“Earth Star Voyager” (1988), a Disney series from 1988 made right after TNG became a hit, that never went to series. They aired the pilot episode as a “Disney Movie of the Week.” It was a series about an exploration vessel, mostly manned by handsome and extremely marketable young people (due to the length of the voyage). Disney has never released Earth Star Voyager on DVD, and it is, presently, not available for streaming anywhere. I hope the future Disney streaming service corrects this and features little oddities like this.It would have been very interesting if this ever went to series. As it is, it remains one of the more interesting what-if pilots that never got made, along with City Beneath the Sea, Gene Roddenberry’s Planet Earth and Questor Tapes (a show about an android searching for his creator), and the 60s Wonder Woman pilot that had the cavegirl actress Nova from Planet of the Apes. -- source link
