The Joy of TrekEvery Star Trek story is somebody's favorite, and that might as well be us! Author: Kay, Khaki and Greg
Two lifelong besties (and their trusty engineer) adventure through the vast constellations of Star Trek's decades on TV, especially the lesser-loved stories. But instead of bitching about why theyre bad, were going to find the joy in each of them, because everybody loves the great episodes, but it takes dedication, insight, and hard-working fools to love the clunkers too. And by Jove, we are those fools! Positive, inclusive and optimistic (though not uncritical!) we try to find the brilliance even in the least-loved episodes of our favorite TV shows!

The Naked Time (TOS S1 E06)
Tuesday, 3 December, 2024
The Naked Time (Star Trek: The Original Series (TOS), S1 E6) was recommended by Kaleb, he/him, who said: While it definitely isn't an unloved episode, after you did the TNG version it only seemed right to recommend it. It's also the episode that made me fall in love with both Star Trek more broadly and Spock in particular; I even find Riley’s incessant singing to be deeply charming. Everyone's acting is great, from comedic to serious to tragic.It's such a smart way to introduce these characters within the first few episodes, by exposing the conflicts and fantasies beneath the surface. Even if it means showing a severe lack of safety protocol to get there!The Naked Time first aired on September 29, 1966, written by John D. F. Black, and directed by Marc DanielsA strange, intoxicating infection, which lowers the crew's emotional inhibitions, spreads throughout the Enterprise. As the madness spreads, the entire ship is endangered.[2]The Joy of Trek is hosted by Khaki & Kay, with editing & production by Chief Engineer Greg and music by Fox Amoore (Bandcamp | Bluesky)Send us your recommendations, or support us on Patreon.Find us at joyoftrek.com · Twitter · Facebook
