George: What were you saying to the Rosses over there, anyway?
Jerry: Oh, I don't know. I told them her death takes place in the shadow of new life. She's not really dead if we find a way to remember her.
George: What is that?
Jerry: Star Trek II.
George: (identifying it) Wrath of Khan!
Jerry: Right. Kramer and I saw it last night. Spock dies, they wrap him up in a towel, and they shoot him out the bowel of the ship in that big sunglasses case.
George: That was a hell of a thing when Spock died...
Jerry: Yeah...
[For a brief moment, the two become overwhelmed with emotion.]

Stan: Right as Jesus was dying he raised his hand and said, "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."
Randy: You're right, Stanley. You're absolutely right. Hey, that Bible sounds like kind of a good book.
Stan: It ain't bad. You should try reading it some time.
Kyle: Dude, that was "Star Trek" again! "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" — that was Wrath of Khan!

kirk has like three mega-monologues, including one where he goes "RISK ... IS ... OUR ... BUSINESS!!!" which i plan to use at a conference talk someday

**The huge hand keeping the Enterprise from moving in the beginning of this episode is, in fact, Gene Roddenberry's.

In Peter David's Star Trek: New Frontier, character Mark McHenry is a descendant of the child of Apollo and Carolyn Palamas (revealed to have been impregnated during the events of this episode), and has at least some of the Apollo's powers.

i was thinking this morning about the episode where kirk fights the guy (trelane? i think that was it) who seems ridiculously menacing and all-powerful but in the end turns out to be a spoiled kid from some Q-like omnipotent race. the way kirk intimidates him in the last scene, before he's even learned the "secret" ("you've got a lot to learn about living...in fact, you've gotta lot to learn about EVERYTHING, haven't you?") is fucking awesome.
― J.D., Friday, 21 December 2007 02:21 (sixteen years ago) link
That'd be "The Squire of Gothos," featuring one William Campbell as Trelane, who also played a Klingon on "The Trouble With Tribbles."

"You will hang by the neck, Captain, until you are dead, dead, dead!"

Also had a great ending where he dissolves from sight as he is taken back by his alien parents while repeating "I would've won, I WOULD have," reminiscent of the same kind of ending to "Charlie X," with Charlie last words before fading being "I wanna stay...stay...stay."

My dad knew William Campbell as a youth in Newark, NJ. (He's also the star of Francis Coppola's first film.)

watching the original series in order here: http://www.cbs.com/classics/star_trek/video/video.php. have maybe seen 10% of these.
s01e01 - The Man Trap (hairy salt monster) Uhura flirting with Spock was good. Kirk excellent. Leonard Nimoy pretty handsome back then. Moral: remember what happened to the the buffalo. 6/10. Hottest girl: http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f325/caek/Picture2-1.png
― caek, Thursday, 27 March 2008 02:20 (sixteen years ago) link
s01e02 - Charlie X (weird kid with telekenetic powers)
Charlie's face when using powers is excellent. Kirk removes shirt for first time. Uhura's singing voice is hilarious (and hot). 6/10. Hottest girl: http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f325/caek/Picture3.png

og series was shit fuck a tribble
next gen was pretty much garbage. srsly deep space 7 sucked.
only good episode was next generation. i don't know the episode name, i was 14. this historian from the future travels backwards through time to watch picard do some serious shit. guy keeps laughing at them like no way imma ruin the moment, major history in the making,. it turns out he was some nj guido who stabbed a time travel machine creator in the 1990s and actually went forward in time to jack Data for resale.
good twist.
