  • young pike looks like buzz lightyear minus the lone curlicue chin hair.

    and young spock looks mighty fine with the side swept hair-do lol

  • If your tired of commercials, download Google chrome and use Ad- Blocker

  • Except the fact of the matter is the 'bad guys' cannot read through LOVE and feeds on your FEAR and HATE; just the opposite of this film.

  • Although I watched all of them when they were originally on in 1966-69, I haven't really watched the reruns in about 30 years. Great story, great acting. Of course Shatner & Nimoy, but DeForest Kelley is even more impressive now than I remember thinking then.

  • pretty soon that admiral dude will realize spocks got him by the balls and he might as well stop making demands.

  • What a refreshing and artful way to dust off footage of the rejected pilot "The Cage".

  • The yes light was a fake, and pike didn't want to go back. They finally Trapped his ass. BOOM.

  • I'm a hard guy (especially when I see those babes in the short skirts and black pantyhose), but the old softie in me liked the premise of this episode and the ending. Just a real nice gesture by Spock and the aliens with the butt-heads, allowing a man condemned to a life in hell to live the remainder of his years in heaven. I'm about to cry now.

  • 7 slack jawed faggots did not like this video...

  • what an incredible ending

  • Pages that bug and force me to watch the ad 3 times, doesnt leave a positive impression for the product

  • can't watch past 6: 58. don't know what the problem is

  • to everyone complaining about the shitty commercials:

    two words: ad muncher!

  • Number One is Majel Barrett. She ended up playing the blond nurse who spent most of her time being in love with Mr. Spock. She is also the voice of the NG Ship's computer.

  • @annewrite and Deanna Troi's mom

  • @annewrite: Yes, Nurse Chapel - though she looked swEEt in raven hair. Er--not that I should, ah, know of such-things. As well, she was the Betazoid mother of TNG's Counsellor Dianna Troi - both wore dark contacts in these roles. What I just watched was a great episode - highly suspenseful at the outset. Evidently a favorite of Shatner, himself. But geesh: couldn't condure a lag device b4 Pike's planetary return? Musta been transportered to the transporter. [I'm just sayin.]

  • Faggot commercials are too loud!!!

  • @iMaDeMoN2012

    Get Adblock.

  • No name listed for actress know as number one

  • @halagianfamily12  Majel Barrett

  • THE WOMEN! I love spock :)

  • lol, what a waste of an episode. and trek fans were upset by how Enterprise ended?

  • Why Does Talos IV have the same layout as Earth's Western Hemisphere?

  • I just want to go to Orion now

  • to skip comericals

    0:01

    13:09

    27:56

    37:52

    THUMBS UP SO EVERYONE CAN SWW

  • any trick to getting these to work? I always get the commercials no matter what.

  • @egreen1989 you have to watch atleast 1 commerical

  • Wow...women used to actually wear pants on the Enterprise. lol

  • @dcbandnerd

    Yeah, that was before Roy Mustang became in charge of Starfleet! :D

  • @starrpassionfruit Very well disciplined, too. I'd probably shrug my shoulders and take her. :-P

  • the back of their heads look like ass cheeks

  • i love the tuba music @ 10:50 ... so amazing, effective and on-point.

  • You gotta wonder how they got video footage of Pike while he was captured, and even of his hallucination.

  • The funny face at 9:00 is because Pike grabbed her arm and she's pulling it back to get away.

  • lol, goofiest face ever @ 9:00 by the blond. What's the point?

  • Where do they get the transmissions from? Do the Talosians just have security cameras at all angles? And if there's no contact with Talos IV, how'd they get the transmissions? And how is the camera picking up on their thoughts? And then all Spock has to explain anything about Talos IV to the crew is a slide projector?

  • @changeling0203 They have giant heads. They can do whatever they want.

  • @changeling0203 well! I'll give you a hint! thelepathy! lol

  • OMYGOD spock is so sexy :) <3 <3 <3

  • In the original "The Cage" ending; The girl got an ilusion of Pike to live with for life. That is where they got the sceen of Pike going with the girl at the end of this episode.

  • Hahaha "THE WOMEN!!!"

