Star Trek: The Animated Series Season 2 Episodes 1 & 2

Join me as I cover episode 1 "The Pirates of Orion" and episode 2 "Bem" of Season 2 of Star Trek: The Animated Series. One is my favorite episode of the Animated Series, as it's a great character story for Kirk as he's willing to go head to head with Orion pirates in order to save Spock's life, and he using his wits to defeat them. If only anyone could pronounce "Orion" correctly. The other is one of my least favorite episodes of The Animated Series the features a silly and annoying character who messes with Kirk for no good reason. And Kirk purposely angers a powerful nature God by doing the one thing he was told not to do, and yet somehow still gets away with it.
