Science Fiction.
Plot devices such as time travel, disruption of temporal norms, Deus ex machina, suspension of reality, etc. are de rigueur in the genre.
And cheesy? He!! yeah. It's supposed to be. That's all part of the fun.
I bet you agree with those "interviewees" on The Onion site.
You want "reality", watch The History Channel.
(Oh, and "Spock" is a proper name and thus should be capitalized).
