The concepts presented in TOS are great. No doubting that. But looking back at the actual episodes, much of the set design and acting is subpar and doesn't hold up over time.
The core characters are fantastic though and seeing them in the good movies with better production values shows how great the are.
But like I said, the people that love TOS hold it in high regard and seem to look at the episodes with rose-coloured glasses. Probably the same way I do with TNG and some of those early seasons that I still think are good despite knowing better.
