random star trek thought

i wonder what would the history of star trek movies & shows had been like if they had the star trek phase II series in the late '70s.

for those who don't know or remember;

Star Trek: Phase II was the initial working title for what officially became titled Star Trek II, an unproduced American science fiction television series created by Gene Roddenberry as a sequel to and continuation of the original Star Trek, which had run from 1966 to 1969. The plans for the series were first developed after several failed attempts to create a feature film based on the property, coupled with plans for a Paramount Television Service (PTS) as a fourth broadcast television network in the United States.

the whole history is at the wikipedia article.

( where i speculate a bit )

thank your for coming to my TED talk on the history of star trek in an alternate timeline.
