- CreatorGene RoddenberryStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyIn the 23rd Century, Captain James T. Kirk and the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise explore the galaxy and defend the United Federation of Planets.Or how it has been called Star Trek: The Original Series since. The very series that kick started the whole thing.
- CreatorGene RoddenberryStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyThe further adventures of Captain James T. Kirk and the crew of the USS Enterprise, as they explore the galaxy and defend the United Federation of Planets.A continuation of the Original Series, which ended after three seasons. This continues the Enterprise's five-year mission.
- DirectorRobert WiseStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyWhen an alien spacecraft of enormous power is spotted approaching Earth, Admiral James T. Kirk resumes command of the overhauled USS Enterprise in order to intercept it.Not always well-received (from even sections of the cast), but the first time Star Trek headed for the big screen proper.
- DirectorNicholas MeyerStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyWith the assistance of the Enterprise crew, Admiral Kirk must stop an old nemesis, Khan Noonien Singh, from using the life-generating Genesis Device as the ultimate weapon.It has been consistently ranked as probably the best of the Star Trek movies, with only Star Trek: First Contact giving a run for the money (with that featuring Star Trek: The Next Generation cast).
There is a reason why Khan Noonien Singh has been consistently ranked at the very top of Star Trek hall of villainy. He first showed up on the Original Series episode 'Space Seed', and so this is a sequel to that. - DirectorLeonard NimoyStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyAdmiral Kirk and his bridge crew risk their careers stealing the decommissioned U.S.S. Enterprise to return to the restricted Genesis Planet to recover Spock's body.A poignant movie in all accounts, with the title saying it all.
- DirectorLeonard NimoyStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyTo save Earth from an alien probe, Admiral James T. Kirk and his fugitive crew go back in time to San Francisco in 1986 to retrieve the only beings who can communicate with it: humpback whales.The Star Trek movie with an important message, and it has to do with whales. But still, who says Star Trek don't do comedy?
And this is the second of the two movies (after Star Trek III: The Search for Spock) directed by cast member Leonard Nimoy himself. - DirectorWilliam ShatnerStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyCaptain Kirk and his crew must deal with Mr. Spock's long-lost half-brother who hijacks the Enterprise for an obsessive search for God at the center of the galaxy.The one that is directed by Captain Kirk himself, William Shatner. Though it has been not well-received since.
- DirectorNicholas MeyerStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyOn the eve of retirement, Kirk and McCoy are charged with assassinating the Klingon High Chancellor and imprisoned. The Enterprise crew must help them escape to thwart a conspiracy aimed at sabotaging the last best hope for peace.Mirroring what had been happening in the real world with the collapse of the Soviet Union at the time, this is Star Trek's take, but in space (with the Klingons taking on the role). Also the last time where the entire cast from the Original Series featured together.
- CreatorGene RoddenberryStarsPatrick StewartBrent SpinerJonathan FrakesSet almost 100 years after Captain Kirk's 5-year mission, a new generation of Starfleet officers sets off in the U.S.S. Enterprise-D on its own mission to go where no one has gone before.A new Star Trek television series with a whole new set of cast and a newer version of the Enterprise, and it has been consistently highly rated for the stories. Way before Sir Patrick Stewart is Professor X (it's an X-Men reference).
- DirectorDonald R. BeckStarsJonathan FrakesPatrick StewartDenise CrosbyYour destination: the 24th century. Your mission: to voyage where few have gone before--behind the scenes of Star Trek: The Next Generation! Join Jonathan Frakes, Next Generation's Commander William Riker, for this fascinating chronicle of Gene Roddenberry's beloved, Emmy Award-winning series. You'll explore the Enterprise, meet the show's stars (and some villainous guest stars), learn special-effects secrets and makeup magic, and finally get the answer to that nagging question, "Where is the bathroom on the Enterprise?" Other highlights include a visit to a Star Trek convention, and a stop at the scoring stage to watch Marina Sirtis (Lt. Commander Deanna Troi) lead the orchestra in a recording session. This program concludes with a special look at the series' thrilling final episode ("All Good Things . . .") and a sneak peak at the crew's movie debut, Star Trek: Generations. So set a course for an adventure like no other.Consider this the making of the entire television series, and also a sneak peek of the movie featuring the cast in Star Trek: Generations.
- DirectorDavid CarsonStarsPatrick StewartWilliam ShatnerMalcolm McDowellWith the help of long presumed dead Captain Kirk, Captain Picard must stop a deranged scientist willing to murder on a planetary scale in order to enter a space matrix.Passing from one baton to another, when two Enterprise captains come together in one movie.
- DirectorJonathan FrakesStarsPatrick StewartJonathan FrakesBrent SpinerThe Borg travel back in time intent on preventing Earth's first contact with an alien species. Captain Picard and his crew pursue them to ensure that Zefram Cochrane makes his maiden flight reaching warp speed.Consistently ranked the best movie featuring Star Trek: The Next Generation cast, directed by cast member Jonathan Frakes (aka Commander Riker, or also known as Number One). Time travel, the Borg, Zefram Cochrane!
- DirectorJonathan FrakesStarsPatrick StewartJonathan FrakesBrent SpinerWhen the crew of the Enterprise learn of a Federation conspiracy against the inhabitants of a unique planet, Captain Picard begins an open rebellion.Also directed by Jonathan Frakes, but this was not that well-received though.
- CreatorRick BermanMichael PillerStarsAvery BrooksRene AuberjonoisCirroc LoftonIn the vicinity of the liberated planet of Bajor, the Federation space station Deep Space Nine guards the opening of a stable wormhole to the far side of the galaxy.The only time a Star Trek television series where the protagonist is not a starship, but at a starbase (or space station for the non-Trekkies).
