“Star Trek’s” Country Music Awards?

Filed under: TV — Scott King at 11:24 am on Monday, October 29, 2007


I’m sorry, but when did the Country Music Awards join Starfleet? I was watching “Brothers and Sisters” last night (an awesome show and SHAME on you for still not watching it) and there was a commercial for the CMA’s with a massive Starfleet logo in the background.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with “Star Trek,” the logo to the right is the symbol used in the “Star Trek” and the logo to the left is from the CMA’s website. So what’s going on? Is it some joke Trekkies are playing on red necks or what?

What’s odd too is that the actual awards have the same shape.
