TOS is my favorite! I love the intense emotional acting. TNG is great, but you rarely see such intensity in the characters. Maybe because Roddenberry believed people wouldn't be so emotionally dominated in his vision of the future, which I understand.
Yes,I agree!Star Trek was very well written here!And,we have those lovely 🥰 memorie’s of it,too!I mean,on 🎥 film!Or,as my mom said;it was good that this series was made a long,time,ago!(in;1964).Because,this lovely 🥰 film 🎥 live’s on!😊
This is kind of a heart wrenching scene when you think about it. Two men, friends, unbelievably good at what they do yet a side of each of them wishes that they werent doing it.
Spock doesn't wish he wasn't where he is. He doesn't feel at home on Earth and isn't accepted on species-ist Vulcan. Starfleet is the only place he feels at home. The Enterprise is his world. The problem is that he finds himself caring about these irrational Earthlings and that involves emotion...
One of my favorite episodes, directed by Marc Daniels who took his assignments seriously and wasn't concerned with just getting footage and calling it a day. He also directed the episodes 'Space Seed,' 'Mirror Mirror,' 'The Doomsday Machine,' and 'I, Mudd.'
Ah fuck it, I don't care what anyone says. I love this scene, and I love the interplay between Kirk and Spock. The best part of the scene was cut, which is the ending, when Spock leaves, and Kirk is alone in the briefing room. You realize his first and only love is the Enterprise. His final comments..."never lose you, never."
This is what I find so creepy about Kirk and well, all of them. They devote themselves like monks to this cause. The most intelligent, capable and moral men REFUSE to be husbands and fathers. This is a big deal. It really is. They all seem to go crazy in the end.
This episode is full of brilliantly hammy acting, from Spock's tantrum (stamping his foot and saying "I'm an officer!") to Sulu chasing people with a fencing sword ("Cowards!") and finally "No beach, to...walk on."
George Takei gives a great interview where he said that Roddenberry wanted him to use a samurai sword and he's like "no I fenced in high school" which wasn't true....he asked Roddenberry " how many people have seen an Asian fence with a foil ?" they gave George the foil ...
@@johngibson2884 and then they gave reboot Sulu a high-tech BS samurai-wannabe sword. I was genuinely disappointed at that because Sulu did fencing, not kendo.
I love the acting here. However, I never have seen it as "hammy", but rather nuanced. And George Takei's Sulu isn't over the top, just drunkenly exuberant.
Nimoy was so good as Spock that it doesn't seem strange that a thin actor could believably be a super-strong vulcan. I am confused as to exactly how Spock recovers from the infection though. He snaps out of it pretty fully in this scene.
It's that Vulcan mental discipline. Same thing that allowed him to overcome the pain when he was infected with the flying fried eggs in "Operation Annihilate."
Numinous20111 Happy to help! It's a really powerful character development moment since we learn that Spock does feel empathy, and deeply loves those closest to him.
Tell me, why is something, shown on telelvision in the 1960's, now considered "inappropriate for some viewers," and you must be an adult and signed in to UA-cam in order to watch this clip?
At 38 years old I just started watching this series for the first time. This has been my favorite scene so far and, without looking it up, has to be the inspiration for the Ren and Stimpy episode "Space Madness".
"when i feel friendship for you jim..im ashamed" sheesh what a line!!!!, it seems so paradoxial which makes it so interesting - never heard anything like it before, i guess its not understandable for me cause yk we're human and hes half vulcan, makes the species difference feel wider. even since the first couple episodes you can sense how fully fledged, psychologically layered these characters are which makes them multifaceted and difficult to understand at first glance - therefore real in a sense. i just want to probe their brains, especially kirks line that got cut off "never lose you..never lose"
"I'm thinking of all those times on the Enterprise when I was scared to death, and I would see you so busy at your command, and I would hear your voice from all parts of the ship and my fears would fade. And now they're making me tremble." -Uhura from "Plato's Stepchildren" Someone saw the first-aired episode "The Man Trap" with Uhura flirting with Spock on the bridge and decided to ship Uhura with Spock. But a Kirk-Uhura relationship was more likely, although at the end of the day she may be Kirk's only female friend that wasn't a previous love-interest.
Yeah, it's one of the great scenes for the show and probably for all of Television. It's unbelievable that I first saw this scene when I was 11 years old, but knew I was watching great stuff. I grew to love the series and this episode even more as the years progressed. I bought the music CD from this episode too. But who wasn't at the top of their game in the mid sixties? Even garage bands with one song are being collected on Ebay because the sixties can't be beat in any form.
Iv'e been a science-fiction fan since my earliest memories. I watched THE WILIGHT ZONE, and THE OUTER LIMITS, and LOST IN SPACE, and FIREBALL XL-5, and STINGRAY, and VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA, since I was tw an dthree years old in 1963-64. I remember the pilots of LOST IN SPACE AND STAR TREK. STAR TEK brought literary SCI FI to the TV screen, in full color, an dincredible special-effects. Loved SPACE:1999,6-years later. Got all the DVDs. Now I am a successful researcher in Antigravity!

