The show's devoted fanbase conducted an unprecedented letter-writing campaign, petitioning NBC to keep the show on the air. The series was cancelled at the end of its third season. The show became successful in reruns, and thus the Star Trek saga was born. In , Star Trek's most critically acclaimed episode, "City on the Edge of Forever" written by Harlan Ellison, won the prestigious Writers Guild of America Award for Best Original Teleplay, although this was for Ellison's original draft script, and not for the screenplay of the episode as it aired.
All times are Eastern Daylight Time. September 8, — August 31, Thursday, — P. September 15, — August 30, Friday, — P. September 20, — April 4, Friday, — P. June 3, — September 2, Tuesday, — P. This is the one that started it all. For a series with so much significance in television and pop culture history, it's surprising to find out that Star Trek: The Original Series lasted for just 79 episodes over three seasons.
Each episode lasts 50 minutes for a total of 3, minutes, meaning it will take just under 66 hours to watch them all uninterrupted. In other words, The Original Series can be finished in less than a week. Star Trek: The Next Generation was so successful during its seven season run that it's arguably more popular today than The Original Series.
The Next Generation's episode count topped its predecessor by almost a hundred for a total of episodes, each with a 44 minute run time. That adds up to a series total of 7, minutes, or If the viewer is free from work for about two weeks, The Next Generation series can be completed. This category will cover every live-action series following The Next Generation that's no longer in production. The 7,minute run-time equals approximately hours or five and a half days. Voyager has episodes that also run for 45 minutes for a total of 7, minutes, or hours.
Enterprise got the short end of the stick compared to its predecessors with only 98 episodes in just four seasons.
Every episode was 42 minutes long which translates to 4,, or just under 69 hours. Those three completed spin-offs combined are 19, minutes long, which equals hours and 36 minutes. Star Trek: The Animated Series only lasted for two seasons in the early s, releasing 22 episodes that were each 24 minutes long. So The Animated Series is only minutes long, or just under 9 hours. Jonathan Archer Scott Bakula , captain of the first starship Enterprise, sets off to explore a very mysterious galaxy with only a stalwart crew and a desire to do some good along the way.
The series explores the origins of classic Trek aliens, technologies and institutions. The two most recent films, Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness , act as a re-boot of Kirk's original crew, but with new actors cast in the classic roles.
The stories still fit together with the old continuity, thanks to a judicious application of time travel.
The first thing you'll need is a way to watch the episodes and films. If streaming services aren't your style, you can buy any of the complete series on Blu-ray or DVD, although prices vary. If streaming is an option for you, it's almost definitely the cheaper route. Watching the shows is relatively simple, as you can access the series with a Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Video subscription. While these movies are often available on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, they rotate in and out, and you'll invariably be unable to find the one you want when you need it most.
In my case, starting with Enterprise and going all the way up through the end of Voyager with all 12 films included took from to , or about three-and-a-half years. However, I also took fairly regular breaks to watch other shows, including the entire runs of Breaking Bad and Parks and Recreation. A more dedicated individual could do it in a fraction of the time.
Assume, for argument's sake, that you can watch one episode or one-half of a movie every day. You can't, and I didn't, but it's as reasonable an average as any. If you started on Jan.
