Those scumbags at CBS just had all of the Star Trek episodes scrubbed from YouTube, now that they offer it via "paid" YouTube. I hope those pigopolists don't really think I'm going to pay $2 per episode.
Meanwhile, there are a bunch of episodes of something called "Star Trek Continues" which is a kickstarted, fan-produced re-creation of the original series with the original characters, but with new scripts and new actors. CBS apparently is ok with this because it is distributed free of charge. They've done an incredible job of reproducing the 1960's style scenery, costumes, and special effects. The writing and acting, while naturally not up to par with the original, is still surprisingly good considering it's the television equivalent of fanfic.
I am not a big fan of the show but I know it well enough so I checked the link. I see that Grant Imahara plays Lt. Hikaru Sulu, Grant Imahara is more famously known as the guy who screams "FIVE! FOUR! THREE! TWO! ONE!" in numerous Myth Buster shows.

I am sure you knew about this already but there is a lawsuit.

Sorry, I've been busy in meatspace. Was this what we were talking about?

He did some really good fan films of original Trek, then stopped mid-episode. Some people are blaming Paramount, but he did it before the whole fan film thing blew up.
