The 58th Anniversary of Star Trek is beaming down this Sunday, so it is only logical that we should talk about the Final Frontier. What is the Galactic Journey, and should we all hop on for a ride? Why did the studios screw with the broadcast order of the episodes? Is the animated series from the 1970s a hidden gem? Was Rick Berman a good successor to Gene Roddenberry? How has the current Kurtzman era differed from Roddenberry and Berman? Is it better? Is the future of Star Trek bright? Will they bring back Prodigy? Listen to today’s podcast as Mark Baumgarten, Juan Sanmiguel, and Vicky Jakubowski analyze 58 years of Star Trek.
