Wes' favorite episodes from both Star Trek: The Original Series and Star Trek: Enterprise.

Across seven combined seasons of television—three from The Original Series and four from Enterprise—Wes has spent years revisiting, re‑evaluating, and rediscovering the episodes that shaped his love of Star Trek. With so many classics, deep cuts, and character-driven gems to choose from, narrowing down favorites from each season is no small task. But anniversaries call for bold choices.

To celebrate two major franchise milestones—the 25th anniversary of Star Trek: Enterprise and the 60th anniversary of Star Trek itself on Twin Cities Trekkies, Wes dives into both series with a curated list that reflects not just critical acclaim, but personal connection. For each season of The Original Series and Enterprise, he selects three standout episodes that continue to resonate with him today. These picks span everything from groundbreaking sci‑fi concepts to emotional character arcs, from iconic moments in Trek history to episodes that deserve far more recognition than they get.

And because no Trek list is complete without a few extra nods, Wes also highlights two honorable mentions from each series—episodes that didn’t quite make the top three but still hold a special place in his heart. Whether it’s a classic Kirk-Spock-McCoy adventure or a quietly powerful moment from Archer’s crew, these selections paint a vivid picture of what makes each show unique.
