Oh yeah there are all sorts of inconsistencies which, as you suggest, helped the drama move along ~ like not being able to simply locate and beam-up someone in danger, or why a starship's sensors can't detect a cloaked ship ~ but I'll take it over the all-too-perfect world of contemporary science fiction like in NextGen which was often missing real tension or action.   It was the lack of resources the old show had; the meager budget, etc., and the blend of thoughtful, smart sci-fi with high energy movement that made the original so good.
Agreed, and I think the fairly limited budget made them all the more creative. I also think that the original has aged better than, say, TNG. I liked TNG a lot when it came out, though, but liked with later series, it got too talkie-talkie and far too much technobabble.

Star Trek TNG's Conspiracy was one of my favourites of that show, but I still prefer the amoeba like creatures in Operation --Annihilate! (re-watched this last night) that look like that fake vomit you can buy in gag stores to the stop-motion creation in TNG.

That episode was filmed on a college campus in California (not sure which one, but the archetecture was very modern-looking in the late-60s.
