[net.startrek] Unreleased Star Trek

class@rayssd.UUCP (12/05/84)

Happy to hear from all of you Star Trek fans that there will be a
Star Trek IV movie.

Several years ago, I saw a TV talk show with guest DeForest Kelley
(Dr. McCoy, to all of you non-guru's). He said that there were
three or four Star Trek (the series) episodes made, but never
shown!

Imagine the implications of this IF it is true: some never-before
shown Star Trek episodes! I do not know if they were later released
along with the ones in syndication or not (though this would be
silly to talk about if everyone knows them already!).

Rumors aside: I have only one possible piece of evidence to support this.
The series episodes end credits were written over still-scenes
from the various episodes. At least one episode contained a still-
scene from an unknown episode. The scene appears to be Sickbay on
a diagnostic bed--an android-like face staring into the camera, the
body wearing what appears to be a grey duty uniform as used in
the first season sometimes. It only lasts a few seconds, and of
course it is over-written by Key Grip junk, etc., but it was there.
I do not remember the episode to which this belonged.
(Though perhaps these were the androids prepared by Sargon and Company
while inhabiting Kirk's, Spock's, and Diana Muldar's bodies...I just
don't know!)

I admit that this glimpse was obscure. Does anyone within range of this
message know anything about this?

If these episodes do exist, who has them? How can mere mortals like me
see them?

Regarding possibly unseen Star Trek episodes, if there is even one I haven't
seen I would give my first born and a good piece of cheesecake to see it. Well..my first born anyway...
