I heard about this haven't gotten around to it. Looks like they're trying to ignite a new series. It just the 2 I mention have a couple of the tos original cast and some cast from other ST series. Nostalgia time. I mean who didn't love Tuvok.

You can watch this on you tube, it's a follow up to the episode mirror mirror. Christopher Doohan (Son of actor James Doohan) does a great Scotty. Check it out

The reviews for Star Trek Renegades web-series are not good at all...One Critic said it's "Shit"...

I enjoyed of gods and men. It was Star Trek corny but so nostalgic I nuzzled right in. Though i havent seen it yet I understand renegade is the beginnings for a new web series and the movie is the pilot. Hope they work out the glitches. I'm getting to the other web series but I was so excited at the prospect of seeing ST alumni I had to get to that first.

OK now you need to watch "Fairest of them all", it's only 40 minutes

I will.

The original “Star Trek” franchise has inspired countless fan-made films over its nearly 50 years, but a new amateur production in the works titled “Star Trek: Axanar” represents a warp-drive leap from its predecessors — the movie has raised $1.13 million in crowdfunding so far, making it one of the highest-financed fan films ever made.

Originally seeking just $100,000 from a Kickstarter campaign, “Axanar’s” producers eventually generated nearly seven times that, raising more than $638,000. On Indiegogo, the crew made 189 percent of their target sum.

They’ve since budgeted the feature film, which will be broken into four installments, at a total of $960,000, or $240,000 per episode. The seven-figure bankroll raises questions about just how “fan” the project is and at what point it poses a threat to the authorized franchise.

“It’s not a traditional fan film, and doesn’t have those limitations with it,” executive producer Alec Peters told TheWrap, justifying “Axanar’s” relatively sizable budget. “Although we fall under the fan movie, we’ve tried to make the product as good as coming out of the studio.”

“CBS has a long history of accepting fan films,” Peters said. “I think ‘Axanar’ has become so popular that CBS realizes that we’re just making their brand that much better.” Previous Kickstarter- and Indiegogo-funded fan films include “Star Trek: Of Gods and Men,” which generated $150,000 in donations in 2006 and “Star Trek: Renegades,” which drew a collective $375,000 from both platforms in 2014. “Axanar” has generated more than twice those productions combined, allowing Peters’ team to lease a warehouse in Valencia, California, for three years and build a set to make their movie “as compelling as the studio films.” CBS and Paramount’s habit of looking the other way on fan films runs counter to the policy pursued by 20th Century Fox just last month when it shut down a project based on the “Alien” franchise. According to Digital Spy, the homegrown production had cast Carrie Henn, who starred in the 1986 film “Aliens.” One reason why CBS and Paramount aren’t cracking down on “Axanar” may be that that Peters claims to be limiting the use of “Star Trek” logos and likenesses and using only three protected characters, all relatively obscure: Garth of Izar from the original “Star Trek” TV series, the Vulcan from “Star Trek: Enterprise” and General Chang from the film “Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.” - See more at: https://www.thewrap.com/h...VwZgc.dpuf

Didn't know all this Star Trek stuff was going on. ST will never die! I'm still waiting for a show where the Enterprise "wormholes" it's way into the Star Wars universe.

I've only seen one episode but I like it.

Only 3 episodes with this cast. Did you see Fairest of them all??

I love Star Trek Continues! I am also fond of some of the Star Trek: New Voyages episodes. I think this is the best of the lot. It has George Takei as a guest star:

Oh wow only 3? I think I ended up watching episode2. The guy who plays Kirk completely reminds me of Kirk.

Star Trek continues has episode 4 out now and episode 5 will be out 9/24/15. Hope they make more. They really captured the feel of the original series.

The actress who played Lolani in Star Trek continues really did a good job, very good story

And yes that is Lou Ferrigno playing yet another green guy

It's on youtube now. R.I.P Yeoman Rand (tribute for her in the intro)

OK just watched Renagades

The Pro's

Production Value is way better now than that of Gods and men. Everything from quality, CGI, Lighting, editing, music,.

Liked Tuvok and Chekov

Con's

Ok, story was boring. Didn't really care for the cast of the Renagades. Lexxa was very uninteresting and didn't care about her mom dying as a kid.

Icheb from Voyager was interesting and so was Gary Graham (Alien Nation as well as from star trek enterprise playing Vulcan Soval). Vic Mignogna (Capt. Kirk from Star Trek Continues) was good in it as Cardassian Garis but then they killed him off. The rest not so much. Ronora was pretty to look at though.

Needed more Tuvok and the Doctor in it. Honestly they should try to get as many former Star Trek cast memebers in it like they did with Of Gods and men. Of Gods and Men would have been so much better if the production value was better. Looked like college kids working on their first movie

Hated the sets for Star Fleet HQ, whats with all the orange. Hated the uniforms as well. It had the look of the original series though it should have looked more like Voyager.
