Except for the half of them that do.

No, when you're checkmated, you say "I concede" or "Good game", you don't actually have to say "Checkmate," we can all read the article and see that you didn't, and are 100% incorrect.

That's just a lie.

Except that Trump literally said today that she's still using the server.

I have a soft spot for "The Way to Eden" (as bad-fun) because the first time I saw it was with my uncles, half or more of whom are/were hippies, and they are mostly exactly the right age to have watched it a whole bunch back when it was all the "Star Trek" there was… point being, they even knew the bad ones pretty

That's all fair, but to be honest, even putting aside what I said below about it being a totally esoteric specific thing relating to me, I would trade all of those things (because they all have multiple better examples) for Kirk reading the Constitution. I've never tried to separate my love of Shatner from my love of

I have a friend who always loved Next Generation, but he's never been able to get into the original because he only started as an adult, and the low budget effects and '60's style of it all require (I believe) some childhood nostalgia in order to really embrace. He and I both have the same experience with "Dr. Who",

Watch the last two minutes of "Shore Leave"; if the smile on Kirk's face doesn't say "#4 (but #1 chronologically)" to you, I don't know what will.

McCoy just gave up a threesome with women programmed to do whatever he fantasized about. So I have to assume he had sex with the Yeoman immediately after the episode ended (she's already smiling at him again).

Also, Kirk seems much more passionate about Finnegan than his ex-love. If somebody is looking to make an argument about Kirk being gay, this episode seems like the foundation to build it on.

Being fair, McCoy is dead now and the plane still hasn't come, so I guess she could be fair game, but I still doubt it.

McCoy is pretty aggressively pursuing the girl, at this point, if Sulu steps in and tries to hit on her, he's just being a jerk. While McCoy is doing this, Sulu is (if I understand the rules of the episode correctly) fantasizing about swordfights. [I never really thought about how the end of "Ghostbusters" was like

Don't forget "Patterns of Force". "Spectre of the Gun" is close but distinct enough that if it were a better episode, I'd probably forgive it.

I kind of feel like they took the third part of the original triangle and split it between McCoy and Uhura, so neither of them is as developed as McCoy used to be, but also the third leg is missing from the table, so it's very wobbly.

I started watching just to check this scene, and almost the first thing that happens in the episode is probably the closest the show ever comes to explicitly saying that Kirk and Spock are intimate.

I tend to be kind of dismissive of the "Planet Backlot" episodes overall, but the last time I did a re-watch, "Bread and Circuses" was a nice surprise, maybe not great but "better than I remembered or was expecting", which is about the best you're gonna get with a show I watched so much as a kid that I can still

Based on the explanation of the ponn farr, I think it's fair to say that Spock definitely had sex prior to the show (and just as fair to assume that he never had sex during it).

For what it's worth, I would've forgotten the Roman even if I had kept trying after I had those two. (I thought maybe you meant Carol Marcus until I saw "in the show".)

Miramee is pregnant with their child before she dies, so that's three then.

Lest we forget, "Wrath of Khan" has explicit confirmation of another time that Kirk had sex too.
