Trek Two Years Ago

These were some of the major news items on March 18, 2000:

• Kirk Not To Be Brought Back
  William Shatner's (James T. Kirk) manager Larry Thompson said that although the actor would love to reprise his Kirk role on screen, Paramount had given no indications that they were planning to bring the character back.

• First 'Fury' Images
  The first photos from the upcoming Voyager episode 'Fury' surfaced online. They showed a much older Kes, as well as Janeway and Kes from an earlier season.

  More news can be found in the archives.
