(1,791 posts)I never got to see Star Trek when it originally aired. My father heard all the talk about it being "adult science fiction" and thought it had sex and stuff in it. I finally saw it in reruns, after school. The Watergate trial preempted it, and I hated that, except for our senator, Sam Ervin. LOL

I watched the original Star Trek on a black and white TV with my Grandmother. She had gone from riding in a donkey cart to flying on airplanes and loved Star Trek.

(12,755 posts)I was almost 2 years old when the original Star Trek debuted. I don't remember this, but my parents said that it was the only show that they would let me stay up past my bedtime for. I really got to know it during the syndicated reruns. So yeah, Star Trek has been a huge influence on my life.
