According to Variety, Mel Harris, the exec who was an innovator in firstrun syndication and the homevideo biz during his 25-year run in the top ranks at Paramount and Sony Pictures Entertainment, died of cancer Saturday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. He was 65. Harris was known as a champion of new technologies and new markets in a biz that has often been slow to embrace change. He helped modernize the firstrun syndie biz by harnessing satellite distribution to deliver "Entertainment Tonight" to affiliates on a timely basis, and he spearheaded the studio's 1987 revival of Star Trek in the form of The Next Generation, a high-end syndie production.

The characters in these movie posters have a little (PhotoShopped) Starfleet logo in their eyes, including Nero (see photo enlargement below).
