Shooting order might be given by stardate order.  This is at least true in
part according to _The Making of Star Trek_ where Roddenberry said he came
up with a complicated explanation for stardate computation to answer a
viewer's query of why stardates weren't sequential during the original
airing.  The real reason he said was that the episodes weren't shot in the
order they were aired.  Anyway here's the TOS episode list ordered by
stardate.  Episodes with unknown stardates are listed at the bottom.
