after watching these clips together you can see how human spock really is. he delivers his lines with a straight face but you can tell he's smirking inside.
Especially when you consider how comparatively *boring* Star Trek tended to make *full* Vulcans-- see Tuvok from Star Trek: Voyager for an example (though to be fair, while Tuvok was the less interesting *character*, he WAS, technically, the better *Vulcan* of the two).
considering in all the episodes there were only 3 dark-skinned Vulcans(1 was played by Indian Veejay Armitraj) they must have lived on a small isolated section of Vulcan(since I've never seen any mulato toned ones)
If memory serves, Vulcan is a hot arid planet. There might be an even higher level of ultraviolet light than Earth, so one might expect the majority of Vulcans to be dark skinned. McCoy has remarked that Spock has green blood which would be an undertone for his skin. If he has red blood from his mother, the red and green might make him even browner. It's okay if he has red blood as long as he doesn't wear a red shirt. 😉
They seem to take great pleasure with their "logical" sarcasm. Ambassador V'Lar and Sub-commander T'pol in "Enterprise" became masters of sarcasm. Likely not intentional at first, but once they observed human reaction, they started making snarky oneliners for personal amusement.
There's a reason why this show is still around after 50 years when so many others are dust. Well-written, well-acted and lovable. As fresh now as it was 50 years ago.
VERY, VERY TRUE! AND MUCH, MUCH BETTER THAN THAT NEXT GENERATION STUFF. THE ONLY BEST STAR TREK OUT THERE IS THE ORIGINAL STAR TREK, THE ORIGINAL STAR TREK SERIES RULES!
And how Spock said, not precise Doctor. On Vulcan, the teddy bears are alive, snd have six inch fangs. The chuckle from the Captain adds icing to the cake. The way those two always threw a dig into each other was always halarious!
it's funny cause I first saw Spock on film played by Zachary Quinto, and he was so stiff and emotionless (like I expected) but when I started watching the original series, I was completely surprised at how emotive and sassy he really was, played by Nimoy. It's interesting
part of that is that in the movies.. he was much stiffer than in the original series of co urse that is explain in the first film as he reach a level of pure logic few vulcan can achieve. He did very well for a half vulcan i am told. One of hte few thing about star trech the motionsickness
I heard a rumor about the scene starting at about 08:05. When Sarek said (when asked why he married his wife) that it was the logical thing to do, someone on the crew said, "Isn't that Vulcan for, 'Her Daddy showed up with the shotgun?'"
JohnAudioTech yes, the three-way banter is something that was missing from every other Star Trek series. Figures like quark and neelix were just comic relief.
Simon Pegg got it included in *Beyond.* Data had a bit of it in the first two seasons of TNG as well, but thankfully, Bermann got rid of most of it after Roddenberry died.
5:47 -- From "The Trouble with Tribbles" ... Chekov: I was making a little joke, sir. Spock: Extremely little, Ensign. Classic! Pwned before (or 'after' - wink) there was pwning! Haha.
There has never, ever been a better example of "chemistry" between the principle cast members of any movie or TV show than in the original Star Trek series. What made Kirk, Spock, and McCoy work so well together wasn't the script or the acting, it was how they responded to each other.
One of my favorite Chekov moments is when the gang meets Apollo. When Apollo introduces himself, Chekov says, without skipping a beat, “And I’m the czar of all the Russias.”
"There was no deity involved. It was my cross-circuiting to B that recovered them!" "Well, then, thank pitchforks and pointed ears!" I gotta remember THAT one...
Me too. I watch the episodes over and over, but it would be nice to have more seasons. I guess we should be grateful that the viewers fought for a third season.
The good thing is that those three season's gave us 79 episodes. This day and age you can have a cable show on for Five Seasons and get only 50 episodes since many times a single season is only 10 episodes.
@@witnesstothestupid Yeah but it was a 5 yea mission so it was meant to be 5 seasons, each about a year and at the end Enterprise comes home. So they cancelled the last part of the voyage unfortunately.
1:04-1:11 That scene always scared me when I was a kid. And you could tell that even Kirk was un-nerved, which made it even scarier for me. But Spock's droll "very bad poetry" comment made me laugh out loud - and was such a relief. Even all these years later.
Someone once observed, "Factions are fights. They are found in otherwise friendly groups." So it was here. For all the bickering, Spock and Bones loved each other like brothers. There's a word in Vulcan---"t'hy'la" which carries, among other things, that connotation: really close family. And these two, with Captain Kirk, were just that. ---brothers.
