The Treksperts, MARK A. ALTMAN (CW's Pandora, The Librarians, Agent X) and DAREN DOCHTERMAN (Star Trek: The Motion Picture - Director's Edition) invite you to take a trip back in time to STAR TREK'S Lost Years as Phase II story editor JON POVILL takes us on a journey through the making of the unproduced STAR TREK TV series, PHASE II, that paved the way for STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE. Jon shares amazing stories from the mid-70's of Star Trek's movie to TV back to movie transition as well as The God Thing, The Questor Tapes and befriending a struggling Gene Roddenberry as he attempts to write a wild screenplay about alien first contact called THE NINE. Go behind-the-scenes of the STAR TREK TV series that never was.  

NEXT VOYAGE: The Treksperts are joined by TV showrunner GABRIELLE STANTON (The Flash, The Vampire Diaries, Farscape) and ASHLEY E. MILLER (Black Sails, Lore) to discuss "THE WOMEN"... of STAR TREK.
