Corwood, or anyone, have you watched the commentary on the Criterion DVD of The Seven Samurai? I'm thinking about buying it just to go to film school every few years.
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

"Mirror, Mirror" also started the tradition of Evil Twins wearing goatees -- important cultural reference there. Also, IIRC it's one of the first appearances of an Alternate Reality appearing on an SF show.

Thrive to spite them
Cat's Paw--- was that the one where some of the characters might have been spun off in their own show?

No, you're thinking of "Assignment Earth" with the trip back into the 20th century. It was intended as a backdoor pilot for a show about the Gary Seven character.
"Catspaw" was the Halloweenish/Haunted Castle episode with the extragalactic aliens who menaced the Enterprise with sympathetic magic.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
It was intended as a backdoor pilot for a show about the Gary Seven character.
With Teri Garr as his winsome sidekick.

And, of course, "I, Mudd." Harcort Fenton Mudd must have a place in your pop culture lexicon
Of course, "Mudd's Women" was the episode that introduced the character.
There wasn't exactly continuity, but there were recurring characters.
Riley comes to mind here, as well. And I haven't seen anybody mention "The Naked Time" yet. Which TNG did an homage to way, WAY too early in their run (i.e. before the characters were established well enough, though Data did get to sleep with Tasha Yar).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ooh, CW and TV Land show a couple episodes every week! Thank you, DVR. I will take Scola's advice and try not to explode if I skip an episode and wait to watch it on my television.

Seriously, it's changed my life.

Yeah, I can't believe I used to program my VCR. This is so much better.
Of course, "Mudd's Women" was the episode that introduced the character.
Which is airing next Sunday! So I'll wait for it.
And I haven't seen anybody mention "The Naked Time" yet. Which TNG did an homage to way, WAY too early in their run (i.e. before the characters were established well enough, though Data did get to sleep with Tasha Yar).
That's what I'm watching tonight. And it was the fourth episode aired of TOS! How much earlier can you get? Well, you can get earlier, but I think this is way too early for this sort of episode too (then again, Dollhouse did it pretty early as well).

Wow, really? I never followed the order of episodes all that much. I just know that while "Where no man has gone before" was blatantly the first episode (the original pilot aside), they debuted with "The Man-Trap" which was a lame-o monster of the week episode (though it gave Bones some good stuff to do). But, yeah, that's just about as early as the TNG episode. Huh.
And I also know that "Turnabout intruder" was the last one aired. I guess Shatner channelling his inner "woman" killed the show (in quotes because I always got the feeling he was actually imitating a flamboyant drag queen).
Granted, there are arguments to this day which order the Prisoner episodes should really be in, which also was mostly (aside from first and last two episodes) a continuity free show, recurring actors be damned (Leo McKern excepted).
