Star Trek V, much better than the original obviously. You can also tell that DC Fontana was writing for TNG at the time, it is a lot more talky and does feel a bit like an extended episode, not necessarily a bad thing but certainly different.
It is also nice that things are not so unpleasant behind the scenes, I know stormy sets can produce good shows/films but I don't think Trek is one of them. Classic Trek is supposed to be a bit optimistic (not full on Roddenberry idealist, but at least heading that direction) and that is easier to get across if there aren't huge rows. It's clearly not perfect, the hint at "complex" relationships, but that's probably impossible.
Overall it was just a nice counter-point to the subject that should not be discussed, Trek is clearly a franchise treated with respect and being successfully by being true to itself.
