STAR TREK - LOS ANGELES TIMES SHOW TRACKER: The enterprise of 'Star Trek' is explored on Science's "Trek Nation'
November 30, 2011
by Greg Braxton
The original mission of the crew of the starship Enterprise of "Star Trek" was "to boldly go where no man has gone before." The Science network will celebrate the 45th anniversary of the "Star Trek" franchise Wednesday night with the premiere of a new documentary, "Trek Nation," which will explore the continuing legacy of "Star Trek" while featuring exclusive footage that few men have seen before.
The special, which airs at 8 p.m., also salutes late "Star Trek" creator Gene Roddenberry and his vision for the future, spotlighting interviews with fans such as George Lucas, J.J. Abrams, Seth MacFarlane and several alums from the TV series and "Star Trek" films.
Included in the special are snippets from hours of exclusive footage, including never-before-seen home movies from the Roddenberry family and the first-ever "Star Trek" convention. Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry, the 37-year-old son of Gene Roddenberry, is the host and executive producer of the special, which also chronicles his personal journey to gain insight into his father's groundbreaking vision.
Roddenberry discussed the special in a phone interview from London, where he is attending a wedding...
... Q: What is the biggest lesson you learned about your father?
Roddenberry: "Working on this was a very collaborative effort. The main thing that happened was learning things about my father that were not easy to hear. I learned early on that I needed to humanize him. He was put on a pedestal so early in life, and I needed to find out who the man was. Working on this brought him to a level where I could connect and identify with him, and love him even more. I do have one hope that audiences will continue to love and admire him, but also that they will realize that anyone can achieve greatness if they have the passion and will to see it through..."

ONCE UPON A TIME - FOX ALL ACCESS: Jennifer Morrison Video Interview
Jennifer Morrison has found a great variety of roles throughout her career. Of course, most will remember her from her co-starring role on the FOX medical drama, House. Morrison is now on another hit series, the ABC fantasy drama Once Up on A Time. She also gave a great performance in the film Warrior.
Morrison has been a working actress since 1994, and told us that from a young age, she always considered herself an actress. However, it was not until she worked on her first film (Intersection, which starred Richard Gere, Sharon Stone, and Lolita Davidovich) that she had a major epiphany about acting, which she would carry with her to this day.
A new episode of Once Upon a Time airs Sunday night at 8/7 central on ABC.

A Daily Guide To Notable Shows
... Trek Nation
8-10 PM SCIENCe
The late Gene Roddenberry is rightly revered as a giant of science fiction, and this documentary from his son, Rod, pays hagiographic homage to the Star Trek creator's professional achievements, with help from such talking heads as J.J. Abrams, Ron Moore, and Seth MacFarlane. But Roddenberry Jr. also examines the personal shortcomings of his father, who apparently had a Kirk-esque eye for the ladies. As one family friend reveals, "He bragged to me that within seven days after being married to your mom, he was out messing around." The result is an often fascinating and boldly going look at a clay-footed pop culture icon.
