Did they just re-release the 50th Anniversary issue and change the cover? That would track content-wise.
Entertainment Weekly’s “The Ultimate Guide to Star Trek” 60th anniversary issue is largely a reprint of their 50th and 55th anniversary issues if the copyright dates in the indicia are any indication, though they definitely made some updates to keep it current by including more recent shows.
Basically. I have a spreadsheet with 1,300 watch items. Here are the first 10:
All Our Yesterdays The Inner Light Time’s Arrow Time’s Arrow, Part II The City on the Edge of Forever Storm Front Storm Front, Part II Little Green Men Far Beyond the Stars Carbon Creek
It’s been a lot of research and adjusting as I go along. Plus a lot of semi-arbitrary choices between Memory Alpha order, Star Trek Chronology order, etc.
If there’s no new Trek, that means watching old Trek, right?
Trying to finish my full in-universe chronological franchise re-watch for the 60th anniversary, which means an average of maybe 75 minutes of watching Trek per day through September 8 if I want to get it to line up. I started back in April 2024, but there’s a lot of Trek out there, and I’m already falling behind. (Ideally it would’ve been 58 minutes per day. This includes watching some episodes multiple times if they take place in multiple time periods.)
For what it’s worth, we’ll arguably get some new Trek soon whenever the “season finale” of Scouts comes out. 😂 Only one episode left if they don’t get renewed.
If memory serves it started great with season 1, got gradually worse through early season 4, made a shocking comeback in terms of quality for the rest of the season, and then took a nose-dive with season 5. I’m curious how that ends up matching up with your viewing.
“All this seems to say that Starfleet Academy is a global hit for Paramount, reaching new demographics and new markets, but not a fit for the Sheridanverse Pro sports streamer Paramount+ was narrowed towards.”
If that’s true, I guess it’s UPN all over again. Starts with Star Trek as the lead only to have it slowly sidelined by a focus on a different audience, including a focus on wrestling. The only way it could be more like UPN is if it was getting ready to merge with a similar-sized service owned by Warner Bros.
Oh dang.
I really liked it.
The Switch version is arguably a step down from the PC version (not sure about other consoles), but both have their distinct charms. Well worth grabbing while you can.