I enjoy how Kirk also slaps the communicator. Because when in doubt, slap them. Unless it's Spock. In which case, DON'T because you'll get up close and personal with that table.
My Favorite Episode with Captain Kirk. Look at the Passion in Kirk's Eyes. Hear the Determination in his Voice, God I Love this Scene, but the Gimps Cut it off too soon, before Kirk tells the Enterprise, that he'll NEVER LOSE HER, NEVER! This is the same Passion I Have for Reigna K.Mingo My Queen. I'll NEVER LOSE YOU BABY DOLL, NEVER!(;)
Taken out of context, a casual viewer walking in on this scene, at face value, might see over the top, hammy, cringe worthy gyrating. But that was the secret to TOS's long lasting legacy, quality, timelessness. Context & subtext were the core of most scenes in classic Trek, and often through the best of TNG, ds9, voy and ent One needed to be involved with the character histories, prior episodes, and prior scenes of this episode to understand the commitment Kirk had to his ship, his inner conflicts, his initial desperation in this scene followed by his infection that gradually affects Shatners performance as the scene progresses. Similar thoughts on Spock/Nimoy in this scene. Intense emotional impact when all context and subtext are taken into account and understood, as well as outstanding, nuanced performances by Shatner and Nimoy
Leonard Nimoy : When I directed Star Trek IV, I got a good performance out of Bill because I respected him so much. William Shatner : And when I directed Star Trek V, I got a good performance out of me because I respected me so much
+Bethan Holmes Because Vulcans prize pure logic above all else. When he says he feels friendship, it means the fact that Kirk is his best friend makes him weak by having emotions.
Larky368 I always noticed that too, but you are the first person I've seen mention it. If you go back to "Tomorrow is Yesterday", at the moment Captain Christopher, the F104 fighter pilot, beams aboard, the camera shifts to Kirk. You can see very clearly that some sort of a lamp is being focused on Kirks face mostly across his eyes. I've seen that in other episodes as well, but not on any other charactors.
daffidavit have you ever noticed almost every time they get A Close Up Shot of like a female officer or female civilian its like? shes always like glowing softly? not like kirk but its a hazy kind of glow. I know its sometimes in the context that there’s a male character gazing at her bc shes attractive or something but sometimes theres no context. its just. she’s glowing under some bright but soft light. idk maybe im just trippin

