I'm back!
It is the holiday season and probably
at some time over the holiday season you are going to curl up of the
couch and stream some TV shows. I wanted to draw your attention to
some unbelievable online shows that fly under the radar but are
totally worth your time. For those Sci Fi fans out there here is my
list of the top 5 Star Trek fan shows worth taking the time to see.
All of these have production qualities fit for being on TV and all of
these you can watch for free on your computer. I've posted the like
for their youtube pages but they can be found in other places on the
internet and each has its own webpage with additional content.
1- Star Trek Phase II
If you watch one fan film in your
entire life make it Star Trek Phase II “World Enough in Time”.
The production quality, the fact that the set is identical to the
original blue-print, the vast number of people that work on the show
that worked on the original, makes this show an unbelievable
experience and honestly better than the original Star Trek.
2- Star Trek: Of Gods and Men
Movie

A film containing so many people
important to the Star Trek universe you loose count after 3 minutes.
This film looks and feels like something Paramount would make. The
new Star Trek movies may have borrowed some of the time travel ideas
from it too.
3- Star Trek Continues
Great fan film featuring plenty of
celebrities. The sets aren't quite as good as Phase II but still
pretty impressive.
4- Starship Farragut
Good set design and good stories.
Includes a cartoon series similar to the old Star Trek cartoon.
5- Star Trek: Intrepid
A more Scottish take on Star Trek. The
production quality is good and the stories are good.
Honorable Mention: Star Trek Hidden Frontier
Producing over 50 original episodes and
includes some unbelievable graphical modeling.The acting at times is not the best, this one really is a fan production, and it uses a lot of green screen.
