Online Star Trek events really seem to be getting into the swing of things, making up for lost convention time this summer. So now is as good a time as any to log on and join in.

The regular stuff

Finally, some stuff I’ve told you about before that are still going on:

• These are the Twitter watchalongs:

  • #allstartrek runs Sunday through Friday at 8/7C and follows the Heroes and Icons Channel’s All Star Trek programme.

  • #TOSSatNight starts at 9pm PT on Saturday night and follows a different episode of the Original Series every week, and

  • #StarTrekHour is a Q & A-format event, every Tuesday at 1pm PT.

• Then there’s Star Trek: Netflix Party, hosted daily and coordinated on Facebook. Every evening, they use the Netflix Party Chrome extension to watch Star Trek together. To find out more, head over to Star Trek: Netflix Party on Facebook. 

If you have an online event or gathering you’d like me to promote on the show, let me know! How are YOU getting together with your fellow Trekkies, without leaving the house?
