A lot of peeps I've talked to seem to think it was "The Enterprise Incident", but I find myself leaning more towards "Elaan Of Troyus."

What do YOU think?

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.

I've always been partial to "Is There In Truth No Beauty?" and "All Our Yesterdays."

Anyone listing "Spock's Brain" or "Turnabout Intruder" will automatically be banned.

What do I get if I say "Way To Eden?"

I *just now* watched "Turnabout Intruder" and I say with conviction that it's a good episode. And "Way To Eden" is a fun one.
You, sir, are engaging in a 'Herbert' mentality in prescribing an expiration date to this wonderful 60's cheese!

Season 3? I like The Savage Curtain a lot. The episode is a bit weak in general, but the portrayal of Abraham Lincoln by Lee Bergere was absolutely perfect. There are many charming and humorous moments between Kirk and Lincoln. I'm also partial to actor Phillip Pine, who played the evil biological war-starter Colonel Green. He was in one of my favorite original Outer Limits episodes called The Hundred Days Of The Dragon. And also a great performance by Barry Atwater as the Vulcan philosopher/leader Surak.

Which is the best of the worst? Sheesh...
Season 3 has too much cheese factor. All of it. Plenty of better stuff in either season 1 or 2

I never understood why season 3 has such a bad rap.
Each season has a clunker or two, and Spock's Brain is the only bad episode I can recall.

SPECTRE OF THE GUN.
One of my favorite episodes of the entire series, not just season 3.

Agree 100%!. Season three has many of the best episodes of the entire series. My faves are:
Plato's Stepchildren
Enterprise Incident
Spectre Of The Gun
Day Of The Dove
Paradise Syndrome
Let That Be Your Last Battlefield

Been too long since I saw S3 to recall properly but if it's the one I'm thinking of then I liked Elaan Of Troyus. I haven't got there yet on my remastered DVD watching so I'll reserve final judgement till then.
The Enterprise Incident, Turnabout Intruder and Spectre Of The Gun were also great episodes that I do remember well.

"Let that be your last Battlefield" rocks.

Good stuff in season 3 there is.

I never touched her tears, so not the big love you might expect. France was a spicy-hot space mama with mega-attitude for sure though, and the episode gets kudos for her excellent performance.
