Spock & McCoy Close Encounters

[@KagetoraHikaru]

Bones' whole face lit up so much when she said "teddybear" :D These two always had the best quotes for each other :D

[@DeadhunterThe]

One thing about Spock I find most fascinating is his inadvertent sense of humor in the form of unintended sarcasm

[@yamifannetje]

I dare to doubt it is completely and always unintended :D After all, he's still partly human and this sarcasm is often very good directed...

[@DeadhunterThe]

True.

[@dandeliondown7920]

My favourite Spock quip: MCCOY: "It's a song, you green-blooded Vulcan. You sing it. The words aren't important. What's important is that you have a good time singing it." SPOCK: "Oh, I am sorry, Doctor. (pause) Were we having a good time?"

[@00bikeboy]

Dude, you missed the best line from Immunity Syndrome. McCoy: "Shut up Spock, we're rescuing you!"

[@speedracer1945]

And Spock replies , Thank you Captain McCoy . Lmao at that every time😃😃

[@tomf3150]

Don't forget Kirk's nod of approval.

[@ethanshepherd4963]

Remind me again why Bones is always so sour and rude towards Spock?

[@00bikeboy]

@@ethanshepherd4963 In the context of the characters, they both take shots at each other. For example, in the episode I, Mudd, when McCoy tells Spock the new crewman has avoided all his appointments for a checkup, Spock tells McCoy "That's not at all surprising, Doctor. He's probably terrified of your beads and rattles." In terms of screenwriting, without conflict you can't have drama or comedy.

[@00bikeboy]

@@speedracer1945 Yes indeed!

[@Awesomeness121000]

"Spock, you're alive?" "An illogical question, doctor, since obviously you are hearing my voice." "Well, I don't know why I was worried. You can't kill a computer." I love Scotty's facial expressions during that scene :D he was just like "Ooh burn!"

[@TheWPhilosopher]

It was an illogical question. Unfortunately Spock isn't familiar with the popular Earth saying No Shit, Sherlock.

[@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat]

Honestly that wasn’t even an insult to him

[@00bikeboy]

Spock and McCoy are still so real to me after 50 years. A testament to them as actors, and to the writers of course.

[@mickaylashields2831]

I love how Spock takes McCoy's comment about him being the most cold blooded man he's ever known as a complement.

[@caspercat22]

McCoy's face when Spock's mother mentioned the teddy bear. He looked like christmas had come early xD

[@Janiqua]

I absolutely love how Spock kind of gives his mother permission to humor Bones, and then somehow manages to retain all his dignity, teddy bear aside. Go Spock!

[@Shanethefilmmaker]

Oh wow McCoy meeting Spock's mom and milking it for all its worth in embarrassing Spock.

[@williamanthony9090]

Well... Spock gives her the nod that its okay to share personal information with McCoy.

[@shibolinemress8913]

At 02:02, Amanda glances sidewise at Spock and he inclines his head very slightly, giving her rather grudging permission to say whatever she has in mind. It's like he surmises what that will be because she's done this before. I always love that little moment.

[@Kinoakim]

Mccoy: Shut up Spock, we're rescuing you and Spock's retort why thank you Captain McCoy gets me every time

[@TheWPhilosopher]

'Please Spock, do me a favour and don't say it's fascinating' 'no....but it is interesting' McCoy's eye roll 🤣🤣🤣

[@shanperera6953]

Have to say one of the best parts of Star Trek TOS is Spock and McCoy banter. Those two just make my day

[@hanoc101]

Little known fact: DeForrest Kelly who played Bones once that his role in Star Trek was originally supposed to be very minor but when the producers saw the fans reaction to the McCoy/Spock interplay they expanded McCoy's role. I can't imagine ST without that interaction.

[@danbasta3677]

hanoc101 And you will note that Deforest Kelley was originally intended to be Mr. Spock, however, when Gene Roddenberry watched it, he said the role just simply didn't fit him, so therefore, the role, as you can see, went to Leonard Nimoy. A very good move, as Gene decided to make DeForest Kelley the ship's chief surgeon.

[@katyajohnson2299]

The absolute glee on McCoy's face when he said "teddy bear" will always make me laugh 😂😂😂

[@StarPrincessTally]

These two. My most favorite characters on this show. Their awesomeness is magnifed when they are around each other. :D Spock-McCoy moments Are the best.

[@alanwakeish]

I always loved it when Spock turned an insult from Bones into a complement.

[@cthulhupriestess]

"A teddy bear?" Lol I love the look on McCoy's face

[@christopherthorkon3997]

The man speaking on the radio in the very first clip is none other than James Doohan (Scotty). When he says, "the greatest little automatic in the...." you can tell that it's him.

[@danbasta3677]

Christopher Thorkon Yes, precisely. Jimmy Doohan did a vast viraty of voice overs for the Original Star Trek series. He was quite a skilled craftsman in many areas.

I love it when these two are on screen together. It's always entertaining, because you know something funny is coming.

[@edmundblackadder2741]

Fact is I was born in the 90's and this is still the best Star Trek, the writing, acting and chemistry between the cast hold nothing on the other series.

[@suryalinaten10]

Awww... these 2 are LUURRVEEEE! I never get tired of seeing Bones rolling his eyes. :)

[@Tialakit]

seriously how did McCoy think Spock wouldn't hear him talking to Jim? Anyone with ears like that could hear a pin drop at fifty paces. And I want a sehlat six inch fangs and all.

