Did you know that Star Trek: The Next Generation was the first — and currently only — syndicated television show (a show produced outside of network television, then sold to networks for broadcast, examples include Baywatch, Xena, and Legend of the Seeker) to be nominated for the Emmy for Best Dramatic Series? It was nominated for its 7th season (most likely as a testament to it’s cultural significance rather than the quality of that particular season itself) in 1994 but lost to Picket Fences. But as everyone says, it’s an honor just being nominated.
