I like the original Star Trek, and Spock is my favourite character. I like the episode, where they were on this planet that had giant plants and flowers. I don't remember the title of that episode.
"This Side of Paradise".

The one with the blob-monster that is afraid of humans and writes "NO KILL I" on the ground... classic.
"Devil In the Dark".
Yes, I'm a bit of a Trekkie - why do you ask?
My favorite series was
Deep Space Nine, or, as we liked to call it around our house,
As the Station Turns (supporting our contention that the best soaps are SF shows - another classic was
All My Cylons).
Favorite character was Garak, if only for the conversations he had with Dr. Bashir.
("My dear doctor, everything I've told you was the truth!"
"Even the lies?"
"
Especially the lies.")
And now I'm blanking on the title of my favorite episode - in which, in order to bring the Romulans on board for the Dominion War, Sisko consents to let Garak manufacture evidence of thus-far-nonexistent crimes against the Romulan Star Empire by Dominion forces. And when the Romulan ambassador figures out that it's faked, his ship home mysteriously explodes. At the end, Sisko is still wrestling with his conscience - he was at least indirectly responsible for the deaths of everyone aboard a Warbird, but he probably saved the lives of most of the Alpha Quadrant, but then again maybe they could have succeeded without the Romulans anyway....
Another favorite was the season-one obligatory Q episode.
("You hit me! Jean-Luc would never have hit me!"
"I'm not Picard.")
