While we’re winding up our trip through TAS, let’s also watch the episodes of the fan series Star Trek Continues. This series was inspired by Star Trek Phase II, but aims for an aesthetic more true to the classic series, while employing all professional actors and a professional crew.  Check out this 3-minute vignette as an appetizer! I love it. There are two other vignettes available on the series website: http://www.startrekcontinues.com/

I would like to take next Wednesday off, because I’ll be off visiting family. Here is a schedule for posting reaction threads for the 3 full-length episodes that have been released so far:

Wednesday, August 20: E01 — “Pilgrim of Eternity”

Wednesday, August 27: E02 — “Lolani”

Wednesday, September 3: E03 — “Fairest of Them All”

Recall that we are finishing TAS on August 25. I reckon we will be able to move on to Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) during the second week of September, and we can cover one film per week through the end of September. What do you think is the best day of the week to post the films?
