Is this the 'Star Trek' thing? Yes, there is. But we can also understand the enormous confusion that goes with the proliferation of Star Trek – the sixth TV show in the cinematic universe, the sixth film, the sixth movie and the sixth – having been released just over a year ago. The issue is that, despite the large uptake, the releases don't arrive until the next year. This is when we talk about Star Trek.

For those of you who don't know, Star Trek is a TV series in which humanity's not only on a galactic adventure, but is somehow forced to become the dominant species in the universe, representing many of the best officers on the federation. But it's the series' cast of characters who actually make an impact, and here it is, with their leader, James T. Kirk, playing his first family.

The first episode of this first episode debuted on March 26, 1989. And now, over 20 years later, CBS aired this wonderful, heartwarming and socially profound show – which we all love to hate and hate – that is much deeper than anyone anticipated.

Star Trek (as the title suggests) has been going strong for over two decades. There were eight shows in total, with an eighth making it to broadcast in 1999. However, it was Star Trek, the first ever non-canon show to air in that time period, which launched the career of one of the most influential Sci-Fi writers of all time.

Star Trek: The Original Series debuted on the Paramount Network in 1999 and was an instant hit, with audiences looking for more drama and action. A plethora of other shows followed, such as TV shows such as Firefly, The Tomorrow War, Battlestar Galactica, and Star Trek: Picard, all of which feature a deep and complex world.

So, it's no surprise that CBS began to ramp up production of new Star Trek shows on the air, with notable exception, perhaps the show's most famous and beloved character: Spock.

The Vulcans were a small part of a larger movement of species united by decades of Federation space exploration. The red tape that was airing during the third season of Star Trek: The Original Series took place during the first season of the show, and their birthplace of the Romulans is in the reminiscence episode.

The Vulcans were created in a time before the Federation was formed in order to tackle the threat of war. At the start of the series, the Enterprise crew of the original series was rather incapable of communicating with each other, even as they were unable to communicate or interact with each other due to their own complicated relationship with each other.

The crew of the original series, along with the crew of the USS Enterprise and the Enterprise itself, was riddled with technical problems. The Klingons that were part of the crew were often scared and might not get along. The Klingons that were shown in the episode, meanwhile, were often angry and shown to be a single-minded race that made many life decisions that were to be broken for the sake of fixing themselves.

Not only was this the point where the Vulcans had to show their often emotionless side, but they also were incredibly emotional and even if they weren't always right they were not always on the right track. In the original series, when they were being preyed on the manipulated Spock, Kirk and Flint was both a great threat and a great threat to anyone who came in close to them. Even if they had managed to do both things at the same time, Kirk and Flint could be killed tragically as well, a horrible thing.

The good news for fans is that this might be an issue for the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds series. The producers seem to have a habit of making these type of decisions on the first few episodes, where a lot of their main cast gets killed off in the process, but there seems to be a very deliberate consensus among the audience: that this happens far too often. In the pilot episode, there's a scene in which Picard is shown being shot in the chest by a Romulan senator, which probably wouldn't have happened if it was at all on screen.

It's worth noting that there's never any mention of the Q Continuum. The Q Continuum have shown up in The Next Generation and Voyager, two shows that have never really been shown to have any connection to the Q Continuum. There are a few episodes where the Q Continuum appear to be watching the iconic Enterprise D, which might be why they decided to call it "the most advanced and capable starship ever created." There are a couple of episodes where the Continuum are fighting the Continuum, all while their variants continually try and claim them for what they're doing.
