For most Trekkies, classic “Star Trek” begins and ends with the eclectic crew of “Star Trek: The Original Series.”
NBC’s pioneering sci-fi show ran from 1966 to 1969. But its essence continued in 1973’s “Star Trek: The Animated Series” and ran through a half-dozen “Star Trek” big-screen feature films, which rolled out in theaters between 1979 and 1991.
The iconic series — which broke many boundaries involving race, sex, politics and religion — has had a tremendous resurgence lately, in the form of IDW Publishing’s “Star Trek” comic books, Paramount+ offerings such as “Star Trek: Discovery,” “Star Trek: Picard,” and “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds,” in addition to animated fare including “Star Trek: Prodigy,” “Star Trek: Lower Decks,” and bite-sized “Short Treks.” And don’t forget the dynamic new gaming options like “Star Trek: Resurgence!”