Why are you watching utter garbage like Discovery? It isn't StarTrek and that grotesque caricature isn't Spock. Everyone knows Spock had no adopted sister.
@@kitcat7538 I stopped watching Discovery a while ago. I didn't even finish watching season 2 . My comment was meant to imply how out of character Spock is in Discovery and as well as written as a less interesting character. I don't like the show any more than you do.
Only a few minutes until the orbit decays completely and the ship goes spiraling down the tubes, but first we must let Nimoy and Bill Shatner ham it up.
It might be worth checking out! It is by far one of the most successfull sci-fi franchises in history- and for a reason. Star Trek addresses all human conflicts in its shows, showing the tragedies and moral conflicts we all see. I know I sound like some supa-college prof, but all this to say, just watch it, or least watch one of the movies (not the 2009 one...)
Not permitted to love another woman. There's a reason that ships are often referred to as female - they're the wives of their captains and crews. Kirk is right, a ship like that permits nothing else in her officers' lives, most especially her captain. Why do you think he never got married? Why do you think he sunk alien poontang at every chance? That was him having an affair on a ship that can't love him back the way he HAS to love her - or else, his crewpersons lives may be forfeit. It's very hard to understand unless you're there, but if you don't dedicate every waking moment to your ship - the way Kirk and Scotty both did - you'll miss something. An idiosyncrasy or blip that a less attentive officer would miss because they AREN'T "married" to their ship. And that minor slip-up, in these days when they were basically flying without parachutes, caused lost ships all the time. This is part of why the Enterprise was so successful in her missions - her crew was incredibly dedicated to her and each other, and she was led and maintained by her husbands. Compare this to the 1701-D and later ships. Technology was much more mature, and formulas, programs and equations were more perfected for every little part of the ship's operation. They didn't suck the lives out of their officers, because there was so much more of a safety net, they they didn't need to obsessively pour over every maintenance report or common computer reading, looking for that one ever-so-slightly-out-of-spec number. This is what, also, was missing from Voyager. Torres treated Voyager like an old clunker, she never developed a relationship with it, and kicked it around when it misbehaved. Janeway was more concerned with the crew - the vessel was just a tool to keep them together and get them home. Tom Paris was the only one that had some kind of affection for it, and probably didn't think too hard on it after the AI incident that nearly killed him. Likewise, Geordi didn't love the Enterprise D, he, instead, loved serving on her and came into his own being an Engineer (one of the best of his generation, granted). Picard, though he had a bit of a soft spot for her, just didn't connect with the ship itself. They had a "working relationship" at best. When Kirk said "Who am I to argue with the Captain of the Enterprise?" in ST:G, he didso thinking Picard had the same affection for the "D" that he did for the original. It's like saying "You're her husband, now. You take care of her, today, as I did in the past. I respect that." Of course, right afterwards, the "D" got destroyed.
here's old school tv magic: Kirk gets hit on the LEFT side of his face...but is bleeding from the RIGHT side. *pushes up glasses, puffs on inhaler, eats Cheetos*
This quality, high caliber acting is what made star trek great, and unforgettable.
Nothing can't beat the original series not even the new series
better than the brat fest "Discovery" or what ever! just another brain fart from another fan based "uni"verse"
@@fucheduck yeah discovery is meh

Indeed. Everyone always criticized him for hamming it up but the guy really knew how to play this role... better than anyone who followed.
He is magnificent here !
*How well he played the part.

We always joke about Bill's overpausing his lines and such, but it's scenes like this... his delivery was phenomenal.
A human slap is just a slap. A Vulcan slap is like getting hit with a truck.

so a lot of the really really good episodes that show true imagination and passion were Daniels' work. Good to know..
I Mudd was the funniest ...next to tribbles

What does Spock mean when he says "Jim, when I feel friendship for you I am ashamed"?
+Bethan Holmes Because Vulcans prize pure logic above all else. When he says he feels friendship, it means the fact that Kirk is his best friend makes him weak by having emotions.
Because Spock is half-Vulcan and he tries to suppress all emotion but it's impossible.
The moral is human emotion is essentially more logical than logic itself.
It's before Spock came out of the closet.

