Boldly tune in every Saturday this September.
Star Trek’s 60th anniversary officially arrives on Tuesday, Sept. 8, which marks six decades since The Original Series episode “The Man Trap” first aired on NBC. And now another television network plans to usher in Trek’s big birthday with a celebration of its own. Check out the MeTV trailer, courtesy of TrekMovie's YouTube channel below to see what the broadcast company has in store this fall.
According to the MeTV trailer, the television network’s month-long celebration will include “rare TV specials, memorable crossover moments, and beloved cast and fan-favorite episodes.”
Star Trek fans can tune in every Saturday night this September starting at 11 p.m. ET as the channel’s celebration commemorates 60 years of boldly going, and the fun runs all night long until the next morning at 6 a.m. Check out the full schedule below (per TrekMovie.com):
