STAR TREK CONTINUES RATINGS
I consider this the s.4 TOS deserved
Honestly this show has left me SPECHLESS. To think that a lot of people and even Trekkies will never know this show even exists is a tragedy. Not only these guys managed to create an amazing continuation and conclusion for TOS, but also an excellent and superbly written show in it's own right. Usually i don't bother with fan made productions, because despite good intentions they lack the skill and budget to satisfy, but not this show. Everyone did their jobs unexpectedly well, especially V.Mignogna. I can't praise enough what a great job this man has done here. Not only he channeled Shatner's performance and personality perfectly, but he even gave his own spin on Kirk, honestly I didn't miss Shatner for a second. He even produced and directed some episodes. The rest of the cast were also good after they got used to their parts, even T.Haberkorn, who had the nearly impossible task to fill L.Nimoy shoes. The sets and special effects are groundbreaking for fan made productions and extremely faithful to the TOS, the same goes for the writing. Most of the stories are excellent, both the ones who act as sequels to TOS eps and the new ones. The writers did a great job with the characters, especially with Kirk and Spock, with whom they finally adressed how much his experience in the Enterprise has affected him. I have to talk separately about the two-parter series finale, TOS could not have wished for a better end. Taking the characters back when everything started, adding high stakes, a sense of epicness, some former enemies turned "allies", an emotionally captivating climax and tie it all up with ST:TMP, I really can't imagine what else could anyone want. Definitely among the greatest Star Trek episodes ever made, BRAVOOO!!!
Overall rating: 9.2/10
