Norway Corporation - After Star Trek

After Star Trek

Roddenberry created several other science-fiction television series concepts, often produced through Norway Corporation. Five of these concepts had pilot films produced; none, however, were picked up for series production. These pilots were:

  • The Questor Tapes, which starred Robert Foxworth alongside Mike Farrell,
  • Genesis II, which starred Alex Cord and Mariette Hartley,
  • Planet Earth, which starred John Saxon alongside Janet Margolin with Ted Cassidy, and Diana Muldaur,
  • Strange New World, and
  • The made-for-television film Spectre, which was to be a backdoor pilot.

Of the five, Genesis II, Planet Earth, and Spectre were credited as being produced by Norway Corporation.

Some sources have credited Norway Corporation as having produced Star Trek: The Motion Picture and Star Trek: The Next Generation. Although Roddenberry served as Executive Producer on both the film and series, there is no evidence that he did so using Norway Corporation as his production company.