When Kirk says "Spock you're alive !" it made me sad to think that Leonard Nimoy never got to see the 50th anniversary of the release of the Original Star Trek. Difficult to believe he's been gone over a year now.
Peace and long life Live long and prosper.... T-T RIP Mr. Spock It is amazing how thru a character who rarely displayed emotion that he was able to bring out the deepest emotion in all of us. And tho we All mourn his passing I believe we all know that Mr. Spock would tell us that to mourn him is illogical, for death is the only logical outcome to the end of a long life such as his. Farewell Mr. Spock, you shall be missed. RIP Leonard Nimoy
Great job. You got the best ones for sure. So many of my favorites. Nimoy and Kelley were so expert at delivering their mutual insults. Thanks for putting this together.
Chekov: "Nosy enough to smell them." Spock: "That's illogical ensign. Odors can not travel through the vacuum of space." Chekov: "I was making a little joke sir." Spock: "Extremely little ensign." The look on Chekov's face was priceless XD
So many back then. They had meaning and always taught a valuable life lesson.. Heck, even the Carrot Man form Lost in Space episode taught compassion..

The beauty of the Spock character is that he surprises you with his "human" statements, like sarcasm and bickering and one-liner zingers. Since the character is supposed to have/show no emotion, when he does show emotion, which he does all the time, then you are surprised and delighted. It's a case of lowering your expectations and then you're easier to surprise and delight. Also when something happens like he kills Kirk and then finds him alive and is smiling, the emotion is that much more profound, such that the incident is the talk of all of us for decades to come.
I feel the same way now with Leonard's passing as I did when the original series got cancelled...just a devastating, gaping hole. The best to you in your new life, we have all profited immensely with your talent.
Including "Piece Of The Action" was a good call, but Spocko's best moment was pointing the gun at Bela Oxmyx, and saying "I'd advises ya to keep dialin', Oxmyx"
Thanks for these STAR TREK moments. The original series boasted one of the great ensemble casts in the history of the medium. The following sequel series and movies did pretty well, too.
His deadpan response to a old fashioned human phrase or slang is priceless. The way his literal brain interprets literally cracks me up. He always seem to have the blessing of writers who made sure it was clever and not smart ass sarcasm. He does like twenty facial nuances so perfectly so quickly.
The Star Trek series's following ST TOS had better FX but that cant compare to the characters and character interaction of the original Star Trek. Nimoy was brilliant. And people may pick on Shatners over the top acting for Kirk, but could you really picture Kirk any other way? NO... didnt think so. There was no overacting to it, that was Kirk and as I sit down and watch TOS from first to last ep all over again after a long long time, this time Im really appreciating Captain Kirk and Shatners delivery of him. Yes even right down to cadence of his lines LOL. I grew up on TOS and never even noticed it till I saw all the jabs (some more lighthearted then others) all over the media through the years about it. But Spock was my hero though growing up. He rocks!
Star Scream... I felt the same. Spock was my fave of all. Also, when I was growing up watching ST, I never noticed that Kirk was over the top until years later when people were pointing it out. Shatner was the best Kirk, and Nimoy was the best Spock. I know that time is over and I appreciate the newbies but I do miss the orginals.
Agree with all that you have wrote as the Original Star Trek Series is above all tge very best Star Trek Series out there. Never cared for nor liked that next generation stuff, it was to silly and childish and nothing but space boy, space toy stuff.
Star Scream- Come on... Over the top doesn't even begin to describe his: "I'm losing command," mantra in the lift with Spock. (From the third season episode, "And The Children Shall Lead.") Stick a fork in Shatner for that one. Talk about overdone hams!!!
Isaac Asimov wrote a piece about how surprised he was when his daughter said that Spock was "dreamy". He has been raised on how jocks are manly and nerds are wimpy and girls like manly men, and then suddenly the most nerdy scientist in all of fiction is a heart-throb? The idea that science is sexy, that intelligence and logic is attractive, was strange but comforting to him. People talk about how Kirk was such a womanizer, which is not even supported by the series. Actually it was Spock who was the serial heartbreaker. And it seems the fans understood why.
In fact, the child was named Leonard James Akaar...which led Spock to observe that Kirk and McCoy would be insufferably pleased with themselves for at least a month Another fine example of the humor in Star Trek.
@@zitacarno4443 the funniest part was that Spock seemed genuinely offended and didn't bother to hide it at all. A little out of character, but totally worth it.
