I recently came across Star Trek Continues on Youtube. It was made in the 2010s. The idea was to completely the five year mission the Enterprise was on in the TV series, which was cancelled after 3 years. These were crowdfunded and not for profit. They had to get CBS's permission to do it, but since they agreed to not do it for profit, CBS agreed. The episodes are really good. And if you take away that fact that the actors don't look exactly the same as in TOS, they look and and sound just like TOS. I've seen a bit of other fan-created shows and these are on a whole nother level.
They even got some prominent actors to guest star. The guy that played Apollo in TOS (when they visited the planet where Apollo ruled) guest starred, playing Apollo again. Lou Ferrigno guest starred. So did Erin Gray (Wilma from Buck Rodgers in the 24th century). John DeLancie (the guy that played Q in ST: TNG) guest starred. Scotty was played by Chris Doohan, who is the son of the guy that played Scotty in TOS. Remember Mythbusters? One of the engineers on there was a guy named Grant Imahara. He plays Sulu. I looked him up and unfortunately he died a couple years ago at only age 49.
Several of the episodes were extensions or sequels to episodes on TOS, such as the one I mentioned with Apollo. If you're not into ST: TOS then you're probably no longer reading, but if you are into it then go to Youtube and check them out. Just type Star Trek Continues in the search box. There are 11 episodes, with that last two (10 and 11) being the two part finale where they actually finish the five year mission.
