56: You’re Not Spock, Go Away - a podcast by Trek.fm

Star Trek: Phase II.

Almost ten years after The Original Series went off the air,
Paramount was ready to bring back the show as Star Trek II (not
that one… or THAT one), also known as Star Trek: Phase II. While it
went back and forth between being a movie and a series, the
casting, sets, and a lot of the episodes were already prepared, and
some were re-purposed into The Motion Picture and The Next
Generation.

In this episode of Standard Orbit, Mike and Drew talk about the
series that mostly never was. Would it have worked? Would it have
ended up like Mission Impossible II (not that one) and The Young
Indiana Jones Chronicles, existing but remembered by few? We go
through the new characters, the possible episodes, and several
tangents on our way to Phase II.
