Star Trek: Odyssey

The acting and script are really quite dire. The storyline is OK.

As it is fan produced the amateur props and sets can be accepted with understanding.

However, simply because there is a Trek crew homosexual couple shouldn't mean that they are joined at the hip. Each time you see them they are together and they are effectively treated like a pair and not two separate crew members. In reality their domestic situation would have to be totally immaterial and not affect their worklife. The idea of having a married couple in the crew could have been far better.

So if we look at the acting it's a case of what acting ? It is as tho the 'actors' are reading the script as tho it is a shopping list.

So there we have it. It's dire. Sorry. 3 out of 10 for trying.

I have seen several fandom Star Trek efforts, and so far, this has to be my favorite. Those I agree with the previous review that a lot of the dialog and acting is sub-par, I have to give the writers huge props for combining elements of TOS, DS9, and STV into a coherent story line. I enjoy what they are trying to do - and as the series progresses, they seem to be getting their legs under them. I hope they keep going - I love the story line. The sets are fine, the CGI is really quite good, the ensemble gets better. They have also created a new culture, a new enemy. There are some really nice creative elements, many unanswered questions, and they seem to give you a few more insights into the alien cultures as time goes on. Bravo for keeping the dream alive.
