Two longtime Trekkies. Five years. 726 episodes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you really get through this in five years?

To tell you the truth, probably not. We did some fuzzy math at the beginning and now we're kind of stuck with it. But 7 years is just as appropriate for similar reasons, and it's very likely we'll manage that.

Are you going to cover the films?

Our plan is to cover the films together, like we did "The Cage," either at the very end or at hallmark events like the blog's anniversaries. However, when Into Darkness comes out in May, we might hijack this as a venue to post our collective or individual reviews of that film.

Are you going to cover The Animated Series?

We tried to leave ourselves a loophole on that one by specifically alluding to the Star Trek canon, since Roddenberry officially de-canonized the show. But in all likelihood, we'll find a way to cover those episodes. Bingeing them all in a row during a summer or holiday break has been discussed...

What's the update schedule?

Tuesdays, Jonah alternates between The Original Series, Enterprise, and Deep Space Nine, covering DS9 twice as often. This is a measure to compensate for TOS and ENT having fewer episodes.

Fridays, Nathan alternates between The Next Generation and Voyager.

Who are you guys anyway?

Like most people on the Internet, we're nerds with too much time on our hands. We're identical twins, we were raised on Star Trek, and we live in Massachusetts.

Where can I go to learn more about Star Trek on an episode-by-episode basis?

The Star Trek wiki, memory-alpha.org, is one of the best fan wikis on the Internet, and we lean heavily on their episode pages when we write our reviews/recaps. If you want to pay money for something, there exist companions for each of the shows except Enterprise, of which the Deep Space Nine Companion is by far the best.

If you write a blog like ours and want to do a link exchange, email piratenotincluded@gmail.com.

Can I write a guest post for you guys?

Maybe! If you have a particular episode you love and want to write up, send us an email at piratenotincluded@gmail.com, in plenty of time before we get to it.

You guys are great, but I wish I could enjoy your wit in the form of songs posted in Internet videos!

Boy are you in luck, fake person I just made up to ask me leading questions! You can find us on YouTube under PirateNotIncluded.

I have a question not covered here.

Write it in the comments! Or use that email that I've already typed out like twice! It probably won't even have to be asked that frequently for it to appear here.
