Trip down TV memory lane - Part One

Just looking at da kinda shit dat comes now a days on tv (read my earlier post ;) ) i suddenly thought of da shows dat i was into as a kid ... no im not gonna put a post on shows i saw on cartoon network .. LOL ... dis is before ... when the Indian Govt didnt play "Net Nanny" .. its a pun ... where we could just watch a show .. nd enjoy it

Let da memory ride begin



" Space... the Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before. "

How cool did dat sound !!! Dats just how is sounds ... even though the show lasted only 3 yrs ... and was made in 1966 (i didnt know it then) ... it still was gud TV in da early nineties ;)

Here's a look at the team of the starship enterprise



Now to da ppl who havnt seen da show (if u all exist !!! watch da show !!! ) here da gist of it
Captain Kirk (William Shatner now in Boston Legal) and his merry men who find new planets on every episode ... they teleport themseleves using laser beams (its so kool considering it was da 60's wen it was made though it still has dat wow factor) to those planets ... which invariably house ppl like humans ... and are almost always welcomed by really hot women (either Amazon women or women from the Garden of Eden or sumthing lik dat ) yup ders a plot beyond these factors ... LOL ... der r laser guns .. fights ... aliens sometimes ... no gross makeup (according to these ppl the final frontier has hot women and earth like planets in abundance only a shortage of men ... not bad is it ? ) ... fights and a hurried escape to go back to the Star Ship Enterprise ... really cool space ship ... may be a few injuries to the team but its all cool in the end ...

The comic timing between Captian Kirk and Spock is really something that took this show to the next level ...



For all those non believers ...











And this was the in the 60's ... A tribute to a show that went by its tagline "to boldly go where no man has ever gone before" ..
