Pretty cool... but is it canon?

OK.

So James Cawley spent $100000 to recreate the sets. Kudos. And seriously impressively dedicated. Then he actually started to film new episodes. Impressive. I have to admit I even enjoy his take on the Kirk character. He has his own style to be sure but it's his and his alone - much like Shat's own style back in the day.

I actually imagine James Cawley built in an apartment to the closed used car dealer he built the sets in. I would have.

The only thing I really have to say about it is this, and this is why I don't really understand this episode...

Pavel dies at the end. He obviously doesn't die in the real time line of Star Trek. He has to be around to say "Botany Bay? Botany Bay!" in Star Trek 2 - The Wrath of Khan. (Even though his character is no where to be found in the original Trek episode with Khan....) Should this episode have not been slightly rewritten to somehow save the character? Other than that - it's pretty cool to see new Trek episodes.

And James Cawley, if you read this - I'd love to work on the show. Keep me in mind. =D @yahoo.com
