Leave a reply

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

As we speak, I’m gradually making my way through the ‘Star Trek Continues’ series to celebrate 60 years of ‘Star Trek’ whilst also working on my in-depth reviews for Series 15 of the new ‘Doctor Who’ TV series with Ncuti Gatwa. Thankfully, I can say that I’m happy to share my review on the fifth episode of this fan-made series called ‘Divided We Stand’. This is an episode that gets to showcase Captain Kirk and Dr. McCoy as characters when they find themselves in a strange but deadly scenario of fighting in the American Civil War. The episode stars Vic Mignogna as Captain Kirk, Todd Haberkorn as Mr. Spock, Chuck Huber as Dr. McCoy, Chris Doohan as Scotty, Grant Imahara as Sulu, Kim Stinger as Uhura, Wyatt Lenhart as Chekov and Michele Specht as Dr. McKennah. The episode also features Martin Bradford as Dr. M’Benga, who appeared twice in the original TV series and is currently a regular character in ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’. Continue reading →

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

This year, it’s the 60th anniversary of ‘Star Trek’! 🙂 To celebrate the occasion, I’ve decided to do individual reviews on the episodes of the fan-made series ‘Star Trek Continues’, which was released from 2013 to 2017. Back in 2024, I did a quick review on ‘Star Trek Continues’ after having seen all the 11 episodes on YouTube. It’s nice to revisit this series, as it feels so authentic in being like the original ‘Star Trek’ TV series with Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Dr. McCoy and Scotty. I wanted to celebrate the original ‘Star Trek’ TV series specifically for its 60th anniversary and doing individual reviews on the episodes of ‘Star Trek Continues’ is a great way for me to do it. 🙂 Continue reading →
