It really says something when a fan-made show has a far better understanding of the themes, mode, and lore of Star Trek than it's "official" show runners in our modern age.

Even the sound effects the music the doors the buzzers the lights you guys recreated everything so perfectly what an excellent way to show respect to the original series absolutely awesome

[billdevitt]

A brilliant job of sticking to Gene's story, guys! Impressive acting and sets! Well done to everyone involved! Thanks so much! As I've been a Star Trek fan since 1965! 😊

I have watched this fan series from the beginning and have been entertained and impressed from a general fan perspective until now. Speaking as a critic, this episode 'Kitimba' has literally blew my socks off, from a directorial, storyline and acting viewpoint, and is one of the greatest offerings in Star Trek fan films on par with the spirit of TOS itself. Wsll done!

It's great that the comments have not been disabled. Us true Star Trek fans can tell you that we indeed appreciate all your efforts to bring us some good stuff, thanks a bunch guys!

Guys, I have no words to describe the thrill to watch these episodes of ST Phase II. Only now in 2019 I noticed about them. The actors accomplish same level of Shatner, Nimoy and DKelley. Simply amazing. James Cawley is fantastic!!  I do wish you to be rewarded for this great effort to bring us so wonderful memories of our life.

[luiszuluaga]

Lots of dramatic action, plot driven storyline and K’argh is played so very well.

Finally and episode that doesn't have comments disabled!

I've got to say, having watched from the Pilot to here, I am very impressed with what these guys have done! Man I miss Star Trek, RIP, but man this hits all the right old school Trek notes.

I really enjoy the banter back and forth between the crew, very well done.

Well done guys, I know this is "old" now, but I hope you guys found success in this endeavor.

Thank you, for bringing us new Trek memories of old friends!

Wow! This is quite possibly the best fan production I've ever seen. All the things that normally fall short on fan films (writing, acting, directing, editing) were top notch here. This is engaging from start to finish and I only wish that this could be included as part of official canon, since the tale adds a great deal of depth top Klingon culture and could fit in flawlessly with what we've been shown in TNG and ENT. As James Cawley's final entry playing Kirk, this is a fabulous way to say goodbye.

As a life long TOS fan you folks hit it square out of the park into deep space with this episode! Congrats to all involved and I must say Vic and Michelle made for incredible Klingons!  For the first time since I was 8 in 78... TREK IS BACK!!!!  

[supercrew]

I love and appreciate all the hard work they have done to bring us these excellent shows..

[geraldhimmelspach]

Thank-you for producing these films. Missed Star Trek

Mr. Cawley: An excellent production from every angle. I must say this is one of the most exciting and epic chapter I have ever seen within the Phase II saga, and even better than some TOS tv shows. High definition delivers new details and brilliant new colours to all the sets and space locations, and the new aspect ratio (16:9) adds new life to them, in comparison to the old series. Special effects are also top of the art. A remarkable job indeed, perfectly done. And I loved that Corvette driving reference when you are on the bridge. This episode is simply amazing. I´m going to miss you as the captain of the Enterprise,  but I believe Vic Mignogna is about to do it great as captain as well. Will Mr. Doohan be included also in the part of Scotty? I wish you all a happy new 2014! Thanks for keeping the original series spirit always on top. Well done!

The Dr MCCoy "How about a cloak with that dagger, " brought 50 years of my Star Trek interest and enjoyment, full circle!
Amazing! a half century and I am watching new retro episodes. KUU-PLAH!!

[stephendunne]

Impressive!! The animation and the sound design stand out particularly for me. Good job everyone.

[Papa_Doug_Taylor]

I love this show. These guys get better & better.

[usernamemoved]

AWESOME !!!!  AWESOME !!!!  AWESOME !!!!
Gil Gerard and Andrew Probert in the same episode?  That's a lot of awesome all in one place.  Buck Rogers AND the guy who designed the best looking Enterprise ever (twice) on an episode of Star Trek --- it doesn't get much cooler than that.  Lucky for us it didn't cause a rip in the Time-Space-Awesomeness continuum.

And the rest of the episode is so great also.  One of the best Star Trek stories I've seen -- every bit as good as anything from TOS or TNG.  This is one of the BEST episodes of any of the fan-made Star Trek shows!

[cinemabon]

Production values and acting have improved a great deal. Looking forward to new "Kirk" (who resembles Shatner) and episode in February. Great job for cast and crew. I'm so happy you've stuck to the 1960's/Roddenberry look to the set and production while updating special effects. Fantastic!

[billaccord]

Scotty, Spock and Chekov are my favorites. Lt. Uhura and Capt. Kirk are awesome, too. The original music and sound effects makes you feel like you are watching the original Star Trek.

[omegaman]

I must admit I came across these little gems purely by chance and decided to watch a bit ? I then thought nah ? But realised I needed to just get Iver the fact it wasn't shatner etc portraying the crew and watched some more? I must admit these are an undiscovered set of gems the acting the effects everything true to the originals but with a modern feel I now intend to inform and share my find to others who I know will enjoy these as much as me .congratulations to everyone who is or was involved in these amazing productions take a bow you earned it .
