Nobody likes the one where Spock grabs Scotty by the collar and says, through gritted teeth, "I Don't Like That", after Scotty calls him "pointy-eared???

Memory Alpha.

Was that Scotty or McCoy?

[–] Egosomnia (861) 22 days ago

Yeah, maybe McCoy. Scotty probably wouldn't have said that.

The first season had a lot of good ones so I'll be creative and do a Top 15 based top 5 all three seasons with an honorable mention for each season:

Season One

1. Space Seed
2. The Enemy Within
3. The Galileo Seven
4. The Man Trap
5. The Devil in the Dark

Honorable Mention: This Side of Paradise/Where No Man has gone before (The latter was a pilot episode but was placed in Season One. If you want strictly season one then I included This Side of Paradise with those deadly spores and the beautiful Jill Ireland.)

Season Two

1. Who Mourns for Adonais?
2. Mirror Mirror
3. The Doomsday Machine
4. Catspaw
5. By Any Other Name

Honorable Mention: A Private Little War with the poisonous white ape.

Season Three

1. Day of the Dove
2. The Tholian Web
3. Whom Gods Destroy
4. Let That Be Your Last Battlefield
5. The Savage Curtain

Honorable Mention tie: That Which Survives/The Lights of Zetar, I liked both episodes equally so I included them here.
