Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Leonard Nimoy (Spock) and James Doohan (Scotty) are the only actors to appear in all 22 episodes of the series. However, one of the episodes did not feature Scotty, although James Doohan did voice three other characters in the episode. Thus, Leonard Nimoy is the only actor to play his original series character in every episode. The episode in question was "Star Trek: The Slaver Weapon (#1.14)" (1973), ironically the only episode William Shatner or his character Captain Kirk doesn't appear. more

It should have been canon, 8 January 2003
Author: Shmuel from Israel

Well, I really must disagree with the Late Great Bird of the Galaxy (*). He said that this series should not be canon, but I think it should.

The stories were good, including many of the original writers, and even a story by Hugo/Nebula award winner, Larry Niven. The animation was - well - let's say Disney animation tastes like a fine, high quality, Austrian cake, and ST's animation tastes like cardboard.

If you are a ST-TOS fan, well, get every single episode here.

If you are a ST-TNG+ fan, try one out, preferably Yesteryear, or More Tribbles, and then decide if you want to see more. There are some silly ones.

** out of *****

(*) This is Gene Roddenberry, for the uninitiated
