I have just started watching this excellent fan made series on Youtube. I couldn't help but think that this show feels less like "fan fiction" than the Abrams movies do. I guess that happens when someone thinks they are smarter than the original creators.
Has anyone here watched "Star Trek Continues"?

I've watched it, feels very much like Star Trek of old which is great and the provides a fitting conclusion to the original show. Although, I could never quite believe these were the same characters from the original show, and I can't help think it might've been better if they had set it on a different ship with new characters.

I watched it. It suffers from the limitations of most fan stuff, though it's certainly at the top end of that spectrum.
It definitely feels more like real Star Trek than the turds the current official series poops out in place of episodes.

Is it better than new voyages?

I have not seen new voyages yet but I have heard several people say that "continues" is better.

I have not seen new voyages yet but I have heard several people say that "continues" is better. I think I watched the first 5 episodes. But they were taking so long to make episodes I figured I'd just wait another 20 years till they got 10 episodes under their belt.

I haven't seen Continues (can't recall if I'd heard of it before; there so many different fan projects that have come up over the years). I watched most of the New Voyagers/Phase II episodes, and they were pretty decent; though it did suffer from not being able to keep up their original pace (which is understandable). I always marveled at how many Star Trek alumni, both writers and actors, they got involved with that. It bugged me though that they didn't try to reconcile their Chevok episode with continuity.....
