    Personally not into that funeral thing. I have historically gone to funerals out of respect and ingrained traditional stuff.

    Well it appears that Episode #3 was filmed before Episode #1 of season #1.

    First season had 29 episodes that were shown on NBC from September 8, 1966 – April 13, 1967

    1 - Where No Man Has Gone Before
    2 - The Corbomite Maneuver
    3 - Mudd's Women
    4 - The Enemy Within
    5 - The Man Trap
    6 - The Naked Time
    7 - Charlie X
    8 - Balance of Terror
    9 - What Are Little Girls Made Of?
    10 - Dagger of the Mind
    11 - Miri
    12 - The Conscience of the King
    13 - The Galileo Seven
    14 - Court Martial
    15 - The Menagerie, Part I
    16 - The Menagerie, Part II
    17 - Shore Leave
    18 - The Squire of Gothos
    19 - Arena
    20 - The Alternative Factor
    21 - Tomorrow is Yesterday
    22 - The Return of the Archons
    23 - A Taste of Armageddon
    24 - Space Seed
    25 - This Side of Paradise
    26 - The Devil in the Dark
    27 - Errand of Mercy
    28 - The City on the Edge of Forever
    29 - Operation -- Annihilate!

    "Where No Man Has Gone Before" is the second pilot episode of the science fiction television series Star Trek. It was produced in 1965 after the first pilot, "The Cage", had been rejected by NBC. Reportedly, Lucille Ball, who owned Desilu Studios (where the pilot was produced), persuaded NBC management to consider a second pilot, thereby exercising a special option agreement it had with Desilu, because she liked Gene Roddenberry and believed in the project. The episode was eventually broadcast third in sequence on September 22, 1966, and re-aired on April 20, 1967. On July 12, 1969, it was the first episode to be shown in the UK by the BBC.

    "Where No Man Has Gone Before" was written by Samuel A. Peeples, directed by James Goldstone, and filmed in July 1965. It was the first episode of Star Trek to feature William Shatner as Captain James Kirk, James Doohan as Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott (later called "Scotty"), and George Takei as Lt. Sulu (the ship's physicist, whose character became helmsman in subsequent episodes). The episode title was adopted as the final phrase in the opening voice-over which characterizes the series and has entered popular culture, though the voice-over debuts in the first season premiere "The Corbomite Maneuver".

    Casting took place in June 1965. Jeffrey Hunter was unwilling to reprise his role as Captain Christopher Pike. Lloyd Bridges and Jack Lord were considered, but William Shatner was finally cast as Pike's replacement, Captain James Kirk. The character of Number One, the female second-in-command, was dropped on the insistence of the NBC network, and Science Officer Spock was given Number One's unemotional demeanor. NBC was worried about Leonard Nimoy's "satanic" appearance and pressured for his removal.

    Shooting started on July 19, 1965, several days later than originally scheduled. During the filming of this episode, a wasp's nest high in the rafters of the studio was somehow disturbed, and many cast and crew members suffered stings as a result. As this happened on a Friday, the weekend break allowed time for the swelling to go down; Shatner, however, required additional makeup to hide the stings during shooting the following Monday. Filming finished late on July 28, 1965; the final footage filmed was part of the fight between Kirk and Mitchell. While the schedule allowed seven days to shoot the episode, it required nine, which was Justman's original estimate. The episode cost around $300,000, around half the money spent on making "The Cage".

    Plot
    The starship USS Enterprise is on an exploratory mission to leave the galaxy. En route, a damaged ship's recorder of the SS Valiant, an Earth spaceship lost 200 years earlier, is found. Its record is incomplete, but it reveals that the Valiant had been swept from its path by a "magnetic space storm," and that the crew had frantically searched for information about extra-sensory perception (ESP) in the ship's library computer. The recording ends with the captain of the Valiant apparently giving a self-destruct order.

          IMHO, the best version of the Enterprise. It could be filmed from any angle and look awesome.

                Very nice Tim!

                Thank-you.

                Watching the original episodes of Star Trek and am at #7 above.

                The quality of the redo of the original series is very good as all I had here were the original VHS tapes from many years ago.
