Back in 2006 there was a new show on TV which was good (which means that it was cancelled - HA!), called Jericho.  It was an action, mystery, drama type of show where a number of nuclear devices were detonated (simultaneously I think) throughout the continental US. Since the seat of government, DC, was destroyed there was some understandable chaos.  What emerged were the Allied States

Seems like the whole Paramount/CBS Lawsuit vs. Axanar is having additional ripple effects (at least that's my take on it). Along with the two cancelled fan productions I mentioned last week, Star Trek Renegades posted to the Kickstarter announcements yesterday some bittersweet news.  First, they will be making both episode 2 and episode 3 (now called Part I and II of the episode), even

Sometimes with fan productions you don't know if (and when) they run out of steam and something never materializes.  I had put Star Trek Horizon on the back burner (not sure if it had lost steam), but they recently released a full length trailer which looks pretty amazing!

I actually have not seen the finished episode yet.  I was a backer of the project so I got a link to

It's been a while since I started watching fan-made series, so I decided to write a few quick words on some of the fan-made Star Trek series I've been watching. Dark Armada This is a Dutch series as far as I can tell.  The whole series is a set of mini episodes that all together tally up to the length of one regular television episode.  At the end you have a cliffhanger: a dark armada

I've been going through all of the Star Trek series on Netflix and on Amazon Prime, going through and re-watching (and sometimes watching for the first time) episodes that I had seen a long time ago. Recently I finished the Original Series (wow...it was more campy that I originally remembered!), and all of the original cast movies.  Before I moved on the the Next Generation I decided to go and
