Two for Devil in the Dark. Yeah, that was a cool one for sure. The one that scared me as a kid was The Man Trap. I remember as a kid I jumped up to turn off the TV when the salt vampire appeared. It was some time before that episode came around again and I finally saw how it ended.
Coincidentally, Doomsday Machine was on Heroes & Icons last night (cornucopia of death). I only watched the first part of it. That episode benefited tremendously from the new CGI spaceship effects.
Last Battlefield was such a translucent metaphor, but still so awesome because of the Riddler.
Tribbles are a given - there's this BTS story that DeForest Kelley was an expert at covertly inserting objects in female castmate's cleavage, and that in the middle of a scene, Nichelle Nichols burst out laughing and pulled a tribble that Kelley had left for her. You can see a tribble in her cleavage in the episode. Lucky tribble.
Space Seed didn't work for me until Wrath of Khan. I didn't get the Sikh reference until recently, which was tremendous foresight of the original series, and totally blown in Into Darkness. That Kelvin timeline - such a bitch if it wasn't for Simon Pegg.
I gotta give an honorable mention to The Naked Time because of the Sulu fencing scene. That scene had a profound effect on my life, come to think of it.
