Week 14

This week, I watched several episodes of Star Trek: The Animated Series. It's pretty awesome to see new Trek, especially new Trek with Shatner, Nimoy, Kelley and the others. The only one missing is Chekov, but that is a small price to pay. The other main difference, aside from the animated aspect, is that the episodes are only half an hour now. And it shows. Some episodes move along at a breakneck pace, as if they took a script written for TOS and stuffed it into a half hour. The first episode also suffered from stiff voice acting. Uhura and Kirk were the biggest offenders. They sounded like they were just reading sentences from a newspaper. This improved in the next episode and finally I think they became comfortable with the voice acting in the third episode. Overall, this is true Star Trek, not to be missed by any fan of TOS.
