   The supposed reason (or at least one of them) the title didn't   
   originally include "Star Trek" was to try and attract viewers who   
   wouldn't normally watch a "Star Trek" show ... which of course is a   
   typical big cheese's idea since it's bleeding obvious it's a Star Trek   
   show and only proves what brainless idiots are now in charge of the   
   franchise.  :-(
