Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

The original 1966 series lives on as if it never ended...however the actors are not the same.An amazing attempt to bring a 50 year old TV series back to life! The sets, costumes, and scores match up so well with the old show.Four words: give it a chance! The original 1966 series has been a lifelong partner to me so, at first, "Continues" bothered me because it seemed to be playing around with ideas and plots I had spent decades watching and re-watching. At first, I never liked the "Continues" cast, but after a few episodes I began to warm to them all.I have followed all the 1980s and 1990s film/TV Star Treks, love them all, I also like the new Netflix series, and after all that I think there is just enough room for one more Star Trek series: "Continues".At the time of the this review I really have only one issue with "Continues", the forced attempts at humour between Kirk/Spock/Bones. However, in time maybe even those bits will grow on me???In a nutshell: this will never be as good as the 1966 original, but it makes a pleasing very well thought out copy.

I spotted on this serial only couple months ago, and watched so far only 2 episodes. Indeed, they made it well - it is probably only true follower of (original) TOS. And as I see, Star Trek is probably original serial with most of followers - there is most of serials starting with "Star Trek" . I have strong feeling that it is low on budget, although it is not much visible on screen, but fact that there are only few episodes per year may be indicator. Acting may be not on high level, and actors are really unknown, again, probably because low budget. But it is OK. What matters is story. And it is for sure on level of original series.At moment we have 2 "Star Trek" serials under work and (premiere) airing: this and practically the complete opposite: ... Discovery . While Discovery is high(er) budget, with shiny CGI, lot of action, shooting, it is just not Star Trek. They changed a lot, in not good direction. I stopped to watch it because it is just so shallow. Star Trek Continues goes so far in recreation of original that they even use outdated 4:3 screen format. Effects are not 100% same, but very close to those from some 50 years ago. I will keep watching this. Rating: 8 .

Just watched E10 "To Boldly Go: Part 1" and I can see that the writing, set designs, costumes, sound, photography keeps improving. "Star Trek Continues" is far better than "Star Trek Continues" which has much more money to continue the ST saga. Kudos to these Star Trek fans for keeping it authentic to the TOS used to be!

I'm going to keep this relatively short,I am normally skeptical of amateurly produced star trek or anything for that matter but the attention to detail and the atmosphere created by these episodes is fantastic.I would like to congratulate Vic Mignogna firstly on his wonderful characterisation of James T Kirk and secondly for his dedication to the production (I even noticed his name in the carpentry credits).What has been achieved here by this collective could be the beginning of something bigger than star trek TOS.If the same production values of this series are applied to another franchise then the general public can look forward to limitless episodes of their favourite series regardless of networks,advertising and commercial interests.Anyway,enough gushing,congratulations again to cast and crew and keep up the exceptional work.
