Yep. He duped Fox into paying him for a Sci-Fi comedy show and then he went and made a loving homage to Trek.
My theory for the behind the scenes:
McFarland: I would like to make a star trek parody!
Fox: oh sounds awesome, lots of funny jokes and stuff. Should be funny.
M: yes haha, funny.
F: yes... Anyway here's the money
Making episode one
M: I gotta make sure there's loads of jokes so I can show this to execs and they see the haha bits
Making episode 3
M: okay I think they're gone... Time to just literally make normal star trek episodes
making the last episode of s1
F: hey I see you're almost done with the first season so I'm just checking in that the show is still funny
M: quickly adding in as many jokes as the last second as possible haha yes humor! Jokes! Plenty of them! Haha yes