  • i'm getting aggravated at the commercials being 10x louder than the show turn the volume up to hear the show and then get deafened when it plays a commercial

  • THE WOMEN!!!

  • Captain Pike has an illusion and you have reality,may you find your way as pleasant.

  • Awesome. One of the best Star Trek episodes.

  • @WestbrookNH I will agree. just imagine to b like captain pike. how horrible.

  • @centurian55428 Makes you value the one life you have and how quickly it can be taken away by others.

  • Anyone else cry at the end?

  • i did

  • "...beating their huge mishapen heads to pulp!" *lol* ^^

  • 4:37 The back's of their heads look like butts!

  • LOL... awesome. They DO look like butts!

  • @deanmerc Scary... I wonder how they made them....

  • lol, they look like they were cast from the same mold...

  • Wow. That face she makes at 9:00. I wish I had the words.  I'm laughing too hard anyway. That made my day.

  • OMG... i didn't notice that until you mentioned it.  Hysterical!! I keep playing it back...

  • @deanmerc I was trying to watch it without laughing. I gave up.

  • I laughed pretty hard at 8:30. The goofy acting is great. Also I found that kind of pig nosed redhead real cute. Here I am sharing all my thoughts over youtube, apparently

  • @LordBinky2 That blond girl is STRANGE.  Did you notice her face at the nine mintue mark? Made of awesome.

  • her bell's palsy was acting up that day

  • I watched Start Trek growing up as a kid in the 1980's, now I watch them with my #1 son Lj. Every Saturday we grill burgers and watch an episode on Youtube. It's and Anderson tradition. Goood luck Captain Pike!

  • This was the first Episode i ever watched, and that was when I was ten, I watched it some special showing of it in a theature.

    It was the first time I saw Kirk and I bsolutley hated him because I thought he was being mean to Spock, and I already knew Spock and loved him, so it really bothered me that Kirk was all mean and shit.

    Well, he wasn't really mean, I just thought he was.

    These two are mmy favourite episodes :D

  • "Captain Pike has an illusion, and you have reality. May you find your way as pleasant."

    I think this foreshadows when Kirk chose to leave the Nexus with Picard. Given the choice between a pleasant illusion and a potentially deadly reality, he still chose the reality.

  • i still enjoy them today as much as i did years ago

  • I think they get better with time, but we both agree they are enjoyable.

  • i really like the phasers used in pilot episodes. Very different & 1960's hi-tech, e.p. watch when female crew uses them ;)

  • 30:00 Spock goes : the women lol....

    where my bitches!

    this is prolly one of the best episodes. def top ten.

  • Comment removed

  • You know that they used footage from the original pilot?

  • yeah, my apologies 4 leavin stupid comment. this really is a great episode!! probaly the best

  • I was trying to figure out why I had seen their "video evidence" before. Thank you!

  • Captain Pike was in Baghdad for a moment

  • i can't stand younger spock's eyebrows DX

    I shudder when i see them.

    Other than that, this episode is amazing.

  • yea hes a rock lee fan boy lol

  • I am sick and tired of the Chase Sapphire commercials. I think I have them memorized...

  • @Washu151 if you have firefox, get the ad-on AdBlock Plus. It gets rid of the commercials. it works wonders for me. I have no commercials that i am forced to watch. try it.

  • @MacUser135 Awesome!...thanks!

    

  • @Washu151 Try firefox and the addon adblock plus. It works. I am using it now.

  • Wow! That castle at 8:20, moon, and all, is the same one from "Requiem for Methusaleh"!

  • This episode in particular and written by Gene himself !........just says alot about the 1960's ! of compassion and heart, soul and the pursuit of the human dignity. This is a powerful script, i wished number one could have gone onward in the Star Trek series, she was a compelling actress and character! And i wished a few more episodes with this version of the enterprise could have been done. Outstanding episode ! will go down in history!

  • number 1 is in every single episode of star trek. she's nurse chapel in TOS, Luxwanna Troi in TNG, DS9, and the voice of the computer in TNG, DS9, and Voyager, as well as the movies. also, she's Gene's wife;-)

  • Number one did go onward in star trek, just not as number one. Shes nurse chapel, luxwanna troi, and the computer voice in every series. also, shes Gene's wife...

