The original Mission: Impossible ran from 1966-1973 on CBS, and in light of all the amazing television that’s been produced since then, one would be hard pressed to call it one of the best shows of all time. Wouldn’t it be nice, I thought, if my favorite television show had a similar list? But the very audacity of tackling such a project spoke to the obsessive completist in me. Not enough to actually read every review, mind you that’s an exercise for the converted. That said, I have to say I was impressed by Jordan Hoffman’s article at Playboy ranking every Star Trek episode ever made. While my SF writer friends were immersed in that universe, I was busy watching (and re-watching, and re-re-watching) the original Mission: Impossible, thereby ensuring that, somehow, I was out of step even with my own tribe. It’s probably blasphemy for a science fiction writer to admit this, but I’ve never been a Star Trek fan.
