I used to hate on star trek even though I have never taken the time to watch it. After reading the article I would like to watch star trek because it seems to have more of a meaning in the real world. There are definitely some similarities to the cold war and I would like to watch the show to see if I could understand the underlying meaning of some of the episodes.
Like Aaron I have never really taken the time to watch Star Trek. But it is really interesting to think about how it could be related to our own world history. I'm glad we get to watch it in class and are able to see some of the correlations.
ReplyDeleteit's werid because i use to hate it too, especially when my dad would watch it. but now it all makes sense.
ReplyDeleteMy dad used to watch star trek and i always thought it was weird but now that I know a little more about it my opinion of it has shifted.
ReplyDeleteI was definitely more intrigued by Star Trek after learning the ties it had with the Cold War, but I could have done without Shakespeare.
