[Poll] Pick the next recap episode!

So. My three-season DVD set of TOS arrived today. (I'm sorry, [livejournal.com profile] amireal; I COULD NOT WAIT. It was like a horrible sickness compelled me to spend a small fortune on ancient, overpriced, but remarkably awesome television. I don't know what came over me.) Obviously, the question is: what should I watch next? I could just do a poll with all the episodes in order, except a) 80 episodes, OMG and b) I'm really afraid you'd all pick Spock's Brain just to see me suffer. I know you, okay? You have a sick sense of humor.

So I went through the original suggestion post and I think I pulled out all the ones that got recommended there (if I missed anything that should be here for reasons of awesome, let me know), and I'm letting you guys guide me. (Although I cannot promise that the one with the most votes will be the first one posted or anything. The ways of Trek love are peculiar, unpredictable, and kind of unnatural, I'm finding.)

This, obviously, is for the dozen of you who have actually seen these episodes and who care which ones get recapped at ridiculous length next.


[Poll #1510412]

Oh, man, thanks for the warning. I'm struggling enough with the skeevy gender issues in here (I know it was made in the '60s, but I'm not WATCHING it in the '60s, and somehow I cannot forget that) without coming on surprise rape. At least now I will be BRACED.

PS your prejudice against "Spock's Brain" is SILLY and UNFOUNDED.

PERHAPS YOU WOULD LIKE TO COME WATCH IT WITH ME? No. I thought not.

oh, you do not know the forces with which you trifle. I have watched Spock's Brain willingly and joyfully before, and I CAN DO SO AGAIN.
