Space Seed Star Trek - The Original


Synopsis:

Discovering a sleeper ship, the Botany Bay, the Enterprise revives the people who have survived.  They turn out to be a group of Super Humans, genetically bred people, from the late 21st century.  Their leader, Khan, was the most famous of them all.   Now he is back and his ambition has not subsided in the least.

Although this doesn't have a 10 rating from me it is still one of the best Star Treks.   It's legacy, Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan, is also one of my favorites.   Ricardo Montebahn does an excellent job (in both).   This show was interesting because it shows the situation from more than one side and the resolution shows an understanding and compassion on Kirk's part to the forces that drive Khan.  Definately a well written show with action, intrigue, and the ubiquitous fight at the end.
