichols never returned to play her in other projects after her tenure in TOS and the TOS portion of Star Trek 's movie series .

One chance Nichols did have to portray Uhura later on was in Star Trek: Voyager 's season 3 episode "Flashback," a tribute to TOS for Star Trek 's 30th anniversary. "Flashback" featured Lt. Commander Tuvok (Tim Russ) and Captain Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) experiencing Tuvok's time serving on the USS Excelsior under Captain Hikaru Sulu (George Takei) after Tuvok mind-melded with Janeway in an attempt to heal a repressed memory. The Excelsior scenes took place during the events of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country , with Takei reprising Sulu as a special guest star.

How To Watch All Star Trek TV Shows In Timeline Order

George takei explains nichelle nichols’ refusal to play uhura on star trek: voyager, nichols wouldn't do voyager despite takei's urging.

In an interview with The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine , issue 9, around the time of "Flashback's" release, George Takei revealed that he had begged Nichelle Nichols to accept a cameo on Voyager, to no avail. Voyager 's creative team was set on having Nichols appear as Uhura in Tuvok's memories during the episode, but Nichols had objections to the size of the role that ultimately led to her turning it down . Takei clearly wanted to work with Nichols again, but his persuasion wasn't enough to convince her to join "Flashback's" cast. Read Takei's full quote below:

"She would have communicated with me, as Uhura to Tuvok, over the viewscreen. I pleaded with her on the phone to do it because it would have been wonderful to have her back as well. She felt the part did not do her justice, so she passed on doing it."

Despite the disappointment of not seeing Uhura during Voyager 's run, Nichols' refusal of the part shows how much she cared about the character. As the originator of such a legendary role as Uhura, Nichols certainly had the right to choose when and how she returned to Star Trek . Additionally, Takei's role as Sulu in "Flashback" was much more expansive than Nichols' would have been, which hardly seems fair given how important both of them are to Star Trek history . Ultimately, Nichols turning Voyager down shows the strength of character she was known for as a performer and a person.

Voyager’s “Flashback” Still Brought Back Another Important Star Trek: TOS Character

"flashback" still managed to get another tos cast member as a guest star.

Although Uhura didn't appear in "Flashback," Voyager still managed to snag another iconic TOS actor for the episode: Grace Lee Whitney as Janice Rand. Whitney played Captain Kirk's Yeoman during the first season of TOS. Although Janice Rand was tragically fired after TOS season 1 , the character has become just as important as other classic Star Trek characters thanks in part to Whitney's popularity with the fanbase. This resulted in Rand being brought back for several cameos throughout the TOS film series and again, much later, "Flashback."

Rand was in Star Trek VI during the events that "Flashback" covered, so bringing Whitney back to reprise her role only made sense. However, "Flashback" offered the pleasure of seeing Rand in her role as Commander onboard the Excelsior, and her interactions with Tuvok were highly enjoyable. Given the controversy around Whitney's firing from TOS , giving her the chance to portray more of Rand's Starfleet career was certainly deserved . Although Rand and Uhura could have easily been in Star Trek: Voyager together, having at least one other TOS character besides Sulu was still an achievement.
