Enjoy Trekkin’!
It's been 60 years since Star Trek first took us aboard the Enterprise, and we're celebrating the franchise without simply running down a list of every show, movie, captain, and alien we've encountered along the way.
We'll take a look at how that original three-season series grew into a massive universe of television, movies, animation, books, comics, games, toys, conventions, and fandom. From The Original Series and The Animated Series through The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Enterprise, and the modern Trek era, we'll explore just how much Star Trek has changed while still holding onto the ideas that made it special in the first place.
And because 60 years isn't enough, we're looking toward the future and asking the really important question: What could Star Trek look like on its 100th anniversary?
Do you beam aboard? What Star Trek memories do you have? Let us know! First person that emails me with the subject line, “Now that’s bold!” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to EnjoyStuff@RetroZap.com
