Star
Trek was an influential science fiction television
series created by Gene Roddenberry that followed the adventures
of the crew of the starship U.S.S. Enterprise. The show
began with the production of the 1964 pilot "The
Cage". "The Cage" featured Jeffrey Hunter as
Enterprise captain Christopher Pike. The pilot was rejected by
NBC executives as being too cerebral. In order to demonstrate
the action-adventure potential of the series, another pilot
entitled "Where No Man Has Gone Before" was produced.
Replacing Jeffrey Hunter as Enterprise captain was William
Shatner who starred as Captain James T. Kirk. The new pilot also
starred Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock who was the only character to
return from the original pilot after NBC's rejection of
"The Cage". Response to the second, action-oriented,
pilot was good and NBC gave the go ahead to the series.
With
the premiere of Star Trek on NBC in September 1966, few
could have imagined that this ambitious yet often uneven
science-fiction series would go on to become one of the most
actively celebrated and financially lucrative narrative
franchises in television history. Although the original series
enjoyed only a modest run of three season and 79 episodes, the
story world created by that series eventually led to a library
of popular novelizations and comic books, a cycle of
motion-pictures, an international fan community, and a number of
spin-off series that made the Star Trek universe a
bedrock property for Paramount Studios in the 1980s and 1990s.

Star
Trek followed the
adventures of the U.S.S. Enterprise, a flagship in a
23rd-Century interplanetary alliance known as "the
Federation." The ship's five year mission was "to seek
out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man
has gone before," a mandate that series creator and
philosophical wellspring Gene Roddenberry described as "Wagon
Train in space." Each episode brought the crew of the
Enterprise in contact with new alien races or baffling wonders
of the universe. When not exploring the galaxy, the crew of the
Enterprise often scrapped with the two main threats to the
Federation's benevolent democratization of space, the Hun-like
Klingons and the more cerebral yet equally menacing Romulans.
The series premiered on NBC on Thursday, September 8, 1966 in
the 8:30-9:30 PM timeslot with the episode "The Man
Trap". Critical response to the series was mixed and rating
were lower than expected. In its second season, reoccurring
guest star DeForest Kelley was added to the series' starring
cast and the show was moved to Friday at 8:30. A decline in the
ratings, however, prompted NBC to attempt to cancel the series
after its second season, but a letter writing campaign by die
hard fans of the show saved it from cancellation. An additional
season of episodes were produced, but ratings continued to
decline most likely due to the quality of the third season
episodes and a bad 10:00 PM Friday night time slot. Despite
another letter writing campaign, the series was finally
cancelled after its third season. The last new episode
"Turnabout Intruder" was shown on June 3, 1969.
The
USS Enterprise - Star Ship
The
program's main protagonists, Captain James T. Kirk (William
Shatner), Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy), and Dr. Leonard McCoy (DeForest
Kelly) remain three of the most familiar (and most parodied)
characters in television memory. As commander of the Enterprise,
the hyper-masculine Kirk engaged in equal amounts of fisticuffs
and intergalactic romance, and was known for his nerves of steel
in negotiating the difficulties and dangers presented by the
ship's mission. McCoy was the ship's cantankerous chief medical
officer who, when not saving patients, gave the other two leads
frequent personal and professional advice. Perhaps most complex
and popular of the characters was Spock. Half-human and
half-Vulcan, Spock struggled to maintain the absolute emotional
control demanded by his Vulcan heritage, and yet occasionally
fell prey to the foibles of a more human existence.
After its three year run Star Trek began running
syndication where it was discovered by legion of new fans and
became a phenomenon. The show inspired six features films, an
animated series, and four additional spin-off television shows.
Other spin-off's include novels, comic books, merchandise and an
enormous amount of fan-fiction based on the series. Despite its
short network run, Star Trek has become one of the most
successful shows in television history.
