Star Trek Continues

An impressive work for a fan film. Duplicates the look of TOS, and an enjoyable story. On of the best fan films I have seen. I Like the fact that they brought back the original actor who played Apollo. The sets had that same cheesy look from the original series, the costumes, sets and spacesuits were dead on. They also used the original cues and soundtracks from TOS. Chris Doohan plays his father's role, as Scottie. Grant Imahara from myth-busters plays Sulu. It looks like a lot of time and effort was put into this film, and for no monetary gain. It would be nice if CBS brought this to regular TV again. There are few good SciFi shows on TV. Most shows billing themselves as scifi are actually Fantasy.

When I first heard about this show, I figured I'd give it a try. What I saw was like going back in time. I'm not a big fan of fan made trek shows, but I loved what I saw. Bringing back Micheal Forest to play Apollo was brilliant. The episode kept me intrigued throughout. Vic Mignogna looks so much like a young Shatner. The acting was very good. I don't usually write a review after one episode, but felt I had to. The show was made from 2013-2017, so I thought they had a lot of episodes, but alas, only 11. Too bad, I could've had many to watch. But I love this show. Thank you to those who made it😄.

Me being a Trek fan since the late 60's, I was surprised that I had never heard of this but Was blown away at how good this was and true to the spirit of the Original series. Great scripts and Damn good Actors in this rolls made famous 55 years ago. Stand out here is the Actress who plays the ships Counselor Michele. Specht.

The show does exactly what it set out to do -- recreate the look and feel of the original Star Trek. There are obviously those who will be unable to get past the different actors in the same roles (even more so than with the JJ Abrams films, because the films move in a completely different direction. And therein lies the strength and weakness of this production: the fans.

For this fan, the show was a joy to watch. I don't want to see a parody of James Shatner and the original crew, but rather another take on the same characters. Some are more successful than others, but overall (and especially for a first episode) they did a great job. Heck, go back to the early Next Generation episodes and see how cardboard-thin some of the characters were and how stiff some of the acting ones. OK, so Riker was stiff throughout the season…but I digress.

The more versions of Start Trek there are, the more splintered the fan base will be. Some purists loathe the new films with their blockbuster dependence on CGI, quick cuts and explosions. Some who were raised on Next Generation think everything else inferior. Personally I couldn't stand Voyager. So, watch the episode and decide for yourself.

When a fan series does a franchise justice better than its owner you know that's bad.

Star Trek Continues is done by professional actors and voice actors who are sincere fans of Star Trek.

The series takes places following the storyline of the original series with original stories and characters along with paying homage to the original series

The sets look like it did in the original 1966 series along with giving the series a feel of watching the original Star Trek series.

The acting is very strong as the cast do a convincing job as the characters the fans have love throughout the years.

The music is very good as it helps move the series.

Overall out of all the fan series of Star Trek this one has done it right
