Year:    1968
Studio:  Paramount Pictures
Feature: 4/5
DVD:     3/5

Season two continues with 26 episodes. Once again the episodes look crisp, the audio is great, and it's nice to see the few minutes of extras that were always cut out of syndication when I was watching as a kid. Two or three episodes have text stickies documentary by Michael and Denise Okuda.

My favorite episodes, in episode order:

The Doomsday Machine - the basis of an SFB scenario
Metamorphosis - introducing Zefram Cochrane
Journey to Babel - introducing Ambassador Sarek
The Trouble with Tribbles - a classic episode
By Any Other Name - introducing the Andromedans, a major SFB race
