When I started my current job, my boss and one of the older guys there asked me "star trek or star wars" after I mentioned liking sci fi (they preferred the different franchises respectively and were looking for a tiebreaker for their banter or something I guess). Got a laugh out of them by replying with "stargate".
"Star Track or Space Wars... Oh no you misunderstand... The Doc won science fiction in 1954 with Lensman, it was so good that they stopped making Sci-Fi. But I'm sure your things are just fine, I guess." Looks like you missed that opportunity, better luck next time.
So ... does this mean there are other Sci-Fi franchises known as ....
STAR TRES
STAR TRRS
STAR TARK
STAR WARK
STAR WAES
STAR WREK
because according to the clues given and probable answers, these are all correct .... and if you argue between two scifi franchises ... the answers never give as to which of the two they are.

The devious part is Star Wars fans will think "it's a trap" on the down, which makes the best franchise Trek. Very good troll!

Star Trek fans would think "it's a wrap"

Eh "it's a trap" is better known.
I know "that's a wrap" just from random Hollywood stuff to wrap up filming.

BSG would like a word.

Should have thrown others at them like Farscape or Babylon 5.

Thank you, it was bothering me that the creator didn't understand how crosswords work.

This crossword sucks, none of the other answers make any sense if you write in stargate.

I think there’s a mistake with 71 down - you need to add a few spaces and change it to “FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE”.
