Incidentally two of your seventeen would make my top ten. Three of them would make my top fifteen.
Sounds like the beginning of an annoying logic puzzle....
Harken: You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war? Zoe: Fought with a lot of people in the war. Harken: And your husband? Zoe: Fight with him sometimes, too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How Big Is the New Enterprise Compared to the Old One?
I didn't even notice that this Enterprise was so much bigger than the TOS one.
Is comparing size spoilery? Also, is there a joke in there somewhere?
Also, I may compose a mini edu-rant about how few people are familiar with the WW-II Enterprise, despite its many exploits....

What I love about this Trek is that for every change, you can just say ALTERNATE UNIVERSE. NEENER. If I was Abrams I would be doing that EVERY DAY.
Which is probably why I don't work in movies.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I love the space hippie episode.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I think there are about 24 episodes so far that appear to be recommended, which is a little over a quarter. A fair chunk, more than I was expecting to watch, but it should be good fun.

but it should be good fun.
Especially if you like girls in form fitting, velour minidresses.

That blonde psychiatrist in "Where No Man Has Gone Before" was pretty!
I'm looking at various Best lists to see which episodes off that Top 35 I should look into. Most of them appear on all the lists or have also been recommended by others. IGN adds "The Enemy Within," which sounds like it's awesomely ridiculous with the good Kirk and evil Kirk business. Those episodes are always a hoot. And EW adds "This Side of Paradise," which sounds like it might be a good Spock episode. Are they good? Does anyone here second "The Ultimate Computer," "A Taste of Armageddon," "Errand of Mercy," or "The Immunity Syndrome"? Those are the only other episodes people I know haven't also recommended. Also, anyone second "Day of the Dove"? I'm trying to keep my watching manageable! Also, my computer makes funny noises when I watch on CBS.com, so I don't want to kill the poor thing. Watching television online legally makes me feel like a contributing member of society!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Dude, just pick an ep and start watching. If you hate it, stop. If you like it, keep going.

Enemy Within is another episode that's great for a trope. Also, evil Kirk wears eyeliner.
This Side of Paradise is a good Spock episode, definitely. And it basically involves sex pollen. Immunity Syndrome is another good Spock episode.
The Ultimate Computer is fine, but I wouldn't call it a must-see. Same with Day of the Dove, which features Klingons.

I like things to be cut-and-dry! That seems far too sensible a course of action. BUT MAYBE I WILL TRY IT.
Thanks for the input, Dana.