In
addition to the three leads, Star Trek featured a stable of
secondary characters who also became central to the show's
identity. These included the ship's chief engineer, Scotty
(James Doohan), and an ethnically diverse supporting cast
featuring Uhura (Nichelle Nichols), Chekov (Walter Koening),
Sulu (George Takei), Yeoman Rand (Grace Lee Whitney), and Nurse
Chapel (Majel Barrett).
Scripts
for the original series varied greatly in quality, ranging from
the literate time-travel tragedy of Harlan Ellison's "City
on the Edge of Forever" and the Sophoclean conflict of
Theodore Sturgeon's "Amok Time," to less inspired
stock adventure plots, such as Kirk's battle to the death with a
giant lizard creature in "Arena." With varying degree
of success, many episodes addressed the social and political
climate of late-sixties America, including the Vietnam allegory,
"A Private Little War," a rather heavy-handed
treatment of racism in "Let That Be Your Last
Battlefield," an even an encounter with space hippies in
"The Way to Eden."
NBC
threatened to cancel Star Trek after its second season, but
persuaded in some degree by a large letter-writing campaign by
fans to save the show, the network picked up the series for a
third and final year. Canceled in 1969, Star Trek went on
to a new life in syndication where it found an even larger
audience and quickly became a major phenomenon within popular
culture. Beginning with a network of memorabilia collectors,
fans of the show became increasingly organized, gathering at Star
Trek conventions to trade merchandise, meet stars from the
show, and watch old episodes. Such fans came to be known as
"trekkies," and were noted (and often ridiculed) for
their extreme devotion to the show and their encyclopedic
knowledge of every episode. Through this explosion of interest,
many elements of the Star Trek universe made their way
into the larger lexicon of popular culture, including the oft
heard line, "Beam me up, Scotty" (a reference to the
ship's teleportation device), as well as Spock's signature
commentary on the "illogic" of human culture. Along
with Spock's distinctively pointed ears, other aspects of Vulcan
culture also became widely popularized as television lore,
including the Vulcan "mind-meld" and the Vulcan
salute, "live long and prosper."
Aside from its three main stars, Star Trek featured a
large cast of reoccurring guest stars that includes James Doohan,
Nichelle Nichols, George Takei, Walter Koenig, Majel Barrett,
and Grace Lee Whitney. Other notable guest stars include Diana
Muldaur, Gary Lockwood, Ricardo Montalban, Sally Kellerman,
Julie Newmar, Frank Gorshin, John Colicos, Roger C. Carmel,
William Campbell, Ted Cassidy, Michael Ansara and Elisha Cook,
Jr. Notable writers for the series include Gene Roddenberry,
Gene L. Coon, George Clayton Johnson, Jerry Sohl, Jerome Bixby,
Robert Bloch, Theodore Sturgeon, Harlan Ellison, David Gerrold,
and D.C. Fontana.
The
USS Enterprise - New Star Ship
Opening Passage: "Space...The Final Frontier.
These are the voyages of the Starship, Enterprise. Its 5-year
mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and
new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before!"
As
"trekkie" culture continued to grow around the show
during the seventies, a central topic of conversation among fans
concerned rumors that the series might one day return to the
airwaves. There was talk that the series might return with the
original cast, with a new cast, or in a new sequel format. Such
rumors were often fueled by a general sense among fans that the
show had been unjustly canceled in the first place, and thus
deserved a second run. Initially, Paramount did not seem
convinced of the commercial potential of resurrecting the story
world in any form, but by the late seventies, the studio
announced that a motion picture version of the series featuring
the original cast was under development. Star Trek: The
Motion Picture premiered in 1979, and though it was a very
clumsy translation of the series into the language of
big-budget, big-screen science-fiction, it proved to be such a
hit that Paramount developed a chain of sequels, including Star
Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn (1982), Star Trek III: The
Search of Spock (1984), and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
(1986).
