Star Trek: Time Travel

[blueray 3,534]

I wasn't sure if this would on it's own list or go on the other Star Trek one. Is it one page per show? If that's the case if this can be moved under theirs that would be great. Anyhow my pick for the best time travel episodes but there are many more including Enterprise (too tied to the plot) and Discovery (which I never saw) which I'm not including.

ToS:

City on the Edge of Forever (obviously)

All Our Yesterdays (A season 3 episode that is actually really good)

the Voyage Home (the movie with the Whales 😉 )

TNG:

Time Arrow (both parts obviously)

Timescape (This one may not count but it does have the crew at different time rates) or Cause and Effect (which maybe count less but such a good one)

First contact (borg 😉 )

DS9:

Past Tense (two parter)

Little Green Men

Trials and Tribble-ation

Voy:

Future's end (two parter)

Timeless

Shattered

I'm glad you included TNG's "Cause and Effect".  It's my all time favorite TNG episode.  "All hands abandon ship!"

It's one of my favorites, not only for Beverly's role (she's probably my favorite), but also for the increasing creepiness as they go through loop after loop.

Hands down, for me, is "Yesterday's Enterprise." I love alternate timeline stories. This one introduces the kick-ass Capt. Rachel Garrett of the Enterprise-C, the return of Tasha Yar, and space battles galore. Plus, Picard's: "Let's make sure history never forgets the name ... Enterprise." Thirty years later, that still gives me chills.

I also love that Troi gets to be super-competent in Timescape.

And I can never resist Voyage Home (especially because I lived in San Francisco in the ‘80s!) and Trials and Tribble-ation.

This is a great list! TNG's Timescape is such a great, fun episode. The mystery is compelling, and I love the combination of characters (Troi, Data, Geordi, and Picard).

DS9's Past Tense is one of my favorite time travel episodes ever. A very Star Trek plot and trenchant social commentary - that is still relevant!
