    Just saw an ad on Discovery for a documentary called Trek Nation. I've found a list of a lot on memory-alpha but I'd like to focus on just the best. I've already seen "Captains" (weird) but that's about it! Cheers! :)

    Trekkies, and Trekkies 2 are the only two I know of, and only discovered them recently enough myself. Defo worth a look...

    Trekkies was a laugh! I've heard the sequel ain't the best though. Trek Nation was a bit dull. I guess the rest pale in comparison to Trekkies?

    I watched Trek Nation last night. One of the guys in work recorded it for me. It was a lot of rehashing of things any decent trekkie should already know but some of the interviews were nice and Gene Jr was pretty honest overall I think. They went through everything as well, even taking in Earth: Final Conflict which was a series I liked until it kinda got derailed round about season 3 if I remember. Not the most exciting but certainly worth a look nonetheless.

    The Star Trek Story was on BBC2 last week, might find it on YT.

    They also had "The Magic Tricks of JJ Abrams: A Culture Show Special" on the same night, if you have access to iplayer, well worth seeing.
