Science fiction show with one of the best casts ever put together on TV. It's use of color and sounds make it trapped in it's own bubble and give it a timeless cartoon feeling even fifty years later. Smart stories (for the most part) with great plots and some great inventions. It had one of the most beautiful starships ever designed and the series is full of iconic moments and legendary dialogue. Words that got created here now exist in everyday life. Several episodes have some pretty risky sexist costumes on highly attractive girls that is everything but political correct. Even the worst episodes (most of them during the series' last season) are so hilariously terrible they become Grade Z-fun like a perfect Ed Wood movie. Low budget make the puppets look like something made in kindergarten and there are blank studio-sets of colored background that are terrible to look at and make the series look much cheaper than it deserves to be. The moralizing can sometimes ruin an otherwise highly entertaining episode. Still, it is impossible to take away the importance of this show and most of the episodes are treasures to look at.
