I got 10/10. But then again... It is my favorite episode and Trials and Tribble-ations is my favorite episode of DS9.
Next to "City On The Edge Of Forever".
In my opinion, although I do love "Trouble With Tribbles".

10/10! that was no tribble at all.
Didn't know and tried too to remember which might have been used on Deep Space nine but couldn't.
which scene? Quarks bar or something or....?

It wasn't just a scene; it was the essence of an entire episode, "Trials and Tribble-ations." A disgraced Arne Darvin gets hold of a Bajoran Orb that allows him to travel back in time in an attempt to assassinate Kirk, and the DS9 crew follows to stop him. Controlled-motion photography allowed the filmmakers to integrate the DS9 cast into the original footage; for example, Bashir and O'Brien are included in the crew lineup in the scene where Kirk is dressing them down after the brawl on the space station.
Oh... ok thanks. I think I saw that one but not sure, I will have to watch it again. We get HI channel now or Heros and Iccons channel that has all the star trek series at 8 pm.
Star Trek the original, Next Generations, Deep space nine, Voyager, and then Enterprise.
Which most of that last one I never really watched until now so all new to me now. lol
Thanks again.

That was no tribble at all!
the one with Spock's estimate and the bonus question I missed. The one where it asks which set was reused on one of the other series' or what footage was reused.

Good heavens, missed 2 and I just saw that episode!! The numbers are always hard to remember!
As all original ST fans know, the episode was penned by a relatively young author, and a book exists just about his experience in doing so. For example (it is said) that "Sherman's Planet" was named after his girlfriend (I assume it's her last name). Most evident are the somewhat "corny" jokes he inserted throughout the script, demonstrating his youthful approach to writing. I am not sure how much of the final teleplay was reworked from Gerrold's original concept. But am sure those details are out there somewhere. It is perhaps ST's most comedic effort!!
In the meantime, enjoy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Gerrold

I missed the last one because I never watched Deep Space 9.

That Deep Space 9 episode (Trials and Tribble-ations) is well worth watching!
Especially as it explains one "odd" aspect of that iconic scene with Kirk buried in tribbles.
I missed the last one since I've never seen any of those shows.
