Amok Time

People laugh at the acting in Star Trek TOS, even I have been guilty of this. It's not that it sucks, it's that it's so over acted and the sets are just so bad. And also Shatner thinks he's doing Hamlet half the time. But i'll tell ya, I was watching the episode "Amok Time" (aka Horny Spock) and man, the acting is amazing. Not good, AMAZING! The lady that plays T'Pau was excellent, a quick look up on IMDB for Celia Lovsky and you find she was basically a guest actress, in a ton of shows. But she gets an A++, she was born in 1897....what an old bitch. Also Nimoy was fantastic as well. I have a new appreciation for the show. I've watched a few more epsiodes since and I noticed how good the acting actually was....especially from the guest spots, great casting by the creators. Also the dude that stole Spocks wife in Amok Time is so hideous.

I suggest you watch "Who Mourns For Adonis?" and count how many times Scotty gets blasted by lightning while trying to save some broad, what a man won't do for sweet tang.
