Question

Which Cult Television series celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2016?

• A. Frasier
• B. That 70’s Show
• C. Veep
• D. Star Trek
• E. Buniyad

Hint:

When answering anniversary-based questions, always calculate backwards: 2016 – 50 = 1966. Thus, you must recall which popular shows began in 1966.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Note the year of origin of the TV shows
-

Frasier aired from 1993–2004. Its 50th anniversary would be in 2043.
-

That 70’s Show aired from 1998–2006. Too recent to be 50 years old in 2016.
-

Veep premiered in 2012. Not possible.
-

Star Trek (the original series) debuted in

1966. Thus, its 50th anniversary occurred in

2016.
-

Buniyad was an Indian TV series aired in the mid-1980s. Anniversary does not match.


Step 2: Identify the correct answer
Only

Star Trek, having started in 1966, fits the timeline for celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2016. \[ \boxed{\text{The correct answer is (D) Star Trek.}} \]
