with the problem of interstellar travel solved, i would think that steam and boilers and turbines were things of the past. just like oil lamps are today.

Kirok,
I don’t think they need a scientific consultant. I think they need a 60s effects consultant. those planets look bad. they look like star wars. and why is there oceans on the planet? it’s supposed to be a burned out dead planet. and what is wrong with smoke? besides it could be steam. nuclear plants make steam. Oh, and it’s the 23rd century. and no, you don’t sound like harlan. no where near whiney enough.

Captain Pike, what time and day is it on in Seattle? KSTW (Channel 11) at 10:00 pm isn’t the right time, nor any time between 7 pm and midnight. I checked the local TV guides and didn’t see it come up when I watched those channels… is it a different day?

some of these “enhanced planet” shots are ridiculous. in the opening scene, the enterprise was orbiting with the planet on the viewscreen. THE PLANETS SURFACE WAS ADVANCING AS THE ENTERPRISE FLEW OVER IT??? THIS IS WRONG!! in another shot, the orbital period looked to be about 90 SECONDS. RIDICULOUS!! Get a scientific consultant for chrissake.
the refinery in devil in the dark was judged to be in need of some touching up, so they added SMOKE?!? SMOKE int 22nd CENTURY?!?

and the enterprise and crew are on a 5 year mission to explore etc. etc. NOT to sell ORANGE CREAMCICLES!!!!!

DO I SOUND LIKE HARLAN ELLISON!!!!

Portland Oregon isnt broadcasting in HD either. Thats Shatners real hair in TOS. Ellison also has his own damning story of his run in with Shatners ego. Bill wanted him to swing by his house with the finished script before delivering it to Paramount. Ellison
as a courtesy did but realized when there that Shatner wasnt reading the script but just counting his lines!
I wish theyd add more F/X in the episodes. This couldve had an exterior shot of the enterprise riding out the temporal waves, make the ruins more dramatic and actually have them stretch into the horizon as mentioned. Add a CG sky. Put some famous skyscrapers in the backlot scenes. I thought they were going to do these kinda things. Better time clips in the portal. The opening shot of Enterprise going into orbit around the planet was well done.

The only way it’s on cable is because your cable company carries your local stations. It is not being shown on any cable network.

Trek Remastered is available both over the air and on cable but I would certainly think that cable or a direct (home dish) setup would be far superior to anything you would receiver via antenna – Right?
