Star Trek: The Original Series - Season One BLU-RAY

The wait is finally over. Season one of Star Trek: The Original Series is being released on Blu-Ray Disc. I have been waiting for this ever since the HD Disc War was decided and Blu-Ray won. A couple of years ago when it was decided to not only restore The Original Series but to enhance it into hi-def I was happy. I've been happy with the look of the series. The Special Effects look crisp and the picture looks clear. According to the CBS Store here is the information about the disc set:
  • Actors: William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley, James Doohan
  • Format: AC-3, Closed-captioned, Color, Dolby, DTS Surround Sound, Dubbed, Subtitled, Widescreen
  • Language: English
  • Subtitles: English, French, Spanish
  • Aspect Ratio: 2.35:1
  • Number of discs: 7
  • Rating: Not Rated
  • Studio: Paramount
  • DVD Release Date: April 28, 2009
  • Run Time: 1460 minutes

And at a price of $89.95, I'm going to put this on my wish list. I can't help but notice that the set is coming out two weeks before the new movie. I have also found out that the discs include both the original episode and the enhanced episode. Thats a great value.
