IDK who was the DOP on the TOS episodes, but they made a ton of use of light and shadow on tight shots. It's honestly quite heavy handed at times -- the best example is probably "The Enemy Within."

A tiny black and white TV. It was used to advertise color TVs, though, so it was part of the push for that.
