Please be kind.
Do not post any spoilers for the new film.
I am new to Star Trek the Original Series, however I am familiar with The Next Gen. and Voyager. I really want to see the new film, but I want to familiarize myself with the Original Series as much as possible. Most of the episodes are resets (The series is essentially episodic: meaning during the course of an episode, few fundamental changes are made to the arc of the series). I have managed to work my way though the major episodes in season 1.
My question to all of you Star Trek fans out there is: which episodes should I watch to best familiarize myself with the Original Series? Include the valid films and please make your list in chronological order.
Here is a list of what I've seen thus far:
The Man Trap
Charlie X
Where No Man Has Gone Before
The Naked Time
Enemy Within
Balance of Terror
Tomorrow is Yesterday
Space Seed
Errand of Mercy
The City on the Edge of Forever
I plan to eventually go back to watch the full series. But I'll never make it through before the film leaves theaters. Help . . .
