Plot Summary

A 1960's science fiction action adventure series set in the 23rd century based around the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise, representing the United Federation of Planets (including Earth) on a five-year mission in outer space to explore new worlds, seek new life and new civilizations, and to boldly go where no one has gone before. The Enterprise is commanded by handsome and brash American Captain James Tiberius "Jim" Kirk (William Shatner). Kirk is advised by his two best friends Commander Spock (Leonard Nimoy) (last name unpronounceable to humans) the ship's half-human/half-Vulcan Science Officer and First/Executive Officer (i.e. second-in-command) from the planet Vulcan, and American Chief Medical Officer Dr. Leonard H. "Bones" McCoy (DeForest Kelley). Spock uses logic to solve problems but because he is half-Vulcan he has no emotions whilst McCoy gives Kirk advice with his human emotional feelings. Kirk takes the logic of Spock and the emotions of McCoy uses them both in his decision making. The trio are joined by a crew of approximately 430, including the Asian-American helmsman Lieutenant Hikaru Kato Sulu (George Takei), Russian navigator Ensign Pavel Andreievich Chekov (Walter Koenig), Swahili communications officer Lieutenant Nyota Uhura (Nichelle Nichols), Scotish chief engineer Lieutenant Commander Montgomery "Scotty" Scott (James Doohan), Nurse Christine Chapel (Majel Barrett) and Yeoman Janice Rand (Grace Lee Whitney). The series follows them as they confront strange alien races, friendly and hostile alike, as they explore unknown worlds. We see the Enterprise and her crew battle aliens, megalomaniac computers, time paradoxes, psychotic murderers, and even Khan Noonien Singh (Ricardo Montalban). The series is known for looking at then (1960's) hot topics such as sex, war, God, religion, politics, and racism and other things that make up the human condition (and what it means to be Human) through a lens of the future. The 79 (eighty if including The Cage (1966)) episode television series, which was produced from 1966 to 1969, has now cult characters and has fans all over the world. Written by Marty McKee

Trivia Shortly after the cancellation of the series due to low ratings, the staff of the marketing department of NBC confronted the network executives and berated them for canceling this show, which had been one of their most profitable series without anyone realizing it. They explained that although the show was never higher than number fifty-two in the general ratings, when running the numbers though the replacement of the Nielsen rating system, its audience profile had the largest concentration of viewers of ages 18 to 45. In other words, not only did the show have the most sought-after demographic that television advertisers hunger for, it was also one of the most successful series the network had ever aired, and did even better in reruns. This was more than ample justification to contact Gene Roddenberry with a request to revitalize the show. Unfortunately, this turned out impossible, as Paramount had just cleared out their warehouses of most of the sets and props, and rebuilding them would cost around $750,000, so instead, the studio greenlit Star Trek: The Animated Series (1973). Although Roddenberry wasn't really interested in doing an animated show, he agreed, in the hope that the show would be successful enough to revive the original series (which it unfortunately didn't).

Crazy Credits On some episodes, the closing credits show a still that is actually from the Star Trek blooper reel. It is a close-up of stunt man Bill Blackburn who played an android in Return to Tomorrow (1968), removing his latex make up. In the reel, He is shown taking it off, while an off-screen voice says "You wanted show business, you got it!" See more »
