    Quite possibly the most influential TV shows of all time. Gene Roddenberry created a complex imaginary universe still admired by Sci Fi fans today with a cult following that is now mainstream. The Star Wars world is the only other imaginary universe that may come close to its complexity, but I think Star Trek is more complex due to having more factions and species.

Gene Roddenberry created a complex imaginary universe still admired by Sci Fi fans today with a cult following that is now mainstream. The Star Wars world is the only other imaginary universe that may come close to its complexity, but I think Star Trek is more complex due to having more factions and species. This show had a an Asian, an African woman, and Russian as high ranking members of the crew, which at the time was unheard of. It featured TVs first interracial kiss between a Caucasian (Kirk) and an African (Uhura) thanks to William Shatner intentionally ruining all the footage they shot where they tried to pan the camera up to hide it because he felt it was absurd that they wanted to edit it out. And of course there were always those green alien species Kirk was always hitting on lol. I think the different alien factions represented different aspects of ourselves, Human-emotion, Vulcan-reason, Klingon-Libido, etc. This show had many episodes with intellectual and philosophical themes, with just enough Space Cowboy fighting thrown in to keep the network happy (Gene had to market it as "Gunsmoke in Space" to finally get it on the air. It used allegory to tackle subjects like racism, the senselessness of war, the dangers of becoming absolutely dependent on technology, etc. Although the show looks corny by today's standards, it was an amazing show for its time and still better than most of the junk on TV today, definitely a 10/10.… Expand

    It is not perfect, but it comes very close to it, because there are no bad episodes, there is only the perfect, good and reasonable, the topics range far beyond the science fiction, go areas and human etc, iconic characters and themes make this series addressed the mother of science fiction.

    Star Trek is one of the most influential TV shows of all time and even close to it's 50th anniversary it still lives on.

    Star Trek is the pioneer of modern Sci-Fi long before Star Wars was even conceived. I highly recommend picking up the restored Blu Ray edition sets.    … Expand

    Classic. It's one of the backbone of Science fiction on tv, still enjoyable and fun to watch this days.
    This show (or his fanbase) was the precursor of many things... like sci-fi convention or fan fictions.
    It's also a classic of pop culture and a great meme and gif generator.

    The Beginning Of An Iconic Franchise
    1966’s Star Trek started one of the most popular and influential franchises with a huge terrific impression even today.

    No matter how hard newer entries in the Star Trek have tried, nothing can ever replicate the sheer fun of Star Trek TOS. Don't go in expecting a gritty, serious sci-fi show. The 60s wackiness just adds to the experience, ranging from delightfully silly to genuinely emotional.

Don't go in expecting a gritty, serious sci-fi show. The 60s wackiness just adds to the experience, ranging from delightfully silly to genuinely emotional. This show has what's probably the most memorable cast of characters, which is no surprise considering how everyone has at least heard of Spock or Captain Kirk. Season 3 might have suffered a little with Roddenberry's departure, but this is still easily a 10/10 for me.… Expand

    Star Trek is valuable as a historical artifact for those who are interested to learn about either Sci-Fi or the Cold War, but is incredibly boring otherwise. Future development of the genre and philosophy as it relates to anthropology makes all of Star Treks innovations obsolete (regardless of their importance).