@@atticstattic i have to disagree. Listen to the tone of his voice, and add to that his adding "Sir" to the end of his sentence. There was quite clearly some disgust there.
@@saiga5476 Disgust? - not at all, his surprise got the best of him and he not only showed emotion in from of his crew mates but was informal to his commanding officer...so he had to add the 'sir'.
@@strider04 It was when it was airing. At some point, Roddenberry had it removed from official canon. A lot of fans like me still consider it canon however.
Thank you SO much for compiling and uploading this! I'm a fan from way back when. Some of the science is so laughable, but they made some excellent points in the stories, too. LOVE the blooper moment at about 5:21 when Kirk and Spock are supposedly outdoors trying to make weapons or start a fire, whatever, and you can see their shadows on the painted landscape backdrop.
I never noticed that until now... wow. I knew they used a ton of backdrops, but I guess I was paying too much attention to Kirk and Spock's banter to notice. Gotta admit they're really funny in that scene :) By the way, they were trying to make bows and arrows in "Friday's Child". Just sayin' :)
It's not a blooper. They are hiding in front of a large boulder to protect them from the enemy they are making weapons to fight against. It's not a painted landscape behind them, it's a boulder. (supposed to be, it's actually styrofoam). Cheers.
after watching these clips together you can see how human spock really is. he delivers his lines with a straight face but you can tell he's smirking inside.

Roddenberry making Spock only half-Vulcan was a stroke of genius.
He's only human.
Especially when you consider how comparatively *boring* Star Trek tended to make *full* Vulcans-- see Tuvok from Star Trek: Voyager for an example (though to be fair, while Tuvok was the less interesting *character*, he WAS, technically, the better *Vulcan* of the two).
DorianMichaelsIII Tuvok was great
considering in all the episodes there were only 3 dark-skinned Vulcans(1 was played by Indian Veejay Armitraj) they must have lived on a small isolated section of Vulcan(since I've never seen any mulato toned ones)
If memory serves, Vulcan is a hot arid planet. There might be an even higher level of ultraviolet light than Earth, so one might expect the majority of Vulcans to be dark skinned. McCoy has remarked that Spock has green blood which would be an undertone for his skin. If he has red blood from his mother, the red and green might make him even browner.

I can say objectively that Leonard was the best actor in the series. He had the most subtle facial expressions.
spock and bones mocking each other is the best part of TOS
I always got the sense that they were each other's best friend, but they flatly refused to admit it~

Yes even right down to cadence of his lines LOL. I grew up on TOS and never even noticed it till I saw all the jabs (some more lighthearted then others) all over the media through the years about it. But Spock was my hero though growing up. He rocks!
Star Scream... I felt the same. Spock was my fave of all. Also, when I was growing up watching ST, I never noticed that Kirk was over the top until years later when people were pointing it out. Shatner was the best Kirk, and Nimoy was the best Spock. I know that time is over and I appreciate the newbies but I do miss the orginals.
There has been great characters and character interaction on the other series.
Agree with all that you have wrote as the Original Star Trek Series is above all tge very best Star Trek Series out there. Never cared for nor liked that next generation stuff, it was to silly and childish and nothing but space boy, space toy stuff.
Star Scream- Come on... Over the top doesn't even begin to describe his: "I'm losing command," mantra in the lift with Spock. (From the third season episode, "And The Children Shall Lead.") Stick a fork in Shatner for that one. Talk about overdone hams!!!
Isaac Asimov wrote a piece about how surprised he was when his daughter said that Spock was "dreamy". He has been raised on how jocks are manly and nerds are wimpy and girls like manly men, and then suddenly the most nerdy scientist in all of fiction is a heart-throb? The idea that science is sexy, that intelligence and logic is attractive, was strange but comforting to him.
People talk about how Kirk was such a womanizer, which is not even supported by the series. Actually it was Spock who was the serial heartbreaker. And it seems the fans understood why.
"The child was named Leonard?" XD
In fact, the child was named Leonard James Akaar...which led Spock to observe that Kirk and McCoy would be insufferably pleased with themselves for at least a month Another fine example of the humor in Star Trek.
@@zitacarno4443 the funniest part was that Spock seemed genuinely offended and didn't bother to hide it at all. A little out of character, but totally worth it.
@@saiga5476
Surprise - not offense...
@@atticstattic i have to disagree. Listen to the tone of his voice, and add to that his adding "Sir" to the end of his sentence. There was quite clearly some disgust there.
