FAMILY GUY is about to boldly go where no show has gone before by reuniting the entire cast of STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION… for a play-date with Stewie. Seriously. On March 29, TREK’s most popular crew, including special guest voices: Patrick Stewart, Levar Burton, Gates McFadden, Michael Dorn, Wil Wheaton, Marina Sirtis, Brent Spiner, Jonathan Frakes and even the dearly departed Tasha Yar (Denise Crosby) will all be making an unexpected return to the small screen when America’s most devilishly diminutive tot decides to build a transporter and beam the entire crew of the NCC-1701-D to his bedroom so they can spend a fun-filled day together in Quahog.

If you only get one chance to make a good first impression, why is Paramount holding off on releasing the official trailer for its highly-anticipated STAR TREK re-boot until Monday at noon? (startrekmovie.com)

Or, as our favorite pointy-eared philosopher might put it. Is it not highly illogical to in essence punish those of us who didn’t contribute to QUANTUM OF SOLACE’s 70 plus million dollar opening weekend? You’d think that rather than send fans scurrying across the internet to dissect a poorly shot low quality YouTube bootleg (see video above), Paramount would be doing everything in its power to ensure that the millions of potential ticket buyers get re-introduced to STAR TREK in the most positive of ways.

Just a thought from one TV Addict who is very much rooting for J.J. Abrams’ take on this once storied franchise to live long and prosper.

Even with the lukewarm reviews, audiences still flocked to the series premiere of FX’s newest drama DIRT. In fact, 3.4 million viewers tuned in to watch Courtney Cox return to television as Lucy Spiller — the no-nonsense editor of a celeb-obsessed coincidentally named ‘Drrt”. If you missed the premiere, you can now download the episode for $1.99 on iTunes. Check it out by clicking here.

Also available on iTunes for the first time ever is the first season of STAR TREK THE ORIGINAL SERIES. The first twenty-nine episodes, in case you missed the reruns that have been airing for over thirty years, are available by clicking here.
