did they update the CGI work? Would love to see the improved Eagles or Hawks! :-)

You watch a show in the context of the time it was made. Star Trek TOS on blu-ray was one of the most ambitious projects as regards budget for restorations in HD, with all new CGI... and most purists watch the Blu-rays with the original 60's effects (both are included). HD enhances anything. I understand you have the DVD's and might not want to upgrade, but fact is... the BD's enhance the appreciation of the series for most people. This has been a popular Network set.

@GhibliFan1 Thanks for the reply. I know that 35mm native resolution is far higher than HD. Mine wasn't a concern in regards of the quality but of the content. The elements in that TV Series are very simplistic (special effects, costume, the space itself, the monsters) compared to nowadays movies/series of that kind. I have the whole series in DVD which I bought about 8 years ago; however its Blue Ray version doesn't enhance anything that is already enhanced from the regular DVD.

HD isn't a modern invention. Anything shot on 35mm film has about 4 times more resolution than Blu-ray. Go and Look at The Prisoner or Star Trek season 1 on Blu-ray... they're often regarded as reference quality along with the likes of Batman Begins or Blade Runner. I have a film from the 1920's on Blu-ray and the detail is gobsmacking. Watch the video on here called 'Blu-ray vs DVD the ultimate 1080p comparison', set to 720p full screen... and prepare to be amazed.

@varanid9 i see.... im problably gonna give this show a chance sometime then

@kallemick The sets, costumes, and general overall atmosphere was obviously a huge influence in how Trek:TNG would be presented.

@luigicamp69 Anything shot on 35 MM film is not a waste on Blu Ray

Great series... but on Blu-Ray? What a waste lol
I hear they didn't crop the picture top and bottom and left it native 4x3 A.K.A (12x9).
The reason I didn't buy the Thunderbirds on Blu-Ray is because that series was cropped to 16x9 to be full screen on new TV's.I cannot wait to see the quality of the spaceships and explosions in 1080p.I'm glad this show was shot in 35mm color film
The shows like Dr Who,Blakes 7 etc were shot on analog tape and look like shit.