By
the mid-1980s, the Star Trek mythos had proven so
commercially viable that Paramount announced plans for a new Star
Trek series for television. Once again supervised by
Roddenberry, Star Trek: The Next Generation debuted in
first-run syndication in 1987 and went on to become one of the
highest rated syndicated shows in history. Set in the 24th
century, this series followed the adventures of a new crew on a
new Enterprise (earlier versions of the ship having been
destroyed in the movie series). The series was extremely
successful at establishing a new story world that still
maintained a continuity with the premise, spirit, and history of
the original series. On the new Enterprise, the command
functions were divided between a more cultured Captain, Jean-Luc
Picard (Patrick Stewart), and his younger, more headstrong
"number one," Commander William Riker (Jonathan Frakes).
Spock's character functions were distributed across a number of
new crew members, including ship's counselor and Betazoid
telepath, Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis), the highly advanced
android, Lt. Commander Data (Brent Spiner), who provided the
show with "logical" commentary as ironic counter-point
to the peculiarities of human culture, and finally, Lieutenant
Worf (Michael Dorn), a Klingon raised by a human family who
struggled to reconcile his warrior heritage with the demands of
the Federation. Other important characters included Lt. Geordi
La Forge (LeVar Burton), the ship's blind engineer whose
"vision" was processed by a high-tech visor, Dr.
Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden), the ship's medical officer and
implicit romantic foil for Picard, and Wesley Crusher (Wil
Wheaton), the doctor's precocious son.
Running
for 178 episodes, Star Trek: The Next Generation was able
to develop its characters and storylines in much more detail
than the original series. As with many other hour-long dramas
its era, the series abandoned a wholly episodic format in favor
of more serialized narratives that better showcased the expanded
ensemble cast. Continuing over the run of the series were
recurring encounters with Q, a seemingly omnipotent yet
extremely petulant entity, the Borg, a menacing race of
mechanized beings, and Lars, Data's "evil" android
brother. Other continuing stories included intrigue and civil
war in the Klingon empire, Data's ongoing quest to become more
fully human, and often volatile political difficulties with the
Romulans. This change in the narrative structure of the series
from wholly episodic to a more serialized form can be attributed
in some part to the activities of the original series' enormous
fan following. A central part of fan culture in the 1970s and
1980s involved fans writing their own Star Trek based
stories, often filling in blanks left by the original series and
elaborating incidents only briefly mentioned in a given episode.
Star Trek: The Next Generation greatly expanded the
potential for such creative elaboration by presenting a more
complex storyworld, one that actively encouraged the audience to
think of the series as a foundation for imagining a larger
textual universe.

Spinoffs: Star
Trek: The Animated Series, Star
Trek: The Next Generation, Star
Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star
Trek: Voyager, and Enterprise.
Despite
the show's continuing success, Paramount canceled Star Trek:
The Next Generation after seven seasons to turn the series
into a film property and make room for new television spin-offs,
thus beginning a careful orchestration of the studio's Star
Trek interests in both film and television. The cast of the
original series returned to the theater for Star Treks 5
and 6, leading finally to Star Trek: Generations,
in which the original cast turned over the cinematic baton to
the crew of Next Generation. Star Trek: Deep Space
Nine premiered in January of 1993 as the eventual
replacement for Next Generation on television. In
contrast to the usually optimistic and highly mobile structure
of the first two series, Deep Space Nine was a much more
claustrophobic reading of the Star Trek universe. Set
aboard an aging space-station in orbit around a recently
liberated planet, Bajor, the series generated its storylines
from the aftermath of the war over Bajor and from a nearby
"wormhole" that brought diverse travelers to the
station from across the galaxy.
Hoping
to compete with Fox and Warner Brothers in creating new
broadcast networks, Paramount developed a fourth Star Trek
series as the anchor for their United Paramount Network. Star
Trek: Voyager inaugurated UPN in January 1995, serving as he
network's first broadcast. Responding perhaps to the stagebound
qualities and tepid reception of Deep Space Nine, Voyager
opted for a premise that maximized the crew's ability to
travel and encounter new adventures. Stranded in a distant part
of the galaxy after a freak plasma storm, the U.S.S. Voyager finds
itself seventy-five years away from earth and faced with the
arduous mission of returning home.
