How is this even comparable? Doesn't Star Trek lean more towards the "sweaty 30+ year old basement dwelling virgins" while TMNT is skewed more towards children? They occupy completely different facets of pop culture, so comparing TV slots, movies, and conventions just seems kind of weird. I've personally never met a single Star Trek fan my age nor have I ever really heard it be brought up in day to day conversations by anyone.
Star Trek by far has the more dedicated fanbase as that is pretty much the nature of anything sci-fi, but I don't know if I necessarily believe it's more culturally recognizable or more popular than Ninja Turtles. I feel like Ninja Turtles just has a far wider reach because it falls into the same category as stuff like Marvel and DC and therefore has a more casual and generic appeal across the board instead of one very large passionate group of fans.
