Star Trek: Fan Collective - Klingon (2008)

A four-disc box set containing Klingon centric fan-picked episodes from each of the live action Star Trek TV series. The selection is excellent (I'll include the full list in comments) and is presented in chronological order, not in actual production order, meaning Enterprise is first.

You'll notice that there are two feature-length episodes and a two-parter; I like that kind of thing, but would it not have made more sense to combine the two-parter into a third feature-length and advertise it as such?

Included are TOS: The Trouble with Tribbles and DS9: Trials and Tribble-ations, which, most people reading will already know, are connected despite being made almost thirty years apart. However, if you'd been buying all the Fan Collective boxes as they were released, then you'd already have that particular DS9 episode in the Time Travel (2006) box. It's great to have it alongside the TOS episode, but it's still double-dipping for the consumer and blatant whoring from Paramount.

Extras include audio and/or text commentaries for some episodes from various writers and producers of the show.

11 episodes, approx 44 mins (single ep) or 88 mins (feature-length) each.

4 good days to die out of 5
