Although I dont have cable at my house, I can get the channel that is showing it, but it is very fuzzy. I will try and get it clearer, so I can set up my VCR to record it, because Im not going to stay up 'till 2am to watch it. This looks GREAT!!!

If they did it in a contemporary style, there would be no way to marry those "modern-sci fi" looking-effects with the live-action scenes of the show -- not without making unbelievable alterations (such as rotoscoping the actors into equally elaborate digital environments). Going "Lucas" with Star Trek would be intensely controversial and alienating. If these clips are representative of the changes, what CBS is doing will increase the enjoyment of many and offend only purists, who can watch the unaltered versions airing concurrently on at least two cable networks.

Made things look really cool, not just cool cheesy. But I think it's cool, just would have loved to see star wars like planet shots etc. instead of papermache. :-) they should have done a star wars episode 4 with it.

If they wanted to attract a young audience to the Original Series they should've made the space scenes a little bit more like what we're used to seeing in modern Sci-Fi. For example I was expecting to see the impulse engines glow red or blue like we were used to on newer Trek series; also the Romulan Bird-of-Prey seems as dull as the one I was used to in the original episodes. However it is an important improvement, but not as much as I was hoping for. Still I think I'll have to see a bit more to be able to make a diffinitve judgement on the quality, quantity and even necessity of these modifications.
