Submission + - William Shatner Hasn't Earned Any Money From Star Trek Reruns (foxnews.com)

Submitted by Anonymous Coward
An anonymous reader writes: William Shatner hasn't earned "a penny" from reruns of the original Star Trek.

In an interview with The Telegraph, Shatner stated "the concept of syndication only came in after 'Star Trek' was canceled when someone from the unions said: 'Wait a minute, you're replaying all those films, those shows".

There was a strike, and ultimately the unions secured residual fees after 'Star Trek' ended and Shatner didn't receive any benefit. Shatner has been outspoken about the issue and stated "Anything before 1973 (that includes Star Trek Original Series) doesn’t pay a cent in Royalties".
