Feminism Rating: 3/5

ChickFlick Rating: 1/5

Commentary: The original 'Star Trek' series, airing in 1966, was groundbreaking for its time in terms of diversity and social commentary. It featured a racially diverse cast, including Nichelle Nichols as Lieutenant Uhura, one of the first African American women in a major television role, and George Takei as Sulu, an Asian character portrayed in a positive light. The show tackled various social issues such as racism, war, and human rights, which contributes to its wokeness score. However, the series was still a product of its time, with some gender roles and dynamics reflecting the 1960s norms, which is why the feminism score is moderate. While it did have strong female characters, they were often in supporting roles. The chickflick score is low as the show primarily focuses on science fiction and adventure rather than romance or themes typically associated with the 'chick flick' genre.
