| Star Trek Cadillac |
What I like with my DVD's is English Captions and the ability to skip forward through the video in segments to get to where I was before I had to turn it off. These DVD's do this and more. I liked the movie maker's comments that are optional with some of the episodes. And I really liked Rodenberry telling his story of how Star Trek started. I liked the addition of each star in the movie talking to the viewer in a separate section of the video. |

| Good Ol' Sci Fi |
Nothing like the original Star Trek - even if the special effects are primitive, the acting and plots are creative. And Season 1 is the best of the 3. Shipping from Amazon was slow, but what can you expect for free... Star Trek The Original Series - The Complete First Season |

| Bargain price - get em while they last! Oops, it was nice while it lasted! - Oops, wait a minute........ |
As an owner of all 40 of the 2-episode discs, I've always wanted to have all three of the ST:TOS clam-shell sets but bristled at the though of buying something I already had. But with each set presently priced at a reasonable $35.49 each I finally made the leap. Each season set is uniquely packaged in a colored plastic clam-shell case with the DVDs stacked in a clear-plastic holder with a sleeve that I'm sure will not hold up all that well. The insert with content details is a nice touch.
For me, probably best viewed when the weather turns hot 'n humid here on the East coast this summer.
UPDATE: 05.03.08
Well, the price is back up again but still not at the ~$100 level that each set started with. For a series that only had 81 episodes due to corporate suits with short-sighted vision, this show & it's future iterations continue to grow in popularity.
UPDATE: 05.05.08
Well, the price is back down again; price index must be tied to the stock market:) - Now is the time to get em again. Great quality; a bit of a pain as they are not in the order of broadcast. This $36-38 range is fairly reasonable. |

| better than locally |
There's a local reseller of used DVD's and other items who is charging 70.00 for this item. I was happy to find it on Amazon for considerably less. |

| Watching it with the "Next Generation" |
I bought these to watch with my twelve year old son-"The Next Generation". He had never seen any Star Trek series and now he is in love with the original. They are better than I remember them. I last watched them in college on a small black and white set, to watch them on a large color sceen makes them better. Although a little dated, especially the special effects, they were still great stories and to watch and hear the dialogue between Kirk, Spock, and McCoy again is quite a treat. |
