In Galileo Seven Spock also says something like, "I, for one, do not believe in angels," indicating his skepticism about an afterlife. Does that make Spock the first (implicitly) atheistic character on a network TV series?
Beats me. I'd guess Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Dr. Who or some other show snuck the concept in somewhere.
The Twilight Zone has more of a religious look-and-feel to it, with allusions to biblical stories and folk christian beliefs. One episode even features a christian martyrdom without once mentioning Jesus.
