like, I feel Star Trek is less of a kid's show and more of a show for all audiences. the target audience was anyone who wanted to watch science-fiction, not just kids.

this isn't the same case as other television shows such as Friendship is Magic or the anime Polar Bear Cafe.

What kid also wouldn't want the various adventures of being stuck in another world as everything tries to kill you with little in the ways of help beyond your sibling and father? And the adventures basically boil down to "Let's try to survive another week." And then having your father fall through a portal of time to die?
And yet Land of the Lost is, quite clearly, a kid's show.

I always saw Star Trek as juvenile and simplistic, which would be perfect for a kid's show.
Apparently it's a family show and sci fi story telling standards was just embarrassingly low back then. Whatever.
