Beginning in 2001, the Montreal-based company Golden Media (Tilzy.TV page) produced an online comedy series called Star Track: The Next Hesitation, which ran for about six years and twenty episodes. Self-described as “boldly going where most fan films have gone before,” this series gently mocked itself and the Star Trek franchise.
Though GM co-founder Christian Fauteux never went to film school, he was the key figure in writing, directing, and editing the series. Like most fans, he did this as a hobby shared with family and friends. The first episode was so crudely amateurish that even the GM website describes it as “terrible” and worthwhile only to show how much the show developed over the years. And, indeed, if you look at the last episodes, you’ll find dramatic improvements on all levels of production. The series even won an award at a recent sci-fi fan convention.
Fauteux and company have released their next series, Star Track: Idomo. The pilot episode is about the USS Idomo’s maiden voyage to both investigate a destroyed Federation planet and rescue the USS Titus, which had gotten sucked into an outer space “temporal anomaly.” ###

The Titus tries to sabotage the Idomo’s rescue effort, partly because, for one Titus crew member, Captain Tremblay’s “eyebrow thing really pisses me off.” Tremblay (M. Ernest Kennedy) confronts the Titus and, after some pyrotechnics and unlikely plot twists, all problems are magically and happily resolved–at least until the next episode.
