Twilight Zone'ish TOS?
I just saw the Star Trek TOS episode "The Devil in the Dark", wherein Kirk befriended a 70s equivalent to ectoplasm, commanded Spock to mindmeld with the said ectoplasmic creature, and had Bones patch the thing up after it was injured in a gunfight. (No, not at the O.K. Corral.)

This creature, Horta, was a silicon-based life form, non-existant in the universe yet Capt. Kirk was 'familiar with the theory of non-carbon based life forms.' Horta then agreed to help a human mining colony and raise all her thousands little-horta offsprings help humans with the mining.

Whatever you say...