  • This was a bomb ass episode!!!!!

  • I really like the pilot, with or without the trial framing device.

  • Nurse Chapel in gold with brunette hair!

  • Always said Spock was a hard partier and Womanizer "THE WOMEN!" The Booze...

  • Those Aliens look like they have butts for heads XDD

  • @Song476 Their heds look more like cooked garbanzo beans to me...

  • HAHA, lol!

  • Is it just me or are Kirk and the Commodore's medals of rank a bunch of d4s glued to their jackets? XD

  • @SophosScorpio They are fashioned out of beer bottle caps...

  • I see no reasons to insult me Captain LOL.I love that part

  • Good episode!

  • LOL, THE WOMEN!!!

  • At 1:09 it looks like we are zooming in on Earth- you can see Mexico, Florida, Central America, and the top of South America.

    :P

  • bad court martial they don't wait.

  • Totally the archetype of Stewie :)

  • I like "raise sheilds" better then "raise screens".

  • i remember the bohemian rapsody to star trek it was funny

  • pike: what? and dressed you in the same metal fabric they wear? 13:59> vena: well I have to wear something, dont I ? /, ,\

  • Fire mute spock! Captian. Brooke has rasied shields. We cannot pennetrate.

  • AAAHHHH! loud commercial!

  • Woah that was crazy!

  • Jeffery Hunter was married to Emily McLaughlin who played Nurse Jessie Brewer on General Hospital years ago.

  • If you look for that "bio" you get drawn to a link that gives you a very nasty trojan. Please ignore those posts!

  • It is so sad, the menangerie was the pilot (trial) episode for the CBS, but they wanted the women to be prettier, so the first mate, and all the women wearing pants and being equals were nixed.

    FYI: The first mate, Gene Roddenberry's wife, was switched to being nurse Chaplan.

  • Chapel.

  • Oops, bad spelling :)

  • Who do the women wear pants back then? Less sexist as time goes backward?

  • Thank god they didn't keep that original cast from the pilot episode!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Why, 'cause the women are now actually wearing clothes?

  • I use Firefox does anyone know how to remove the comercials...I'm not complaining I'm just asking a simple question...if they can't be removed that's fine..

  • Go to tools- add ons-see all reccomended add ons type in ad blocker download it and install it then restart mozzila firefox and there you have it no more pesky crest commercials :)

  • Yes, use Ad Block Plus.

    Google it. It's FREE!!!

    I don't see 1 commercial on YT... not 1!!!LOL!!!!

  • In the video description it says "hijacks" but in reality, hijacking a plane means you have the intention of blowing it up. and I'm pretty sure Spock didn't want to do that...

  • Actually, hijacking a vessel doesn't denote destroying it, only the unauthorized use of the vessel.

    1.

    a. To stop and rob (a vehicle in transit).

    b. To steal (goods) from a vehicle in transit.

    c. To seize control of (a moving vehicle) by use of force, especially in order to reach an alternate destination.

    2.

    a. To steal from as if by hijacking.

    b. To swindle or subject to extortion.

  • Oh and thank you again CBS for broadcasting these high quality episodes on YouTube; you didn't have to do that; they're great!

  • I agree!

  • And how exactly would one get rid of them? I don't have firefox. I'm not complaining about them, but they are annoying.

  • I responded in your comments section something like this--

    "I hope you know I wasn't attacking you personally; it just gets old seeing so many people complaining; CBS offers a free chance to watch every episode, and I don't see anyone besides me thanking them for it, just a load of gripes about commercials. Ads are their way to make money while giving us free shows we can watch at our leisure. sheesh"

    You also have some links to ad blocking stuffs

  • get an add blocker for firefox i dont see one add

  • If 10 years ago, you told someone that instead of different commercials, you would have to watch the same commercial over and over again, they wouldn't believe you.

  • the red head is seksy

  • With everything going on in Brooke Shield's life, why the hell is she interupting every ten minutes with that anoying commercial???

  • Colgate is terrible crest, pro health is best ALL HAIL CREST!

