This week on Standard Orbit, host Zach Moore is joined by author and critic Darren Mooney to discuss the first season of The Original Series. This concludes our backwards trilogy that started in Standard Orbit 196 with the third season, and continued in Standard Orbits 246 with the second season.
Where does the first season of TOS rank among all televisions season the Star Trek franchise? When did the series truly find itself and "become" the Star Trek we know and love? What were the hiccups in an otherwise fantastic season? All this and much more in this week's Standard Orbit, boldly listen!
