  The Guest Star
When a star explodes as a supernova, material is flung out at high speeds in all directions, and this material emits enormous amounts of radiation over a wide range of frequencies, including x-rays, gamma rays, and so on.
For a few weeks the "guest star" (as they called it) in the constellation Taurus was the brightest star in the sky, and was even visible in the daytime.
It's remarkable that the energy emitted by a star going supernova is comparable to all the energy that it emitted during millions or even billions of years of stable evolution.

 Guest Star, Alaska Science Forum
The description of the "guest star" or supernova of A.D. 185 as it appeared in the chronicles of the later Han Dynasty.
These important data indicated quite clearly that the stars were fixed rigidly in position relative to one another, as expected and totally in accord with the ideas developed by ancient Sumerians and Greeks, who believed that the stars of the sky are indelibly inscribed on a stellar "firmament".
The supernova of 1987 reached approximately the brightness of the dimmest star in the Big Dipper constellation; it certainly can't rival the great stellar event of 1006, which was as bright as Venus and could be seen at mid-day.

If one carefully examines the prognostications concerning the emperor, the interpretation is as follows: The fact that the guest star does not trespass against Pi and its brightness is full means that there is a person of great worth.

 Movie Star Guest Stars
The stars of radio were mostly eager to start television versions of their radio hits, but the major film studios held out for as long as they could, refusing to produce programs or even release decent movies to the networks until well into the Sixties.
Film stars believed that television was too up close and personal, that it would tarnish their finely-honed images and crack the thin veneer of stardom.
Tallulah Bankhead starred in her own TV series, the All-Star Revue from 1952 - 53 and made a flurry of guest appearances on variety shows and specials spoofing her "Daaaahhhhling" image throughout the Fifties until failing health (and severe alchoholism) forced her to cut back.

Although there appears to be little downside to star appearances, executives want them to make sense and not be "stunting just for the sake of stunting," as ABC drama chief Thom Sherman puts it.

 Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - Star Wars Holiday Special
The guest stars fill in the gaps between Wookiee conversations with short comedy sketches and musical numbers.
Harvey Korman is the guest star most often on screen, with a faintly-amusing Galactic Julia Childs impression, an appearance as an alien on Tatooine who is smitten with the Bea Arthur barkeep character (again, this is fantasy), and a terminally unfunny "instruction video" bit that involves repeated video editing.
The most offensive guest star, however, is the rank sentiment that pervades every scene.

 Star Trek - A Short History
Ironically, the original "Star Trek" was discarded after criticism for attracting the wrong demographics while STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION has remained the number one hour-long series among the prized demographic groups of men, ages 18 - 49 and 18 - 34.
While "Star Trek" launched the birth of fans known as "Trekkies," in 1987, STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION was soon embraced by a new legion of fans known as "Trekkers." The circulation of the fan club news magazine soared from 25,000 copies to its current 105,000.
STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION is produced by Paramount Network Television and distributed by Paramount Domestic Television.

All I know is as with many people, STAR TREK was very, very good to me and I like to think I was good for it.
