Star Trek Turns 40

At 8:30PM on Thursday, September 8, 1966, Star Trek first aired on NBC. By 1978, the show was airing on WPIX Channel 11 on Saturdays at 6:OOPM. My father and I would watch it on a Zenith in the den, usually followed by a Yankee game. As the years passed, our lives would get busier, but anytime I catch Star Trek, it's Saturday night all over again.
