Star Trek Brings All the Babes to the Yard

 

William Shatner once told a crowd of Trekkies; Get a life, will you people? I mean, for crying out loud, it's just a TV show!

 

Big Willy was yoshing, although it does help put it in perspective. For what was just a TV show has still gone to become an entire way of life for fans; spawning multiple series and a massive movie franchise.

 

I remember watching reruns of the original TV series with my dad growing up. That kind of nostalgia is one of the reasons Star Trek is so beloved; it is part of our culture going back generations. The show showed the first interracial intergalactic, even kiss on television, featured a black woman playing a scientist and proved to boldly go where no man has gone before.
