Bill Shatner wants to create a new Trek

Daemonik
writes, According to this Article
on Cinescape, William Shatner is pressing to have his idea for a
new Trek series be produced. Could Bill be better than B&B?
Could he possibly be worse?

Also attached to the article is a picture of T’Pol’s new uniform for
the upcoming season of Enterprise. Go check it out and be
awed, because this uniform is one of the stars of the new season,
or so we’ve been told.
I’m all for the injection of new
creative talent into Star Trek. Shatner’s involvement with the
franchise has primarily been under Roddenberry, so as long as
he can keep himself behind the camera, he might actually come
up with something worthwhile.

The Future of Star Trek?

GrimSean
writes, I don’t know how many of you read the SciFiction
website over at SciFi.com, but I figured I should share this with everyone in case
you didn’t. Michael
Swanwick
, noted author, has been doing a little
something called the Periodic
Table of Science Fiction
, and the element featured
this week is Seaborgium. Give it a click – I found it funny.

I laughed out loud. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some
partially chewed Pez to clean up.

Star Trek DVD News

Cinescape
is reporting that Star Trek: Voyager seems poised for
an entirely unsurprising 2004 release, in much the same manner
as Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star
Trek: Deep Space Nine
enjoy. There’s also mention of
complete season packages of the original series being made
available in the future. UPDATE: Gord, founder of TV Shows on DVD,
has just informed me that there was no official annoucement of a
TOS release at VSDA, and that Paramount officials couldn’t
confirm the “interesting speculation” about the release. The
Voyager release is confirmed, but the TOS is still uncertain to say
the least.
