The writing was superb in the original series. Take my favorite episode, 'City on the Edge of Forever' written by Harlan Ellison (He finally won a 2009 lawsuit to get his due credit). The show won a Hugo Award for best dramatic presentation. (The show was filmed on the set of The Andy Griffith Show.) Then there was Balance of Terror, introducing Romulans. Then there was Trouble with Tribbles, also a Hugo nominee, and edged out by the winner City on the Edge of Forever. None of the ST series have had writing as good since then.

I thought Trouble with Tribbles was great too.
