Series Summary
Series Premise
Four years after the cancellation
of the original Star Trek series, Gene Roddenberry was able to resurrect the starship Enterprise
and its crew as an animated series of 1/2-hour episodes. Although Roddenberry and
Paramount Pictures never considered the animated episodes to be part of the Star Trek
"canon," many fans consider the two seasons of animated episodes to represent
the last two years of the Enterprise's original five-year mission. The series
premise was exactly the same as the original series, and many of the animated episodes
were written by recognized science fiction and former-Star Trek writers. Therefore,
although intended primarily as a children's program, the series produced many good Star
Trek stories.
