The last episode of the 2nd season of Star Trek was intended as pilot of a spin-off TV series featuring Gary Seven as a "futuristic James Bond", in case Star Trek got canceled after the second season. However, Star Trek was renewed for a third season and Assignment Earthwas never produced.
WI Somebody at CBS really liked the idea and decided to produce it anyway? What would be the effect on the future of the Star Trek series? Would the movies and series still be produced?
I for one, am a big fan of the pervasive sixties-ness of the concept. You can't get more sixties than a Interstellar Spy in a Nehru jacket with a shape shifting cat-woman and a Blond secretary defusing cold war tensions.
How would it turn out if it was made? Would it be a successful as Star Trek: The Next Generation?
