    NBC ordered 16 episodes of Star Trek, besides "Where No Man Has Gone Before".

    [17] The
    first regular episode of Star Trek, The Man Trap,[22] aired on Thursday, September 8, 1966
    from 8:309:30 as part of an NBC "sneak preview" block. Reviews were mixed; while The
    Philadelphia Inquirer and San Francisco Chronicle liked the new show, The New York Times
    and The Boston Globe were less favorable,[23] and Variety predicted that it "won't work",
    calling it "an incredible and dreary mess of confusion and complexities".[24] Debuting against
    mostly reruns, Star Trek easily won its time slot with a 40.6 share.[25] The following week
    against all-new programming, however, the show fell to second (29.4 share) behind CBS. It
    ranked 33rd (out of 94 programs) over the next two weeks, then the following two episodes
    ranked 51st in the ratings.[26][27]
