STAR TREK! ♥

It's been 25 years since Star Trek: The Next Generation came out?! :O
I never would have guessed that. Wow.

I'm gonna make these article blogs really boring soooo.. Yeah.

Facts:

• In 1994, ST:TNG had 15-20 million viewers a week. My god, that's a lot.
• In the 1960s, people only watched action-y shows (men) and soap operas (women), until ST:TNG came along, entering it's own mainstream of "nerds".
• Many shows/movies wouldn't exist without the creation of Star Trek.

Comments:

• I think it's awesome that he X-Files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, etc, wouldn't exist unless Star Trek was created. They fall under the widespread mainstream of nerdiness.
• Again, STAR TREK HAS BEEN OUT FOR 25 YEARS?!

Question:

• How come people honestly didn't like sci-fi movies/shows as much as (stupid) soap operas or just action movies? It's weird.
