Star Trek
Details
This legendary production, which Gene Roddenberry brought to life in 1966, still holds its place today as one of the most landmark works in the history of television. Although it is about a journey into the depths of space, what it actually tells is something much more universal and much more human: being able to coexist Decently, curiosity about the unknown and humanity's hope for the future. The crew of the starship USS Enterprise, under the command of Captain Kirk, embarks on a journey to the most remote corners of the galaxy, drawing the audience along for the ride. However, what is truly fascinating here is not the planets discovered or the alien civilizations encountered. What is truly fascinating is the relationships formed within that ship. Fiery and intuitive Kirk, cool and logical Spock, so emotional and direct Dr. McCoy... The balance between these three characters is almost a symbolic reflection of the conflict within a human soul between reason, emotion, and courage. The series had a vision that was far ahead of its time when it aired. In 1960s America, seeing a mixed crew of different races and nationalities in space conveyed a powerful message that transcended the screen. Issues such as racial equality, the meaninglessness of war, the ethical limits of technology met the audience from episode to episode as a social query disguised as science fiction. Therefore, over time, the production went far beyond being an entertainment product; it evolved into a way of thinking, even a philosophy of life. When it was canceled by NBC after only three seasons, no one fully realized how big a mistake this was. But its growing audience through reruns in the following decades truly made this production immortal. The films, series, and the vast universe that still endure today all sprouted from the seed of those first 79 episodes. For those wishing to embark on a journey among the stars, this production serves both as a starting point and an undisputed classic.

The original series may be a bit hard to watch with a modern mind set, but the episodes still contain the key discussions on what it is to be human. Really the show was a great platform for modern thinking and is worth watching to understand the process that people went through to get to the modern day. Yes it is Science Fiction, but really it is Social Commentary.

Before Star Wars, this was a fan favorite for sci fi fans alike! It was campy, cheesy, entertaining, and a little bit pervy! I mean, C'mon, there were scandidly clad women in the show, even for the 60s! And don't get me started on the Starfleet women's short skirts! Probably my best highlight of the show! 😅 But yeah, the original series was the best.

Star Trek (AKA Star Trek The Original Series, AKA STTOS) is a series that has had a dramatic influence across much of the science fiction genre, and as some have suggested, influenced culture around the world. The writing, directing, and cinematography of Star Trek are top-notch, even by today's standards. On par with more recent series like Battlestar 2004. From the top writers and directors of science fiction of that era, sophisticated storylines across the series deal with challenging top...

I think I am required by law to like this the most, right? Even if I am a Voyager fan? I mean, if I don't they will strip me of all my credentials. I will be kicked out of the club and banned from every comic book store across America... ... actually in 2022 that doesn't sound that bad... ... but, Yeah, you have to love Kirk, the country boy in space. The womanizing sailor. I mean, some people call him the space cowboy, some call him the gangster of love. He was just brilliant. Spock w...

Really hard and often boring to watch. Most stories lack a clear goal or motivation. Things just happen. At the same time its full of overacting and empty dialogue. Let me explain what I mean by comparing a Star Trek episode with a similar episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation: In episode S01E03 of the original Star Trek named "Where No Man Has Gone Before", the Enterprise happens to leave the galaxy and while flying through a nebula one of the crewmen is bestowed with supernatural powers...
