The remastered DVDs produce excellent video as played by my Blu-Ray player and displayed on a 52" HDTV. There's very little image noise, and the colors are brilliant. The remastering is a fantastic improvement over the original copy.

This was ordered incorrectly and was returned to to the provider. I am still waiting for the credit to show up on my credit card statement

The only reason I can find to buy this DVD compilation is if you want to watch it on the road, because you can watch every episode for free on Hulu. I forked over nearly $200 for my set so I could take it to school with me and watch it on my breaks (which are anywhere from 2 to 4 hours!) It's great, don't get me wrong, wonderfully remastered(although, I would prefer the original) It's still a great product if you have the money to spend. The one BIG BIG BIG problem I could find is that there were no English subtitles! Being as it is Star Trek, there is a lot of foreign vocabulary and I would have really liked to have seen the words written out for me... Plus, subtitles strengthen your linguistics and spelling skills! It only had Spanish and French subtitles, and thankfully, I speak both, so If I'm in a crowded area and can't hear through my headset, it sure helps.
I love Star Trek, and have for 11 years, over half my lifespan! I had to have this collection so I could watch it on TV without sitting in front of my computer to watch it on Hulu, which is another reason why I bought it. It's a great addition to any avid Trekkie, but for the price... too rich for my blood, but I don't regret my purchase.

Star trek is resurrected once again. I love the remastered versions, and I should know. I own all the originals. My favs are the beauty passes of the Enterprise with ringed planets, and the different angles of the beauty passes.
I still haven't watched all the episodes yet, so I'm sure some surprises are in store.
If you are a Star Trek fan, this is a must have!!

OK, the good thing is they did proper scans of the earliest generation films possible. That's about where it ends. As everybody knows, they changed all the special effects shots. I'll repharase, they replaced cheap, cheesy 1960s special effects with cheap, cheesy 2000s special effects. They look hollow and fake at best. So if they weren't going to put in a real effort, why bother replacing them? At least the models used in the original series looked like actual objects rather than drawings. As for the rest of the restoration, the newly recorded theme bothers me to no end. They used the original monologue from Bill Shatner, why not the music? The rest of the music was remixed from their 3-track sources and sound great, no problems there. As for the picture, the image is noticably cleaner than it used to be, but they messed with the color/contrast a great deal, added people in the background where they didn't used to be. Really, why did they do this? I guess I'm in the school of thought where you ust don't mess with the classics. A lot of people say "well if CG was available back then, they would have used it". Yeah well, they didn't have CG so don't pretend they did by inserting it into an obviously 40+ year-old TV show.
