Star Trek Khan Podcast (Episode 4-6)

Int he first three episodes we saw Khan and his crew's early steps to setting up their colony on Ceti Alpha V, after being stranded there by Captain Kirk during the events of Space Seed. Quite a few of the characters got killed off during these adventures. We still have not seen the destruction of Ceti Alpha VI or the death of Marla McGivers, the Starfleet crew member who stayed behind along side Khan. Three episodes of nine down, three more this week. Just a reminder, there will be spoilers Episode 4 Ceti Eels is the most boring damn name…

Star Trek Khan Podcast (Episode 1-3)

Star Trek has put out an audio drama podcast recently, and since I listen to a lot of Podcasts, it seemed like an easy thing to just add it to my line up. Just a note, for this, I've been jotting down some thoughts as each episode releases, so some earlier speculation may end up being wrong, and it may be right, and potentially a spoiler, except it was just that, speculation. Just a quick bit of background on Khan in the Star Trek universe. Khan appeared in the Original Series episode "Space Seed". The Enterprise crew finds a derelict…

Star Trek TOS – Season 1 – Part 1 – E01-13

So, this one feels slightly tricky. I have been making notes about episodes as I watch them, but also I have been writing up some on a private forum and having some back-and-forth there. Actually, maybe this will make it much easier. Anyway, since Discovery is over, and I am caught up on Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks, I decided to move on to Star Trek, The Original Series (TOS). I really want to rewatch the TNG era stuff, but I am kind of trying to knock out all of the "older era" stuff first. Also, as it turns…

Star Trek – Lower Decks (S1-S4)

So, unlike Discovery, this show is a lot more serialized, which is much more Trek-like honestly. There is some loose callbacks within the seasons, mostly at the end of the seasons, but otherwise, each episode is mostly just its own mission or activity. Or more often, several missions or activities. Unlike most Trek shows, this one follows the "lower decks" crew. As the name would suggest. There is a bridge crew that shows up, but they are not the focus. Instead, it's, all those people running around in the background shots of every episode, doing God knows what, keeping the…

Star Trek Strange New Worlds

Despite that I've been writing about Star Trek Discovery, what really brought me back to Star Trek was Strange New Worlds. I had tried and given up on Discovery several times, not making it past the first episode, and I wasn't hearing much great and Star Trek Picard. I was hearing good things about Strange New Worlds. I know the timelines and continuity is iffy, but it's essentially a prequel series to The Original Series. Something I kind of realized when starting SNW, is that I have never really watched TOS. I have seen episodes here and there for sure,…
