History WebVideo / StarTrekRenegades

* TheBlackDudeDiesFirst: Played straight, with the man who tries to warn Chekov "we can't trust anyone!"

* BlueSkinnedSpaceBabe: Shree, the Andorian hacker, is an oversexed blue-skinned lady with a black leather getup and a penchant for (lesbian) BDSM.

Due to the regulations set forth by CBS and Paramount in June 2016, ''WebVideo/StarTrekRenegades'' will be redubbed ''Renegades'' and will be moving forward as an original IP with its Star Trek elements removed.

%%* FiveManBand:
%%** TheLeader: Lexxa
%%** TheLancer: Ragnar
%%** TheSmartGuy: Dr. Lucien
%%** TheBigGuy: Icheb (not literally a large guy, but definitely the muscle, with his Borg implants)
%%** TheChick: Fixer, oddly enough

* InformedAbility: Lexxxa, allegedly an intelligent character and planner, attacks the bad-guy homeworld by just calmly walking in with guns. [[RealityEnsues This predictably results in two deaths]] and [[NearVillainVictory the bad guys almost winning]].

''[[http://startrekrenegades.com/home/ Star Trek: Renegades]]'' is an independent fan funded and supported Internet television series, executive produced by Sky Conway and directed by ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'' actor Creator/TimRuss. So far only one pilot episode has been released, but the series is already notable for being the first continuation of the ''Franchise/StarTrek'' timeline after [[Series/StarTrekVoyager Voyager]], and featuring real ''Franchise/StarTrek'' actors reprising their roles.

Set roughly ten years after ''Voyager'''s return to Earth, ''Renegades'' opens with Admiral Pavel Chekov (Creator/WalterKoenig) and Tuvok (Russ), who now heads Section 31, realizing that the Federation is facing a threat from within. Not knowing where else to turn, they hire an outlaw crew captained by the daughter of [[Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan Khan Singh]] to undertake secret, off-the-books missions.

"Renegades" has received generally mixed reviews among Trek fans, with most reviewers praising the ambition of the project and expressing a desire to see it succeed, but criticizing the script, acting (bar the returning characters, who have received near-universal praise), and filming. While it was pitched to CBS as a potential pilot, the network rejected it, likely in favor of the upcoming 2017 series by Alex Kurtzman.

The pilot episode has been released on Website/YouTube, available [[https://www.youtube.com/user/StarTrekRenegades here]].

%%* {{Adorkable}}: Fixer

** Possible implication for [[spoiler:Chekov]], as the actor stated that the future Episodes 2 and 3 will be his last as the character.

** Captain Alvarez’s ship is the [[Series/StarTrekEnterprise U.S.S. Archer]]

* DullSurprise: When they're not [[LargeHam hamming it up]], most of the cast is expressing this.

* GenericDoomsdayVillain: The BigBad. Hates the Federation for unclear reasons? Check. Has unstoppable superweapon? Check. Is physically powerful in one-on-one combat? Check.

* LargeHam: When they're not flatter than Kansas, the entire cast outside of Picardo, Russ, and Koenig falls squarely here.
* MrFanservice: Icheb, now grown, angsty and sporting facial hair, has become quite popular with female fans.

* TheBlackDudeDiesFirst: Played depressingly straight, with the man who tries to warn Chekov "we can't trust anyone!"

%%* MsFanservice: Many of the female leads sport noticeable cleavage, but Shree takes it a step further with her black leather getup and kinky pastimes.

* TheBlackDudeDiesFirst: Played depressingly straight, with the man who tires to warn Chekov "we can't trust anyone!"

** Though a continuation set after [[Series/StarTrekVoyager Voyager]], with most of the returning characters also being from VOY, Renegades in many ways harks back to [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries the Original Series]] with the new designs for the uniforms and Starfleet decor, Admiral Chekov, a Romulan and Andorian character, and of course the protagonist being Khan's daughter.
** Captain Alvarez’s ship is the [[StarTrekEnterprise U.S.S. Archer]]
** The Breen character, for StarTrekDeepSpaceNine

%%* {{Expy}}: Ronara, the snarky, Betazoid helmswoman engaging in [[SlapSlapKiss romantic banter with a dark male character]], is suspiciously similar to Stadi, the [[EnsembleDarkhorse surprisingly popular bit character]] who died in [[StarTrekVoyagerS1E1Caretaker Caretaker]]

** Ronara's character seems like a combination of both of StarTrekVoyager's notable Betazoid characters: she's a snarky, sexy and tough pilot, like Stadi; and she's un-telepathic via a genetic defect and living as a renegade, like Lon Suder.

* TookTheBadFilmSeriously[=/=]DoingItForTheArt: Robert Picardo, and likely Russ and Koenig as well. All three are experienced enough to see the problems with the pilot film, but also are on record as loving Trek extensively (probably why they signed on for this series).

* TheBlackDudeDiesFirst: Played depressingly straight; it's the Cardassian, played by a dark-skinned actor, who's the first to be killed by the bad guys.

%%* TheBlackDudeDiesFirst: Played depressingly straight.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Lexxa's first fight scene, which ends with her revealing that she and her "opponent" are actually allies who rig the fights and split the winnings, establishing that she is a ''planner'' before a typical ActionGirl.

** {{Subverted}} when her plan to attack the villains' base, which basically consists of walking in with guns, fails dramatically and gets two people killed.

* SlapSlapKiss: Icheb and Ronara seem to be headed this way, though it's obviously too early to tell.

%%* BackForTheDead: [[spoiler:Admiral Paris]]
* BlueSkinnedSpaceBabe: Shree, the Andorian hacker, is a hot blue-skinned lady with a black leather getup and a penchant for (lesbian) BDSM.

%%* ChewingTheScenery: Some of the acting is a bit over the top.

* MsFanservice: Many of the female leads sport noticeable cleavage, but Shree takes it a step further with her black leather getup and kinky pass times.

%%* SpicyLatina: Chasty Ballestros as the feisty Betazoid Ronara

%%* BlueSkinnedSpaceBabe: Shree, the Andorian hacker.

%%* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: As you've probably guessed from the series' title.
* RuleOfCool: The only explanation for Dr. Lucien's very 21st-century-looking glasses
