1965 STAR TREK Unaired Rare 2nd Pilot Episode William Shatner goes Where No Man Has Gone Before
MemoryCryptofCastleHills1965 STAR TREK Unaired Rare 2nd Pilot Episode William Shatner goes Where No Man Has Gone Before... The second Star Trek pilot, titled "Where No Man Has Gone Before", was produced in 1965 and first aired in 1966. It was crucial for convincing NBC to greenlight the series after the network rejected the first pilot, "The Cage". The episode features William Shatner as Captain Kirk and introduces key characters like Gary Mitchell and Dr. Elizabeth Dehner. It explores themes of friendship, power, and the misuse of power after the Enterprise encounters a magnetic storm and two crew members develop ESP abilities. Background: NBC rejected the first Star Trek pilot, "The Cage", deeming it too cerebral. Lucille Ball, who owned Desilu Productions, convinced NBC to consider a second pilot, exercising a special option agreement. Production: "Where No Man Has Gone Before" was produced in 1965 at Desilu's Culver City Studios. It was filmed in eight days, with a ninth day for pickups, and cost a little over $300,000. The episode utilized existing sets and props, including the Enterprise model and the Talos IV stage, which was reworked for Delta Vega. Key Elements: The episode introduces William Shatner as Captain James Kirk, alongside Gary Lockwood as Lt. Commander Gary Mitchell and Sally Kellerman as Dr. Elizabeth Dehner. It features the Enterprise encountering a magnetic storm and two crew members gaining ESP abilities, leading to conflict and Kirk's difficult decision. Themes: The episode explores themes of friendship, power, and the corrupting influence of unchecked power. It examines the consequences of humanity's potential to unlock unknown abilities. Broadcast: While the third episode aired, "Where No Man Has Gone Before" is considered the second pilot, and the first episode to feature William Shatner as Kirk. It was the first episode shown in the UK by the BBC in 1969. Why it wasn't the first to air: NBC considered "Where No Man Has Gone Before" to be "too talky" and chose to air "The Man Trap" first instead, hoping to capture audience attention with a more action-oriented story. Essentially, "Where No Man Has Gone Before" was the second chance Star Trek got to prove itself to the network, and it succeeded, paving the way for the iconic series we know today.103 views -
