The channel advertised that the episodes of Star Trek: The Original Series were shown for the first time unedited since their original airing by NBC in the 1960s. This was actually not true, as it was Kaiser Broadcasting (operating a small chain of local television stations along the West, and East Coast) which first aired the series in syndication in 1969, showing it unedited for the last time. (Inside Star Trek: The Real Story, 1997, pp. 417-418) Brief documentary segments featuring William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy were interspersed throughout the episodes' footage.
