Looks good, huh? Glad to see Spock getting a little screen time in this one. Actually, the trailer is clever in that it gives plenty of the bridge crew a look in. There’s a chance to spot your favourite. Benedict Cumberbatch glows with evil. His star will climb further. I don’t know about you but […]

Star Trek: TNG makeup test reel
Before any show starts filming in earnest they’ll test the look of the characters; different hair styles, clothes and accessories.

Do you agree? There’s certainly some […]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_nVEm5Yc3c Over 10 minutes of out-takes, bloopers and gags from Star Trek: The Generation season 2. The original ST:TNG was shot in 35mm film and so this collection has been cropped to YouTube’s 16:9 to enhance the experience. It’s not clear whether this is an official collection or not.
