Summary: Great transfer to dvd
Review: Where no man has gone before is one of my favorite trek episodes one of the closest to pure sci-fi of all the trek stories.This dvd is great I have the laser disc yet as soon as I saw the dvd I could see a difference ,the dvd video is obviously superiore,what a difference! And they re-did the audio into some kind of stereo or surround (thank you)! This should be the standard by wich all old transfers of television shows are done!

Summary: These are great
Review: The Star Trek on DVD are wonderful. The quality of the picture and sound from DVD is a ten. My only complant is after every episode you have to press the play button on you DVD player. It stops and tells you what the next episode is. Who cares what the next episode is, just play it. This does not happen when you play your CD's. You dont have to hit the play button every time the song ends. This really needs to be fixed in the next releases so you can setup your "Repeat Disk" options.

Summary: Like watching each episode for the first time
Review: I was blown away by the quality of the discs, adn would recommend them to anyone. Obviously I plan to buy all the episodes, I only hope they speed up the release schedule. Paramount should offer many more titles for Christmas. Yes the inside is only a two page foldout, but it is well done with a checklist, a good trivia question, and full credits and cast.

Summary: Attention, the British VHS version is far better!!!!
Review: I was really disappointed with the DVD version of the original Star Trek series. It is too simple, the only extra feature on the DVD are those old traillers which we can find in the American VHS version. If you compare it with the British VHS versions you will see what I mean. In these VHS you can find exclusive interviews with the actors and each video comes with a card to collect; the difference on the quality of the image is almost irrelevant and its case is very pretty and with all the videos together the phrase "We are the first to reach this far" is formed; on the other hand the DVD case is too simple with a stupid photo of a character and in an ugly orange-colored stile. In my opinion Star Trek deserves more and this is not the definite collection as people are saying, I bought it and I am sorry I did it. I just hope that the The Next Generation DVD version be better and released soon!!!

Summary: And So It Begins
Review: First of all - the picture and sound quality of these two episodes are both excellent. Some people have criticised the soundtracks but I think they must be the same people who prefer vinyl over CD.As to the two stories on this tape. "Where No Man..." is an excellent episode featuring some brilliant acting from William Shatner - eg when he speaks to Dehner about the frailties of a human god. This episode, more than any other, possesses a sense of wonder that was prevalent in the Original series and even in TNG, but is now sadly lacking in DS9 and Voyager. There is imagination, intelligence and that little bit extra which makes it easy to see why Star Trek has become so enduring. "Corbomite..." is another good episode which again features some good moments, especially a thinking reasoning Captain Kirk rather than the smooth operator of the third season. If you only ever buy one Star Trek DVD then buy this one, but I would suggest buying the others too, especially if you like good storytelling rather than explosion of the week.

Summary: "Kirk to Enterprise!"
Review: William Shatner delivers his lines in excellent form. This is the first pilot episode with Shatner and even better than the very first (not that the first one wasn't bad, I loved it). Now it is on DVD and in excellent condition. This format I think has restored the original value of the series and now you can own it as if they were being broadcasted on T.V. once again. It is terrific and a must for all die-hard Star Trek fans as myself.

Summary: Beautiful transfer!
Review: Star Trek never looked so good. The new transfers are worth getting, even if you already own the original series on tape or laserdisk. My only complaint is the packaging: Hideous. If I had seen the DVD package on the shelf in the video store, I would not have touched it.

Summary: Fantastic! I'll be buying them all.
Review: All I can say is WOW! I own all 79 episodes on VHS and the quality is worlds better on DVD. I can't understand why people are complaining about the episodes. Guys, get real; I go to the local video store and pay about 15 bucks for ONE episode on VHS. I pay less than that for TWO on DVD here on Amazon and the quality is superior. Personally, I think it's a better deal. So how is Paramount ripping anyone off? Anyway, of course the episodes were excellent, but I was stunned by how incredible the quality of the DVDs was; I watched VHS and DVD back to back and there's just no comparison. I can't bear watching the VHS episodes now! I've already pre ordered the next DVDs and am eagerly awaiting their release. In fact, my only question is, come on, Paramount, when are you going to give us Next Gen on DVD? I can't wait!

Summary: Timeless, brilliant, better than the subsequent spinoffs
Review: I was 23 when it first came out - the Vietnam war was just starting to heat up. I didn't start to watch it until it came out in syndication around 1974. Some of the social allegory is quite obvious, but it still wears well in spite of the cheesy special effects and in spite of some really rotten episodes (like CHARLEY X or the one with Melvin Belli) , not all of which are bad enough to be good. However, of the 79 (depending on how you count them) episodes, there are at least half of them that I will watch just about every chance I get - even though I have seen all of them (bad and good) at least five times. Yes, it is better than The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine and that latest lame opus with the woman as the captain who sounds like Katherine Hepburn on helium. What's better? The stories, the good ones anyway (notably MIRROR, MIRROR, the ENTERPISE INCIDENT, ARENA, AND BALANCE OF TERROR) and the action - TNG doesn't have enough of it; neither do the other two, but most of all the repartee among Spock, McCoy, and the others...