Both
Deep Space Nine and Voyager attracted the core
fans of Star Trek, as expected, but neither series was as
popular with the public at large as the programs they were
designed to replace. Despite this, at century's end, there would
seem to be every indication that the world of Star Trek will
survive into the new millennium.

Character Guide
Captain James T. Kirk
Played By: William Shatner
Full Name: James Tiberius Kirk
Date of birth: March 22, 2233
Place of birth: Riverside, Iowa, Earth
Education: Starfleet Academy, 2250-2254
Marital status: Single
Serial number: SC 937-0176 CEC
Service record: Cadet ensign rank, U.S.S Republic;
lieutenant, U.S.S. Farragut; named captain in command of U.S.S.
Enterprise, 2263.
Awards include: Palm Leaf of the Axanar Peace Mission;
Grankite Order of Tactics, Class of Excellence; Prantares Ribbon
of Commendation, first and second class; the Starfleet Medal of
Honor, the Silver Palm with Cluster; Citation for Conspicuous
Gallantry.
As the most famous Iowan ever in space exploration, Kirk drew
fame as perhaps the best soldier/statesman/explorer of
Starfleet's first hundred years. Although questionable at times
in his interpretation of the Prime Directive of
non-interference, his charm, leadership and impromptu creativity
combined to complete many a mission against the odds; in fact,
his starship Enterprise is the only vessel Starfleet honors with
its original registry number on each succeeding namesake. It was
during these early voyages that he would also come to acquire
the tag of being a sometimes rogue in the chain of command,
although his acts always aimed at a higher purpose, and they
displayed why at the time he became the youngest starship
captain in history.
Mr. Spock
Played By: Leonard Nimoy
Rank: (Commander) Captain, retired
Serial number: S179-276 SP
Full Name: Spock (lineal Vulcan name unpronounceable)
Year of birth: 2230
Place of birth: Shi'Kahr, Vulcan
Parents: Ambassador Sarek and his wife Amanda Grayson
Education: Starfleet Academy, 2249-53
Marital status: Once married
Last whereabouts: Romulus
Service record: Cadet ensign under Capt. Christopher
Pike, U.S.S. Enterprise, 2252; promoted to lieutenant under
Pike; as lieutenant commander, remained aboard under James Kirk,
promoted to commander, 2266.
Awards include: Vulcanian Scientific Legion of Honor,
twice decorated by Starfleet Command.
As both science officer and first officer, Spock performed his
unique dual role as perhaps none other before or since. Favoring
his Vulcan heritage over his human ancestry, the clash of
cultures produced an inner conflict between logic and emotion
that would trouble him for many years and even cause a family
rift. Despite the stoic visage, his affinity for research and
theoretical science rose to what some might label passionate
levels, even as his tactical and diplomatic skills were never
lacking for the role as backup commander.
Despite his own protests, Spock often betrayed an all-too-human
affection for his captain and Dr. McCoy -- along with bitingly
wry barbs aimed at the doctor. Their battle of wits became the
stuff of legend among their original crewmates.
Dr. Leonard McCoy
Played By: DeForest Kelley
Full Name: Leonard Horatio McCoy, M.D.
Year of birth: 2227
Place of Birth: Earth
Parents: Mr. and Mrs. David McCoy
Education: University of Mississippi, 2245-49; medical
school, 2249-53
Marital status: Divorced
Children: A daughter, Joanna
Service record: Chief medical officer as lieutenant
commander, U.S.S. Enterprise, 2266.
Awards include: Legion of Honor; decorated by Starfleet
surgeons.
Known to his captain by the old physician's nickname
"Bones", McCoy's incredible diagnostic and research
talents in space medicine were exceeded only by his compassion
for friend and stranger alike. Although he thought of himself as
"just an old country doctor," the truth is that the
original Enterprise survived and succeeded as much on his
medical miracles as it did Kirk's leadership and Spock's
research.
