I always like The Inner Light, incidentally I just read this on wiki about the flute from that episode fetching a price of $40k plus at Christie's
The final bid for the flute at the auction was $40,000. Including the additional 20% fee Christie's collected on all items from the winning bidder, the total price for the flute was $48,000.
or the one where Picard vacations on Riesa and lets his hair down so to speak (Captain's Holiday) and there is one that I can't remember the details of but there was a female ambassador or judge come on board to mediate something or other and Picard must defend basic rights and it's awesome! (very memorable as you can tell.) :?

And which 1960's sci-fi was better, in terms of storyline and background then? (Dr Who, is and always was, for kids.)

Not really into sci-fi programms, although I love sci-fi novels, I've always found them tacky.

Right, so your personal opinion on the genre leads you to conclude that one particular series within said genre is shit and could you give a bit more detail on it's shitness.
(hehe, you wanted a rebuttal. Personally, I'm not THAT into ST. Just messing about.)

I have watched Star Trek. To me its like Home and Away only set in space. The moral dilemmas are so contrived. Also, as stated above, tacky.
