Hello World!

You'll have to excuse me. I've been cheating on the franchise.

As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I've been involved in an eBay bidding war to try to complete my X-Files video collection. We lucky people in the UK have seasonal video boxed sets of the show released, and I've collected them for years. The only set I was missing was season two, which I've just managed to grab.

As a result I've been watching long periods of X-Files. It's fun to see episodes I haven't seen for years, laughing at one liners I can remember from years ago. For some reason, Scully's line "Mulder, toads just fell from the sky!" cracks me up every time. Ahem.

My cheating heart has also been reading X Files fan fiction. Particularly recommended is anything post-colonisation (Mulder and Scully against the world), Blinded by White light by Dasha K, and The X Files novel Length archive. You should also visit the best XF site on the net, the Haven.

Trek Two Years Ago

Below are some of the most important headlines from TrekToday on Tuesday June 29th 1999:

Is Star Trek Dead?
We published an article by Jeff 'Koganuts' Koga about what the future might hold for the franchise.
Star Trek's Future? It's dead, Jim. I'll be honest with you. I don't expect this rant to have any far-reaching effects whatsoever. After all, this is just an editorial - I am just a regular geek and a Star Trek fan. And as a fan, I have supported the franchise for over 13 years now -- almost half my life thus far -- but recent events have led me to believe that Star Trek is dead. And I need to get this off my chest because it has been bugging me for some time.
You can read the full aricle in our archive here. Two years later of course, with a new Star Trek series in production and a new movie due to start shooting in the Autumn, there's still a lot of life in Trek yet.
Sev Trek DeForrest Kelley Tribute
This week's new Sev Trek cartoon featured a tribute to the recently deceased actor and Bones McCoy. Click here to read it.

More news from that day can be found in our July 1999 archives.
