Since someone has mentioned “New Voyages/Phase 2”, it seems only fair to mention the “competition”, “Star Trek Continues”.
Resulting from a schism in the fan film community, STC has made three episodes so far, which are quite good. Me, I don’t count myself as a member of either “team James” or “team Vic” but enjoy both efforts and hop they each spur the other to better results.
BTW, STC has James Doohan’s son playing Scotty and it’s pretty freaky.
I’m working my way through DS9 on Netflix myself. I saw all of TOS and TNG but somehow dropped off watching it during DS9 and after though I’ve seen eps here and there.
I can’t believe Paramount wouldn’t think this is a good idea. If they can make a decent show, they will make money. Seems simple to me. They would even have the ability to do any time between Enterprise and Voyager and could even stretch past Voyager’s timeline a bit now. Think about that positive and exploring the unknown kind of ideal that TNG had but write it with modern audiences in mind. Stories don’t have to be episodic, character arcs, longer resolutions to stories, and deeper drama can be incorporated. They could even build it where there is this split between what happens on the bridge and what happens on the lower decks, like how BSG had different things going on in different parts of the Galactica. I would imagine that effects can be cheaper and easier now, so that would help too.
They could even do it animated and I would think they would get viewers.
Thanks, I was unaware, something to watch tonight 
I love reviewing the series.

Their last 2 Voyager and Enterprise didn’t get the greatest reception, perhaps that is why they didn’t continue. Many didn’t like Voyager, though I really enjoyed it, perhaps personal inflection feeling far from home and a long, almost impossible way to get back, influenced that, actually I knew it did. Enterprise I get into later when it was on Netflix and It was a great watch. But at the time of the release I just could not get into it.
Star Trek: Mirror Universe.
Conquer & oppress the galaxy.
Like this?
I believe that folks who do not like Admiral Janeway have issues with their Mothers. :dubious:
It was called Starship Troopers, and it was an awesome deconstruction of Star Trek.
I need my pain.
Or we all have issues with YOUR mother. :dubious:
That’s ridiculous, and like the cries of sexism for not liking the show. The writers were obsessed with thinking that she had to be perfect to be acceptable as a female captain. Her flaws weren’t flaws within the universe, despite the fact that it what got them trapped in the first place her inability to either follow the Prime Directive or at least think of load a shuttlecraft up with bombs or beam them on board with a delay. And then the fact that her personality changed as needed by the plot wasn’t helpful, either.
It was only when she became a mother figure to Seven of Nine that she became interesting–albeit as a foil to a better written and acted character.
I rest my case.
Manny Coto’s version of ENT was getting pretty good. Some of the back story explanation eps were a little over the top but even those were mostly ENTertaining. Ymmv,of course
They should do “All Kirk’s Children” where two aliens from opposite ends of the galaxy meet for battle only to discover they have the same father. You know who. This sets them on a journey across the stars looking for their missing siblings.
Hate Is Enough
It’s been done.
Kes was much more her child much more then Seven ever was
I didn’t even start watching Trek until I was in college (2008). Before that I thought it was dumb and I wouldn’t like it. I saw a bunch back then when you could watch every episode on the CBS websight.
First I watched the original and liked that and thought I wouldn’t like TNG because it’s different. Then I started watching TNG too (it was on Scifi channel back then). Then I didn’t watch DS9 because I thought it would be dumb
Last year I watched all of TNG, DS9, and VOyager on netflix. I liked them
Now I’m trying to watch Enterprise on NEtflix but it’s taking a long time (because it’s lame)
I watched all the movies in college too. I actually watched First Contact before I saw the tv show
the JJ Abrams movies are bad. casual star trek fans like them
so for all of my star trek viewing life, star trek has been over
that’s my star trek story
I’m not interested in a story in the reboot universe.
Exactly.
It comes from writing fan-fic.
Wasting time with, “Oh, look, a sehlat! Oh, look nicitating eyelids!”
I have not figured out why the author wastes time or pages on something that has nothing to do with the plot.
Perhaps he or she is showing off, or perhaps he wants the reader to think, “OH, I know what that is! The author and I are so cool!”
