Guest stars abound in the finale of the surreal series of animated 'Star Trek' shorts featuring Will Riker, Hikaru Sulu, D'Vana Tendi, and more!
The Big Picture This week, Star Trek: Very Short Treks reaches the final frontier, and its final episode, with "Walk, Don't Run." Two generations of Star Trek animation find themselves in a bitter clash — and only a pair of Starfleet legends can help them.
After presenting a montage of Animated Series clips, the perpetually upbeat Tendi doesn't choose her words carefully and suggests that her predecessors walked so she and her fellow Lower Decks stars could run — to which Scotty and company take great offense. Conflict ensues over clashing animation styles, the introduction of the holodeck, and the raunchiness of Lower Decks' humor, and before long, pants are doffed in anger.
Who Are M'Ress and Arex? Star Trek: The Animated Series debuted on NBC in 1973; the series was animated by Filmation, the studio famed for Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids, The New Adventures of Flash Gordon, and He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. The series reunited the Enterprise crew, all of whom were voiced by their live-action portrayers — save for Walter Koenig's Chekov, who was omitted for budgetary reasons.
Like the other episodes of Very Short Treks, "Walk, Don't Run" was created and executive produced by Too Many Cooks' Casper Kelly; Ashley Kohler also executive produced. Brandon Betts was the supervising producer, and Aaron Hawkins produced and directed. New Star Trek: Very Short Treks shorts air every Wednesday on StarTrek.com — warp over there to watch "Walk, Don't Run" and the four other Very Short Treks right now.
