Star Trek: Amok Time (S2) [1967]



This is an absolute first series classic and the premier of Season 2 in 1967.  It is the first real time that Vulcan's are seen displaying any type of emotions front and center (there is a moment in the original pilot that Spook does show emotion while playing chess...one can assume that the character of Vulcan's hadn't been fully "fleshed out" at the time). Not only is it famous for Spook "losing it" because of "fertility issue;" it is also famous for the fight scenes between Spook and Kirk...and the music composed for the scene.  For the remastered episode on Amazon Prime click here, for viewing online @ the Star Trek website (CBS feed), click here.
