Star Trek: Planet of the Titans
Episode 5
Thursday, 25 September, 2025
This month, the team heads to the final frontier to look at the decade-long struggle to revive Star Trek in the 1970s. Even though there were no new episodes in the 1970s, CBS almost immediately had regrets about Star Trek's cancellation and spent the disco era trying to find a way back to the quickly growing legions of fans. As always, Halstead and Eric are ready with the tough questions, like: What stopped the creation of a new Paramount TV network mere months before it was to go on the air with a new Star Trek show that was deep into pre-production? How did Lucille Ball (yes, as in I Love Lucy) save Star Trek not once, but twice? What the heck is a Medical Parapsychologist? The answer to these questions and so many more can be found in this episode of The Inflection Cut! Show notes
