    Ah now.. it's not that bad. Like pc games in the 80s it was more about the story than the fancy special effects.

    The first episode I ever saw of Star Trek is on at the moment... The one with the shapeshifting salt vampire... That think freaked me out as a kid.

    To be serious - If you consider TOS in its context (the mid-1960s) it was approx 100X more innovative and cutting-edge than TNG, DS9 or any other sci-fi TV show that I can think of at the moment.
