Reply #61 – August 09, 2007, 12:37:49 AM A lot of my wasted brain capacity is actually from Star Trek!First interracial kiss shown on television: Kirk and Uhura (though they were being "forced" by alien mind control).Not just Star Trek though...First married couple shown to actually sleep in the same bed: Brady Bunch people like to claim it was Mike and Carol Brady...but it was actually Herman and Lily Muster on The Munsters.
