Episodes

First pilot

Season 1

Summary
The Starfleet vessel  sets out on a five-year mission to explore new worlds and seek out new lifeforms in the Alpha Quadrant of the Galaxy. Under the command of Human Captain James T. Kirk and the Vulcan Spock, the Enterprise comes across many strange lifeforms in the first year of its mission – including shapeshifters, androids, and even more bizarre creatures. Elsewhere, there are run-ins with several prominent species, including the warrior race of the Klingons, the Romulan Star Empire, and the Gorn.

The rest of the crew develop close bonds on the long journey, and even as each one experiences the joys of the brave new world of space, they all experience grief and sacrifices. Amongst those who grow close as part of the senior staff are one of the ship's nurses, Christine Chapel, the ship's doctor Leonard McCoy, Kirk's yeoman Janice Rand, helmsman Hikaru Sulu and communications officer Uhura.

Background information
 Production for the initial season of Star Trek cost an average of US$190,635 per episode. (Some episodes went largely over budget, such as , which cost $250,396, the most expensive of all episodes except the two pilots). But this figure would gradually decrease in the two seasons to come. (Inside Star Trek: The Real Story)
 Each episode was scheduled to be filmed in six days; however, many of them went over schedule, resulting in one or two extra days of shooting. When Paramount Pictures took over Desilu in mid-season 2, schedules became much more strict, and episodes had to be completed in six days (closer to five and half days actually).
 The first season of TOS was nominated for two Emmy Awards in 1967 as "Outstanding Dramatic Series" and "Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Drama – Leonard Nimoy".
 The episodes , , and  won Hugo Awards as "Best Dramatic Presentation".  and  were also nominated.
