Comedy Central supposedly has a pretty good roast of Shatner airing. If I wasn't convinced he drowned his wife, I might watch it. Roasts have gone WAY downhill since the days of the Dean Martin Roasts. Shatner's roast was almost all blue (bleeped), with silly and predictable jabs at George Takaei, etc.
George Goeble could run rings around what passes for "comedy" today, much less the rest of the folk on the old show.
Then, they had wit. Today they have potty mouths. Don't waste your time.

That episode (Darmok) may have been the most intelligent of all the ST episodes.

Yep -- the best. The least of that group was better than the best we have to offer today.

Huh? The 'least of that group' was Buddy Hackett -- a notoriously foulmouthed individual!
Five hundred years from now, little American boys and girls living on Terra Nova (11.9 light-years away in the Tau Ceti system) will know the names Kirk and Spock and Scotty and McCoy. As with Superman, Paul Bunyan, Santa Claus, and Uncle Sam, Star Trek has left the realm of mere entertainment for the storied halls of folklore.
Mazel tov to the world's favorite 'Jews in Space' Shatner and Nimoy!

Fun fact: the tune for "Jews in Space" was recycled for "Men in Tights."
