Podcast # 644 – “Star Trek: The Animated Series” – 1707.30

This week I’m back doing a podcast after being gone for a few weeks.  I talk about the new “Valerian” film, all the stuff that we saw at San Diego Comic Con online last weekend, and the main topic talking about the Animated Trek series.  I cover some recent other films I’ve seen and give my comments on the trailers, the “Star Trek: Discovery” news and other things we learned from last weekend’s Comic Con.  Then it’s on to the main topic.

The animated Trek series holds a special place for me as it was really the first “new” Trek I saw back in the day when it was airing after watching TOS reruns for a few years.  This was the first taste of new Trek and it had just about all the talent, actors, writers, and so on that the original series had going for it.  There are some real gems in the short 22 episode, two season run.  I give some background and talk about some of the behind the scenes stuff along with playing some audio clips too.  I hope you enjoy this look back at this important piece of Trek history.

That’s about it for this week.  Next week there will be a guest cast for you and until next time take care and enjoy your week.
