I can see this being an interesting class. In the early years the show explored possibilities in science that we've since realized. It can be kindof an eyeopener to go back, watch the first shows, and then look at what we are capable of now with technology. I must say when they first made it they were visionaries in some small way.
Also it has been around for so long, gone through such evolutions and yet maintained such a broad fan base that I would dare say it might be a small part of our culture now.
To study it could be valuable and to use it as a springboard to discuss other issues could be even more beneficial. If the teachers can use this oppotunity to it's maximum then it could be a very good thing. They will have the students interest and attention - it goes a long way toward actually getting a student to actually learn.
