The fan phenomenon that Star Trek spawned remains to this day 
unsurpassed, unequaled.  The worldwide cultural impact of Star Trek 
remains to this day unequaled.   Not only does it stand up as art and as 
entertainment decades later, but the tsunami like ripple-effect it had 
on  every human creature is still being felt.

No other TV show even comes close to Star Trek when it comes to IMPACT. 
   It was like when a comet hits the earth and alters the global 
environment worldwide...except it was a positive change, not a negative 
one.  IMHO, Star Trek is the greatest TV show ever, period.  The others 
on the list with it don't even belong in the same class with it.  It's 
not even close.
