To be honest I miss seeing the original "original"... but then again I saw the complete original first run, remember me and sister giving my dad crap to get us home from school supply shopping so we didn't miss the premier (the salt monster)

Would you believe that the television network use to put out glossy hi end brochure (like new car brochure) hi lighting the new fall lineup ... My sister had sent away to NBC for the "66" fall lineup brochure so we were all hyped up for this new show "Star Trek"

I guess that would make me a Paleo-Trekee

We saw the special showing at the theater last week. It was The Menagerie. It was also an add for the DVDs. The remastering for HD does enhance th quality of the picture. They also tried to spiff up the look of the shuttle craft and other objects. I didn't notice that much. The shuttle craft still look like cardboard going across the room on a string. The story is still compelling for our money.

PS: I don't think Star Trek will be the driving force in the DVD HD market.

Cool. Now that would be a collectable!