@@saiga5476
Disgust? - not at all, his surprise got the best of him and he not only showed emotion in from of his crew mates but was informal to his commanding officer...so he had to add the 'sir'.
This was a great TV show. And Spock was a big part of it. I remember watching it. Maybe in reruns or in it's run. Thanks Mr. Spock.
Ambassador Spock has joined Scotty and Bones on a new away mission to the great unknown.
Beamed up for the final time... great memories!
I will never get over "A teddy bear?" scene, it's too priceless😄😄😄
2:24 is still my favourite
"You see the shit I put up with?"
After the comment
"Well hell maybe this machine is on to something."
I like the line, "Why thank you Captain McCoy."
RIP Mr. Spock, you have gone where no man has gone before...
For an emotionless being, Spock has one hell of a sense of humor
It's called sass.
An emotionless sassy character.
Spock is hardly emotionless. Vulcans suppress their emotions and Spock is half-human, hence his inner conflict.
Good bye, Spock. I really wanted to meet you. Hope you and Bones can reconcile. I loved you, an I am crying even as I write this.
Res In Peace Leonard Nimoy I have and ever shall be ur friend and a huge fan Rest In Peace with bones Scotty gene and majel
Thnx for this clip. Brings back all the memories. They were all so good together. I loved them
4:57 always makes me laugh cause Kirk looks so like a kicked puppy 😂😂😂
Spock was so miffed that the baby in Friday's Child was not also named after him. 🤣
lol - Good video. Spock was always my favorite character on Star Trek.
Mine too!
Me three Spock is my favorite
Spock does not consider a wild goose chase as going after “some wild aquatic fowl”! Always loved that line when I was a kid back in the 70s!
"A TEDDY BEAR?"
"Not precisely. On Vulcan the teddy bears are alive and they have 6-inch fangs."
sure not a teddy i'd wanna snuggle with o_o
The animated series actually explored Spock's relationship with his pet. A lot of people want it to be canon because it explains so much.
As LadyEvilest mentioned, they did show the 'teddy bear' and he WAS adorable
@@LadyEvilest the animated series is cannon though I thought
@@nancyomalley6441 I-Chaya.
@@strider04 It was when it was airing. At some point, Roddenberry had it removed from official canon. A lot of fans like me still consider it canon however.
I gave never seen such a delighted face as when McCoy finds out about spocks teddy bear.Brilliant
...or the change of expression when Spock tells him about the true nature of the sehlat.
What an absolute joy, to see a straight man, deliver his witty repartee, in his dead pan way.
Gotta love him.
This is so funny lol. I love Spock's sass in these. Makes me want to get the original series & watch them again. I grew up on the reruns.
I freaking love him. He's so good at insulting people without being blamed or noticed, and I find that admirable
"not some wild aquatic fowl" Oh, that's some funny stuff!!
Thank you SO much for compiling and uploading this! I'm a fan from way back when. Some of the science is so laughable, but they made some excellent points in the stories, too. LOVE the blooper moment at about 5:21 when Kirk and Spock are supposedly outdoors trying to make weapons or start a fire, whatever, and you can see their shadows on the painted landscape backdrop.
I never noticed that until now... wow. I knew they used a ton of backdrops, but I guess I was paying too much attention to Kirk and Spock's banter to notice. Gotta admit they're really funny in that scene :)
By the way, they were trying to make bows and arrows in "Friday's Child". Just sayin' :)
It's not a blooper. They are hiding in front of a large boulder to protect them from the enemy they are making weapons to fight against. It's not a painted landscape behind them, it's a boulder. (supposed to be, it's actually styrofoam). Cheers.
Thank you. 🖖 Live long and prosper, with many more GREAT videos!
You just have to love Spock.
Checkov: I was making a little joke, sir.
Spock: Extremely little, ensign.
Thanks for posting this. RIP mr. Spock.
All my favorites are here! Including "very bad poetry captain" lol Thankyou so much!
"I think you're both going to be insufferably pleased with yourselves for at least a month."
I use this line whenever I get a chance.
"He probably was afraid of your *BEADS* and rattles" gets me everytime lol.
R.I.P. Sir thank you for creating a great enduring character that will live to the 23rd/24th century and beyond..
8:00 "...you are employing a double negative." God, how many times I've used this expression with people! Rock on Spock!
The 1 thing that rings true with all of Spock's logical, but humorous retorts is, he is VERY fond of sarcasm!
I sometimes forget how much I really like this show.
Spock and Bones’ bickering will always be my favorite thing in TOS
