...And arguably, that's one of the reasons it refused to die. Had
"Turnabout Intruder" (*) been followed by one final episode, fans
would have been left with that sense of closure, and while there would
have been the desire for more adventures, the numbers of fans would
have never reached the critical mass required to create the Trekkie
phenomenon.

(*) AKA "James T. Kirk's Crossgender Fantasy", natch.