[@errorsinconduct]

i would watch a series made up of just these two together

[@Aileil]

"On Vulcan the teddy bears are alive and they have six inch fangs." :)

[@jessicathethreestoogesfan2635]

I think it sounded cool

[@Chris_P_Bacon62]

IMO Spock and Dr. McCoy were the best characters when they were both on screen. They played so well off of each other. You almost couldn't have one without the other

[@nikilalakshmanan779]

I agree.

[@jackiep594]

Maybe don't lay her head on the spinning disc, Spock.

[@SheilaMoylette]

I appreciate your beauty Dr. McCoy, I appreciate your beauty!!!!!!!! (Frickin' LOVE him - that smile at 'teddy bear' = OMG!) Thanks for such a wonderful vid - great classic McC/Spock moments, I LOLd at them all!! A perfect example of perfect casting!!

Did anyone notice McCoy is in all these clips? That's why I love him so much! He always makes the scenes funny with his witty comments! Not to mention I love Spock's responses and faces too :D

[@XxMadAboutPotterxX]

Spock's face at 00:53 seconds gets me every time.

[@raymondweaver8526]

[@tomf3150]

I love McCoy reaction when Spock said he won his fourth game.

[@margotrosendorn6371]

McCoy's expression at 3:06 is just "Loooord gimme strength..." XD

[@CalVersion1]

Spock had way too much swag. You could say his swag was...out of this world!

[@barbaragordon7381]

Spock always looks so irritated when someone tells him he's alive

[@lucyhartwell2134]

The mention of that teddy bear just made Bones’ year 😂😂😂

[@danbasta3677]

I'll tell ya, The Original Star Trek Series is the BEST STAR TREK OUT THERE! Better than anything else that followed it. Can't beat the Original Star Trek Series.

[@20Infinity06]

"Spock, you're alive?!" "An illogical question, doctor, since obviously you ARE hearing my voice." They are all hilarious, but I don't know why this one really gets meXD

Bones is so handsome, really. It's surprising that they kept all the love interests for Kirk and Spock.

[@danbasta3677]

Natalia .Hanson In the third season episode, For The World Is Hollow And I Have Touched The Sky, the good Doctor did have a love interest. In the first season, Shore Leave when he was escorting Yeomsn Barrows.

My brother sneaks up with that clip every time I look like I'm loosing my temper. I just can't be mad when he has that SMILE XD

[@ACLTony]

You can actually see it on Star Trek the Animated Series episode called "Yesteryear" where time is disrupted and Spock has to go back in time on Vulcan to fix the problem and sees himself and his pet "teddy bear". Unfortunately it's no longer on KZbin except for a preview trailer.

[@shejams1]

McCoy: Shouldn't you be working on your time warp calculations? Spock: I am. LOL I love it. Ya just gotta love the Spock and McCoy banter. How about the one in the Immunity Symdrome: McCoy: Shut up, Spock! We're trying to save you!! Spock: Why thank you,.....Captain McCoy. Best one ever.

[@RealoveGSR]

Thank you so much for making this. I chuckled to myself on numerous occasions. You gotta love Spock and Bones!

[@drjosephfarah]

I loved the video, but I wish you would have continued the part where Spock points out the computer must be faulty because his games should end in draws, not wins. Great video, that was just one of my favorite scenes. :D

[@zitacarno4443]

And that alerted everyone to the possibility that the computer had been tampered with...with led to the conclusion that Ben Finney was alive and hiding.

[@LadySpoCoy]

Jonathan Myers Fascinating

[@taiyo888]

It is the nature of their relationship. They're still friends.

[@danbasta3677]

taiyo888 Very true statement as Dr. McCoy has always and will always worry about Mr.Spock if in fact the Vulcan should ever get sick and know how to treat him. He studied the internal Vulcan parts, however that's a different story if acual surgery should become an issue. Even though the both argue and go at it with each other, they both have a deep respect for each other's scientific research and knowledge on various subjects, and would offer each other's life for the other because of the deep respect they have for each other.

[@Iluthra]

They're friends, but a different kind. Adversarial maybe, but each would give his life for the other, as shown in some eps.

[@dandeliondown7920]

There were some brilliant Spock/McCoy encounters in the movies as well.

[@kayleegirl1967]

Bones: A teddy bear!?!?!? Spock: not exactly doctor, on vulcan the teddy bears are live and have six inch fangs. I don't know who won that conversation but I just can't get enough of McCoy's face.

[@StoneKnivesBearskins]

I can't believe you don't have the other great scene from 'The Immunity Syndrome' when Bones tells Spock to shut up because they are rescuing him, and Spock responds with "Why, thank you, Captain McCoy." I'm also surprised you didn't include the dialogue at the begining of "I, Mudd". That was possibly the BEST Spock McCoy banter EVER!!! Still, this was hilarious. It captured some of the best moments.

I love how there's actually this air of 'cool' on this show none of the other Star Trek's ever had. For a show people think was made for nerds, it just radiates a kind of charisma and wit you didn't see on TNG or VOY at all. Maybe a bit on DS9 but not quite like this. Outside of Dr. Pulaski and Ensign Ro of course, who were breaths of fresh air on the Ent-D. Scenes like 1:00 from all three of them for example. 2:53 as well. Nobody had any bite like this in TNG. Was so sterile compared to this, and I say this as someone who never was raised with this show. 3:25 I mean look at this lol.
