THE BEST EPISODE OF THE ORIGINAL SERIES,

Name: The City on the Edge of Forever

Year: 1967

Director: Joseph Pevney

Starring: William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelly and Joan Collins

    Why does everyone love this episode so much? Perhaps it´s beaucous of the touching love story, or maybe the fact that it was one of the first time-travel episodes in the series- making it special in many ways. 

The episode is about Dr. McCoy getting an over-dose of some healing-medecine of some kind. It makes him go crazy, and he beams himself down to a nearby planet. When following him, the other crew-members discovers a big portal, leading to different events in Earth´s history. A mysterious voice tells the crew he is "the guardian of Forever". The voice tells them that if they enter the portal, they will end up in the time it shows.    After we´ve been given this information, Crazy McCoy appears from behind a rock, and enters the portal. Somewhere back in time, McCoy changes the way of history, making Starfleet and the Enterprise never happen! To stop him from doing this in the past, Kirk and Spock travells back in time to the early 1930s- just a few days before McCoy arrived and messed everything up. While there, awaiting McCoys arrival, Kirk falls in love with Edith Keller- a woman who has to die in order to prevent Hitler from winning World War II...

   I recommend everyone to see this little pearl. It´s a great episode- truly the one with the best story. All the actors are at their best, and the message is beautiful. See it, it doesn´t matter if you´re a Trekker or not!
