...the 1st episode of the iconic TV series Star Trek aired on NBC on September 8th 1966 ("The Man Trap"). An iconic culture was born. Resistance is futile.
Resistance may be futile, but the Borg weren't introduced until the third (or forth, I forget which year exactly) of ST:TNG.
Been watching some of the first (ST:OS) TV-series for a while now - trying to rediscover what I missed (cause I was born way to late to see Captain Kirk and his five-year-mission when it first aired). Some of the episodes are better than the ST books ... some of the books are better than a few episodes.
THank you for telling us about this milestone! (I do miss the actors who played the characters, even though I never met any in person.)
Quite so re: Borg; the statement was from someone else ;) I just thought it amusing.
Agreed re: episodes and books.
You're most welcome! And yes, some very interesting people played the characters; I'd enjoyed Leonard Nimoy's "I am Spock" book and a bio I'd read of DeForest Kelley :)
