Review – Trekkies 2

Second verse, similar to the first. Denise Crosby once again explores the realms of devoted Star Trek fans. This time around the production values are a bit cheaper, no doubt to make room in the budget for trips to Europe, Australia and Brazil in search of the international Trek phenomenon. Frankly, they could have saved the money. The overseas footage was largely devoted to conventions, which don’t look much different in Italy and Germany than they do here. The crew also revisits some of the folks from the first one and unearths a few new ones. Overall this one seems more affectionate than the last one. I wonder if Crosby took some heat from the fan base after the first one made them look a little crazy. Though most of them look just as nuts, the spin is less freak show and more at-least-they’re-happy-and-don’t-hurt-anyone. Mildly amusing