I hate that while in Discovery young Spock can somehow say to Michael Burnham that he loves her but here he couldn't tell his own mother the same.
Why are you watching utter garbage like Discovery? It isn't StarTrek and that grotesque caricature isn't Spock. Everyone knows Spock had no adopted sister.
@@kitcat7538 I stopped watching Discovery a while ago. I didn't even finish watching season 2 . My comment was meant to imply how out of character Spock is in Discovery and as well as written as a less interesting character. I don't like the show any more than you do.
“No beach to walk on...”
What did the five fingers say to the face........"SMACK!!!!"
Only a few minutes until the orbit decays completely and the ship goes spiraling down the tubes, but first we must let Nimoy and Bill Shatner ham it up.
It might be worth checking out! It is by far one of the most successfull sci-fi franchises in history- and for a reason. Star Trek addresses all human conflicts in its shows, showing the tragedies and moral conflicts we all see. I know I sound like some supa-college prof, but all this to say, just watch it, or least watch one of the movies (not the 2009 one...)
Particularly recommend Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager
SLAP. That's how Kirk communicates!
It was the idea that man might one day be able to travel throughout the galaxy that captured peoples imagination
Captain's not permitted? Kirk hit on every alien he could.
Not permitted to love another woman. There's a reason that ships are often referred to as female - they're the wives of their captains and crews. Kirk is right, a ship like that permits nothing else in her officers' lives, most especially her captain. Why do you think he never got married? Why do you think he sunk alien poontang at every chance? That was him having an affair on a ship that can't love him back the way he HAS to love her - or else, his crewpersons lives may be forfeit. It's very hard to understand unless you're there, but if you don't dedicate every waking moment to your ship - the way Kirk and Scotty both did - you'll miss something. An idiosyncrasy or blip that a less attentive officer would miss because they AREN'T "married" to their ship. And that minor slip-up, in these days when they were basically flying without parachutes, caused lost ships all the time. This is part of why the Enterprise was so successful in her missions - her crew was incredibly dedicated to her and each other, and she was led and maintained by her husbands.
Compare this to the 1701-D and later ships. Technology was much more mature, and formulas, programs and equations were more perfected for every little part of the ship's operation. They didn't suck the lives out of their officers, because there was so much more of a safety net, they they didn't need to obsessively pour over every maintenance report or common computer reading, looking for that one ever-so-slightly-out-of-spec number. This is what, also, was missing from Voyager. Torres treated Voyager like an old clunker, she never developed a relationship with it, and kicked it around when it misbehaved. Janeway was more concerned with the crew - the vessel was just a tool to keep them together and get them home. Tom Paris was the only one that had some kind of affection for it, and probably didn't think too hard on it after the AI incident that nearly killed him.
Likewise, Geordi didn't love the Enterprise D, he, instead, loved serving on her and came into his own being an Engineer (one of the best of his generation, granted). Picard, though he had a bit of a soft spot for her, just didn't connect with the ship itself. They had a "working relationship" at best. When Kirk said "Who am I to argue with the Captain of the Enterprise?" in ST:G, he didso thinking Picard had the same affection for the "D" that he did for the original. It's like saying "You're her husband, now. You take care of her, today, as I did in the past. I respect that." Of course, right afterwards, the "D" got destroyed.
"No beach to walk on..."
Spock: Keeping the pimp hand strong!
Great episode 😊
I love that Kirk's problem is his sexual frustration overflows into the anthropomorphizing of his ship @.@ wacky!
Big pair of... nacelles.
It goes back to the days of sailing ships.
here's old school tv magic:
Kirk gets hit on the LEFT side of his face...but is bleeding from the RIGHT side.
*pushes up glasses, puffs on inhaler, eats Cheetos*
"Don't tell me that again, science officer!"
I miss the time that STAR TREK was good.
TOS, still the best.
AGREED!
Greatest scfi show of all time
And Stargate SG1 in second place.
We've GOT to risk implosion!!!
with Kirk it was four slaps.
spock slaps him once and it's over the table.😆