  • The Sound of the Commerials do not match the episode Wow super extra loud! About like going warp nine with your ears! that sucks big time

  • warp 10 actually

  • 20:49 - me and my brother always thought the stuff on his hands was rice. evil, evil rice >.>

  • Spock can claim to have no emotions all he wants but we all know he's a sweet guy. :)

  • And Super-Sexy :P

  • Finally, a captain who isn't a womanizer and a smart woman. One of the best episodes!

  • omg! Kirk is no womanizer!! so far from it, if you ask me :( i sure would like to see young Cap Kirk get him some now and then. Yes Good Ep!

    <3 My Trek!

  • Agreed! Love this episode, and it's theme of illusion vs. reality. It has Gene's stamp of approval all over it!

  • lmao 9:03 her face is hilarious!!!

  • That ending with the haunting music has always given me the chills for a better part of my life.

    Haunting music and a hell of an ending.

  • Why were Spock's eyebrows so much more bushy 13 years ago?? :S

  • I think because that's the way they were in the original pilot. (Where No Man Has Gone Before). The uniforms are the same as they were in the pilot, too, and Spock's chipper-than-usual personality.

  • Oh, thanks, I totally forgot about that! Aand yeah, I noticed the attitude improvement too, like when Spock was looking at a plant and he got this goofy grin on his face. It made me giggle.

  • In this, origionally, Spock was a Marshian, and the whole Vulcan thing had not been figured out yet.

  • @Fronator I think it's spelled Martian, not to rude and all. Anyhow, that sounds right. I'm glad that Gene went with the idea for Vulcans as we know them now. Otherwise, Spock would be almost indistinguishable from the other humans, save for his ears.

  • This seems really cool. I wonder how it feels to be famous. I would most likely not want to be famous, or just to be in a move. It still seems cool.

  • you know u could have just asked me or my mom we know how it is

  • that was creepy, yet nice. LOVED IT!!!

  • Does anyone actually give a shit about what they're advertising? I seriously doubt ads on youtube work.

  • sereously we dont give a !@#$ about colgate, we wanna watch star trek

  • who cstop whining they're brining this vid to us hd and free, I can stomach a 30 sec ad

  • you know its been medically proven that watching 30 sec ads are harmful and may lead to "ad-tumors"

  • 3:55

    Even in Star Trek they watch Star Trek! It's that good.

  • This was always one of my favorite episodes for many reasons. One of which was that I had a crush on Vina when I was a boy. Not sure what it was about her but she was hot as a blonde and hot when she was green. I always hated to see her as the mangled survivor. It was always nice to see her at the end of the episodes when they ran the credits and showed the still picture of her as the Orion slave girl.

  • Pretty horsies. ^_^ LOL

  • Young Pike is SOOOOO cute!

  • so... this is proto Q's ?

  • I can't watch any video longer than 5 seconds before it stalls out, is anyone else having this problem? It has been going on for four days and I can't figure it out.

  • @bellaballa3 Try using a different Web browser. I have that problem sometimes when I use Opera. I switch over to Internet Explorer and it seems to do better.

  • Am I crazy or does the music from 3:10 to 3:20 sounds like it doesn't belong in the First Season? Also, the music at the very beginning sounds almost too good. Did Paramount change the music in some episodes?

  • That's the fugliest effing horse ever...

  • Thar really does look like that was 13 yrs ago

  • Okay, so why did they want Pike to choose only one of the females? If they only wanted to breed them for slaves, wouldn't it be better for them to have him impregnate all three?

  • Oh! but this was in the 1960's

    The thought of one male impregnating three females was inconceivable!

  • Buttheads!!!!!!!!

  • Wow this was an awesome 2 part episode. hahaha I love when Spock smiles in the one b4 this ^-^

  • is it just me or does talos IV look like earth?

  • Spock is the bomb!! <3

    This was a great couple of episodes. They're some of my faves, thats for sure!

    *SPOILER* - The last few seconds didn't make much sense though, one second Spock and Pike go out the door and then instantly Pike is already on the planet?

  • they were showing Kirk what Pike would be like on the planet.

    Healthy, young, and walking
