Review & Description
Originally broadcast on network television in 1996, this tape might almost be seen as a companion to William Shatner's Star Trek Memories. Indeed, the companionship is so close that, on occasion, the two share anecdotes, film clips, and even phraseology. Constructed as a tribute hosted by Ted Danson, it features ample helpings of classic Star Trek, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Deep Space 9 and Star Trek: Voyager TV shows, as well as the various Star Trek movies, in several well-crafted montages of film clips. All of the principals are on hand (live or on tape) and a number of them give speeches, along with such celebrities as Jerry Stiller (who riffs on the depth of his Star Trek obsession) and Joan Collins (who recalls her role in the popular 1967 Star Trek episode "The City on the Edge of Forever"). There are, in fact, probably too many speeches--and what was the deal with that Voyager skit featuring the cast of Frasier? High point: a clip from The Simpsons, spoofing the movies featuring the original (and aging) cast. --Marshall Fine Read more
