--------------------
Don't forget to mention the unsuccesful MANTRAP pilot that was later
redone as an episode.

--------------------
This is the first I have heard about "Mantrap" having been intended as a
pilot.  I believe that the only notable feature of this episode is that
it was the first episode that was broadcast.  The first few episodes
were shown in a different order than they were filmed.

For those of you who don't recognize the title, this is the one where
the Enterprise goes to a research planet where an old flame of McCoy's
and her husband are working.  She turns out to be a "salt vampire" who
can appear to other people as anything she wishes.
