I seem to remember reading somewhere that Menagerie was the pilot for
Star Trek. However, after seeing it last night, it seems more likely
that the story spock shows on the display screen during his trial is
actually culled from the pilot show.
What's the answer?

xx <- two-footed bug stomp! No! No! No! (to the article that said the Cage was the first pilot and the Menagerie was the second pilot). The Cage was indeed the first pilot. The Menagerie was a two part episode made later which incorporated parts of the Cage. "Where No Man has Gone Before" was the second pilot, and McCoy was not the doctor (can't remember the name of the Doctor or the actor's name). Doug Burton ATT-CP Indianapolis inuxg!burton

GR often shows a black-and-white print of it when he lectures; he says that no color print of it survives. Most of "The Cage" (with a few missing scenes and a slightly different ending) was used in "Menagerie" as the story shown on the display screen during Spock's trial.
