content

The series takes place directly after the original series in the years 2269 and 2270. Although the USS Enterprise is theoretically identical to the spaceship from the original series, it already contains a holodeck like the spaceships in later series. There were also some new pieces of equipment such as oxygen belts instead of spacesuits. These innovations did not appear in the films that follow this series.

Production and publication

The series was produced by Filmation and consists of 22 almost 25-minute episodes that were first broadcast in the USA in two seasons from 1973 to 1974. In the original, the characters were spoken by the actors in the real film series, with the exception of Pavel Chekov ( Walter Koenig ), who was replaced by Lieutenant Arex, a member of a three-legged and three-armed species. Walter Koenig worked as a screenwriter on the sixth episode. Directed by Bill Reed and Hal Sutherland . Another new addition is Lieutenant M'Ress, who takes on the position of communications officer in some episodes of the series and represents Uhura. M'Ress is a member of the Caitian people, an anthropomorphic, feline species.

Episode list

synchronization

The first dubbed version was created in 1976 by ZDF on behalf of Deutsche Synchron in Berlin. Michael Miller wrote the dialogue books , while Karlheinz Brunnemann directed the dialogue . The series was adapted by the broadcaster for what was then children's television. Four episodes have been left out and the other episodes have been shortened and partially cut. In addition, the dialogues were roughly changed and edited in the style of Schnodderdeutsch synchronization.

In 1994 the series was completely re-synchronized for video evaluation. For the second dubbed version, Kurt E. Ludwig wrote the dialogue books largely true to the original and also directed the dialogue. In contrast to the shortened ZDF version, almost all voice actors who were heard in the original series and the Sat1 synchronization were hired. The German video title was Star Trek - The Adventure of the Spaceship Enterprise .

In the meantime, only the second synchronized version is often used. The series has also been translated into French, Russian and Turkish.
