Standard Orbit: A Star Trek Original Series Podcast
104: That’s Not A Real Thing

Mike & Drew’s Final Thoughts on TAS.

While its come up a few times in conversation, we've not really delved deep into The Animated Series. In this episode of Standard Orbit, Mike and Drew give their thoughts on the only Star Trek series from the 70's. Is the writing really that bad? Does the animation need to be updated? And who let Spock do magic?
