In September of 2016, Star Trek will celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of its first episode.Launched back in 1966, the series and the property as a whole has since become a cultural institution and five spinoffs, dozens of movies and a successful reboot in 2009. However, since JJ Abrams turned Star Trek around and made into a broader appealing property, fans of the series have felt somewhat neglected. There hasn't been a Star Trek-related TV series since Enterprise - which was cancelled unceremoniously in 2005 after just four seasons. All previous spinoffs hit seven seasons.There's been constant rumblings and rumours surrounding a supposed new series, although nothing has been made concrete as of yet. It's easy to see why in today's market. For one, Paramount is clearly backing the movies instead of a TV option. The box office takings for Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness reached in excess of $300,000,000 and were both received well by critics and audiences alike.
All previous spinoffs hit seven seasons.
