Hello Fellow Star Trek Fans,
If I may make a suggestion, watch Star Trek: Of Gods and Men. You will be extremely sorry you missed it

Here is some background information concerning the mini-series:

and here is the official web site where you can watch it:

There have also been several fan made films. Of note are Star Trek: Hidden Frontier which boasts 50 episodes. The BBC in 2006 called the series "the most prominent" Star Trek fan film following Star Trek: Enterprise's cancellation.

Here is some background info on Star Trek: Hidden Frontier

and here is the official website to download the episodes. Follow the advice of series producers and first see episode one of the 6th season. Seasons 6 and 7 are well done with superior acting and story lines

Now guide to the wonderful of Star Trek would be complete without special mention of Star Trek: Phase II (f/k/a Star Trek: New Voyages)

Co-creators James Cawley and Jack Marshall aimed to complete the original series' five-year mission, with actors cast as Kirk, Spock and the rest of the Enterprise crew on an exact replica of the original bridge set. One episode -- "To Serve All My Days" -- was written by D. C. Fontana, story editor on the original Star Trek series and featured Walter Koenig guest-starring as an older version of Pavel Chekov, his character from the original series. Several other actors from the original Trek series have also now signed on to appear in future episodes. George Takei reprised his role of Hikaru Sulu in the third episode, "World Enough and Time", joining the original Yeoman Janice Rand, Grace Lee Whitney. Fan Films Quarterly listed New Voyages as one of the ten most pivotal moments in fan film history in its Summer 2006 issue, and has been reported on by National Public Radio. [12] New Voyages also won TV Guide's 2007 Online Video Award for best sci-fi Webisode. [13] On February 16, 2008, during an appearance at the Farpoint Science Fiction Media Convention in Baltimore, Maryland, James Cawley announced that the series would shed the New Voyages moniker and become known as Star Trek: Phase II to reflect the transition between the original series and Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
