Star Trek episode "Journey to Babel"
Season 2, episode 10 "Journey to Babel" featuring Spock's father Sarek, one of my favorite Trek characters.
Fabulous episode with all sorts of Trek aliens that also introduces us to Spock's mother. You gotta love an episode with Andorians, those blue aliens, and especially fake Andorians with communicators in the antenna. No crew member dies.
And this was the first time we ever got to see the blue-skinned Andorians.
And I may be nitpicking, but it is amazing that our biblical allusion of the tower of Babel could be another planet. I mean, the author was clearly drawing upon the fact that it is very hard for different races or tribes to work together with all of the differences. Why wouldn't the place be named Cucamonga? I love the allusion though.
