Star Trek Animated Series Episodes

The last new animated STAR TREK episode featuring Captain Kirk and his crew aired on Saturday morning, October 12, 1974. Curt Danhauser, creator of web site: Guide to the Animated STAR TREK, the Internet's oldest and most extensive site devoted to the forgotten STAR TREK series, is hand-creating a new set of full-length Animated STAR TREK episodes for release free on the internet. These new shows have been in the works since December 2006 and will be written, directed, produced, storyboarded, animated and drawn by Curt Danhauser. To kick off the new episodes, a 7-minute animated short feature "The Element of Surprise" has been created as a proof-of-concept and as a fun reminder of what it will be like to see new animated STAR TREK episodes after almost 30 years.

These new episodes are intended to be a direct continuation of the animated STAR TREK series produced by Filmation Associates and are thus set in the timeframe of that series' second season which is the future year 2270. The full length episode "And Let the Heavens Fall" is slated to be released next. For more details about this short film go to it's page in the Guide to the Animated STAR TREK web site.
