Gay-themed "Star Trek" webisode is complete...

AfterElton.com editor Michael Jensen reports in his Best. Week. Ever. column that "Star Trek: New Voyages" has wrapped its two-part special "Blood and Fire" episode.

Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily

seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
