Just as we did with the first season, we’ve compiled some of the ratings for season two of The Original Series all in one place to compare. We took the ratings from a few different reviewers and calculated what their scores would be out of 100. Keep in mind that they originally didn’t rate the episodes with that exact scale, but we tried to accurately translate their rating.
We once again took a look at Jordan Hoffman‘s reviews, blogger for StarTrek.com, Jamahl Epsicokhan who runs Jammer’s Reviews, Kethinov, another Star Trek reviewer, and the duo that is Treknobabble.
The episode with the lowest average rating was The Omega Glory (The one where Kirk teaches aliens how to properly understand the Constitution of America.) which had a score of 27.
Everyone liked Mirror, Mirror just a bit more than us, but overall there weren’t a lot of big discrepancies between one reviewer and the rest. We also thought The Ultimate Computer was okay, but the rest of the reviewers liked it very much.
Here are the top 5 according to the averaged scores:
1. The Doomsday Machine – 96
2. The Trouble With Tribbles – 94
3. Mirror, Mirror – 90
4. Amok Time – 85
5. Journey To Babel – 83 Continue reading