Still, it was his role as unofficial counselor to both of them
that likely proved most successful. McCoy's down-to-earth
attitude, so to speak, found an ally in Scotty and often proved
to be the missing ingredient in any top-level deliberation --
despite the verbal sparring tossed his way by Spock.
Lieutenant Nyota Uhura
Played By: Nichelle Nichols
Rank: Lieutenant
Date of birth: 2239
Place of birth: United States of African Confederation,
Earth
Parents: Mother, M'Umbha
Education: Starfleet Academy, 2257-61
Service record: Lieutenant, U.S.S. Enterprise.
Whatever the crisis, the beautiful and efficient Uhura betrayed
her junior officer status as one of Kirk's most resilient bridge
officers, providing a calm in the sensitive and delicate areas
of first contact and diplomacy as communications officer. While
most known for keeping her department at top performance, Uhura
was not limited: she could take the helm as well as repair the
guts of any panel in her station.
Uhura was also known as a talented musician and one of the most
personable members of Kirk's crew, one of many reasons its
personality sparkled. Although her senior bridge status cut down
on her available shore leave, Uhura could always be counted on
to enjoy the traditional and timeless feminine indulgences known
for centuries.
Lieutenant Commander Montgomery Scott
Played By: James Doohan
Serial Number: SE 197-54T
Year of birth: 2227
Place of Birth: Edinburgh, Earth
Education: Starfleet Academy, 2240-44
Marital status: Single
Service record: Lieutenant Commander, U.S.S. Enterprise
by 2266
While the Enterprise may have been Kirk's ship, no one knew or
loved the vessel as did "Scotty," everyone's
affectionate name for the ship's chief engineer and second
officer. The phrase "hands-on" could have been coined
for the Scotsman with the ever-thick brogue, whose reputation as
a mechanical miracle worker in his own right was legendary.
Even so, his turn in the command chair at critical times never
lacked for grit and a cool head -- though he also earned a
well-deserved reputation for real Scotch whiskey. Scotty's other
passions proved enigmatic -- while he was known to prefer
technical journals as prime entertainment in off-hours, his eye
for the ladies was exceeded only by his nose for a good time on
shore leave.
Lieutenant Hikaru Sulu
Played By: George Takei
Rank: Lieutenant (Currently Captain)
Date of birth: 2237
Place of birth: San Francisco, Earth
Education: Starfleet Academy, 2255-59
Marital status: Married
Children: A daughter, Demora, born 2270
Service record: As lieutenant, assigned to U.S.S
Enterprise by 2266.
Amid Kirk's bridge staff, the routine helm functions and
life-or-death weaponry command were both handled by one person
-- Sulu, a commander-in-training who had more than a mentor in
Kirk. Sulu was already on the track to his own command by the
time of the original Enterprise five-year mission, although
oddly enough he first served as an astrophysicist in the science
department. It was this disciplined yet flexible mind that he
brought to the decisions being carried out at his fingertips.
Apart from his dedication to duty, it was Sulu's penchant for
hobbies that endeared him to many of his colleagues. Archaic gun
collecting, botany, and fencing were all among the pastimes he
indulged during his early years under Kirk.
Ensign Pavel Chekov
Played By: Walter Koenig
Full Name: Pavel Andreievich Chekov
Serial number: 656-5827-B
Year of birth: 2245
Education: Starfleet Academy, 2263-67
Marital status: Single
Service record: Ensign, U.S.S. Enterprise.
Though only a "green" Academy graduate, Chekov early
on showed the skills and talents that soon landed him regular
bridge duty as navigator. Soon, no less than Spock became
impressed with his promise and often assigned him as assistant
science officer despite his command-division designation.
Chekov did betray his youthful passions at times -- including
his own reputation as a ladies' man -- but always proved to be
the perfect officer in training. Still, his penchant for being
injury-prone was matched only by a zealous pride in his Russian
heritage -- often comically taking credit for the exploits of
other cultures, Earth-based or otherwise.
All this taken from Sci-Fi's
Star Trek cast list.
