Fire up your phasers, my friends. Trek-loving sci-fi fans with an exceptional aptitude for facts and figures relating to perhaps the greatest space-based entertainment franchise in the whole galaxy (sorry "Star Wars") should mark March 24 on their digital calendars ASAP.
That night, CBS and Paramount Home Entertainment will host a gala Star Trek Trivia Night for all "Star Trek" faithful to salute the new release of "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Season One" on Blu-ray, DVD, Blu-ray Steelbook and 4K UHD Steelbook.
