A fan's wish fulfillment

Although this is a truly amateurish endeavor, James Cawley and company make a fan's dream come true for themselves.They claim not to be doing impersonations,however Cawley has Shatner's swagger and broad delivery down pat. The actor trying to portray the late Deforest Kelley's Dr. Mccoy, can't come close to the lovable, yet irascible character, But for the fans of the original series will note he wears a pinky ring. Star Trek, in all its subsequent incarnations have suffered from technological jargon in lieu of good storytelling. New Voyages returns to a time blissfully free of treknobabble; thus for all its good and bad points, is truly a loving homage to its sources material.After all is said and done, it's a guilty pleasure
