Star Trek TOS: season three.

This may be sacrilege, but watching season three, I can see why it went off the air. Who killed all the good writers from season one and two?

Season three was when it passed from Roddenberry's hands, as producer, to some other dude's. And then the ball started to roll downhill.

*pauses a minute to recall if there are any good s3 episodes*

Well, I like "The Empath" a lot. And "Spock's Brain", for MST3K values of "like". *g*

It was intentional by the network. They wanted the show dead, which meant killing off the fanbase. There are SOME gems in the 3rd season, but yeah, it went downhill hard.