It is not always hunky dory where Deep Space Nine is concerned and often being viewed as being furthest away of what Star Trek is all about, but it has since come to be remembered for Dominion War arc in the penultimate season, the first time it had been attempted on television in the history of the franchise. - CreatorRick BermanMichael PillerJeri TaylorStarsKate MulgrewRobert BeltranRoxann DawsonPulled to the far side of the galaxy, where the Federation is seventy-five years away at maximum warp speed, a Starfleet ship must cooperate with Maquis rebels to find a way home.What happens when a starship is flung to the other side of the galaxy? Unfortunately, that was what the Voyager came to find itself on the premiere. And the series's premise, getting the Voyager home.
And oh, the only Star Trek series where the captain is a female. Maybe as a female fan, that feels different, in a nice way. - DirectorStuart BairdStarsPatrick StewartJonathan FrakesBrent SpinerThe Enterprise is diverted to the Romulan homeworld Romulus, supposedly because they want to negotiate a peace treaty. Captain Picard and his crew discover a serious threat to the Federation once Praetor Shinzon plans to attack Earth.The last of the Star Trek movies, before the J.J. Abrams movies reboot era. The Romulans featured quite a lot in this, and though it is not well-remembered even by movie critics, there is Tom Hardy!
- CreatorRick BermanBrannon BragaStarsScott BakulaJohn BillingsleyJolene BlalockA century before Captain Kirk's five-year mission, Jonathan Archer captains the United Earth ship Enterprise during the early years of Starfleet, leading up to the Earth-Romulan War and the formation of the Federation.It may not be everyone's favourite, but chronologically, this is the prequel to the other Star Trek television series and movies that came before, because this is a look at pre-Federation era and the moments that led to the founding of the United Federation of Planets, and the very first starship to (literally) go boldly where no one else had gone before. The very first version of the Enterprise to do that, with its crew the true pioneers to those that came after them.
So that means, a lot of first contact situations, the origins of the alien species we have come to see in the other series and movies, the origins of the red alert that is synonymous with subsequent starships whenever it is being used, and the origins of what led to the implementation of the Prime Directive.
The theme song might had been a controversial choice for many Trekkies, but I have a controversial opinion about it. It sounds like a cover to Rod Stewart's 'Faith of the Heart', and I should know, because it was my secondary school's graduation song! The song that was used at the graduation ceremony then. And I actually like the song no matter what. - DirectorJ.J. AbramsStarsChris PineZachary QuintoSimon PeggThe brash James T. Kirk tries to live up to his father's legacy with Mr. Spock keeping him in check as a vengeful Romulan from the future creates black holes to destroy the Federation one planet at a time.J.J. Abrams, of Alias and Lost fame, the person responsible for the reboot era, bringing the franchise into the current times for a new set of audience, while also making call-backs to the Original Series. Just look at the main cast’s character names. Erm, hello!
- DirectorJ.J. AbramsStarsChris PineZachary QuintoZoe SaldanaAfter the crew of the Enterprise find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one-man weapon of mass destruction.The sequel to the reboot movie, and a familar face is back. And it is (spoiler!) Khan, with Benedict Cumberbatch in that role.
- DirectorJustin LinStarsChris PineZachary QuintoKarl UrbanThe crew of the USS Enterprise explores the furthest reaches of uncharted space, where they encounter a new ruthless enemy, who puts them, and everything the Federation stands for, to the test.While a fourth movie has been rumoured to be in the works, but until then, this is the third of the movies in the reboot era. And it does make explicit indirect references back to Star Trek: Enterprise. And watch out for Idris Elba (who is unrecognisable).
- DirectorAdam NimoyStarsKarl UrbanZoe SaldanaChris PineAn examination of the enduring appeal of Leonard Nimoy and his portrayal of Spock in Star Trek (1966).Directed by Adam Nimoy, who is also the son of Leonard Nimoy (aka Spock), the documentary film which was originally supposed to be about him examining the role that made his father famous in Star Trek, to how it also includes the late actor's own life after Nimoy senior's passing in 2016.
With also insights from those who used to work alongside Leonard Nimoy from the days of Star Trek: The Original Series, and the J.J. Abrams movies reboot era. - CreatorKirsten BeyerMichael ChabonAkiva GoldsmanStarsPatrick StewartMichelle HurdJeri RyanFollow-up series to Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987) and Star Trek: Nemesis (2002) that centers on Jean-Luc Picard in the next chapter of his life.Almost two decades after Star Trek: Nemesis, what has the former captain of the Enterprise D in Jean-Luc Picard being up to? Each season, with three seasons in all, dealt with a different theme.
While watching Star Trek: The Next Generation is a good starter, Star Trek: Voyager is also another solid ground to cover, due to the inclusion of Seven of Nine (or Annika Hansen) across the three seasons. Not only that, and this is coming after finishing the third and final season due to what the former Enterprise D crew found themselves dealing with (apart from the Borg), Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is also another series to catch up on in terms of learning more about the Changelings and the Dominion War which Worf did explain to his former crewmates, because this time Worf also gave an update on what had been happening after the end of the Dominion War especially for the Changelings. Star Trek: Enterprise also got an indirect shout-out in the final season in the penultimate episode, due to what is the story behind 'Frontier Day'.
It is after all, coming to the end of the 24th century and into the 25th century world we are in, in the world of Star Trek. - CreatorMike McMahanStarsTawny NewsomeJack QuaidNoël WellsThe support crew serving on one of Starfleet's least important ships, the U.S.S. Cerritos, have to keep up with their duties, often while the ship is being rocked by a multitude of sci-fi anomalies.
- CreatorDan HagemanKevin HagemanStarsRylee AlazraquiDee Bradley BakerBrett GrayA group of enslaved teenagers steal a derelict Starfleet vessel to escape and explore the galaxy.
