Star Trek gets its first series aimed directly at kids, and us adults absolutely love it. From the music to the character design, we break it all down in the name of our new phaser god Murf. It was incredibly smart to not have Janeway overshadow the new cast in this episode, but ultimately it…

ENT: Babel One, United and The Aenar with Barez and Steph

more -

DS9: What You Leave Behind with Derek, Justin and Katie
We did it, we finally made it to the series finale of Deep Space 9. Netflix lists this as a 9 parter, which is just bonkers, but also illustrates the serialized nature of DS9 compared to other Treks. We are all just so full of emotions from not just the core cast, but the secondary cast as well....
