Any accident that characters named "Galt" and "Ragnar" appear in this film. Note: No tribbles were harmed in the making of this motion picture. (And Yeoman Rand still looks good!)

    For Star Trek Original Series fans, a new series Star Trek Continues is being produced and distributed online by other fans. They are reproducing the characters of STOS and doing sequels to OS episodes that should have been done by Paramount.
    It is a nostalgic experience if you love STOS.
    (If you don't grok STOS, don't waste your time.)
    They have had quality guest stars from TV:
    Lou Ferigno (The Hulk)
    Michael Forrest (STOS)
    Erin Gray (Buck Rogers in the 25th Century)
    Chris Doohan (son of Jame Doohan, Scotty from STOS)

    Another poster (currently suppressed for excess) recently contributed a thoughtful look at another sci-fi TV offering from the 90's.
    I love Trek, especially the OS, but Babylon 5 is better in many ways. I was put off when I first watched B5 as I had missed earlier episodes and it must be watched from the beginning. Imagine being given a middle chapter of Atlas Shrugged to read out of context. Watching from the beginning will draw you in and hook you as surely as AS does.
    B5 is the best that scifi video has to offer and has complex characters and story that ST lacked.
    The hidden posting from a few days ago "Philosophy from Babylon 5" has lots of links to clips on youtube to whet your appetite and link is here:

    It would be immoral to watch the YouTube video. You need to know the difference between a Half Eagle and a Racketeer Nickel.

      As far as fivedollargold can tell, this video was uploaded by the film's creators. Does this mean they are immoral? BTW. A person can donate any amount at their website if they so choose.

    Thanks for the notice. Looking for this on IMDB, I also found "Star Trek: The Secret Voyage", Star Trek: Borg War, and the voyages of the starship _Farragut_. and still others. Axanar, a short, is to be released next week. I do suggest, however, that this YouTube placement is violation of intellectual property rights. It would be immoral to watch it.
