Yeah, that was a great show. I especially liked how they tied in so many nautical aspects to it!

There were a lot of episodes that reminded me of a futuristic destroyer/sub showdown...awesome show, and I miss the lack of new episodes. I'm looking forward to Star Trek XI.

Have you guys seen the new versions of the old episodes?

New special effect and cleaner looking but not overdone.

If you get a chance to catch them on TV in your local area, they look great especially compared to other old shows that are updated and ruined. Not this show, it looks so much better now.

I think theses aired shows are what are on the new DVD set.

I compared the updated version on TV with the original versions that I have on the original DVD set and it's amazing how much was done without it looking to obvious.

I was sad seeing him go. Watched the last ST documentary, that concentrated on the 40th aniversity and the great auction. Leonard Nemoy was the narrator. Almost cried seeing the old cast, talking about their adventures, all the props, everything. A very heart breaking one and a half hours.

When I learned about his death, I rewatched Relics so many times, I damaged my DVD drive. Then off course every movie followed.

It's sad seeing each go, one by one. Bones grew old a pretty fast, in the first TNG episode, I couldn't recognise him. Atleast Shather is still at large. Seeing how he's doing, he'll most probably live long enough to see the Earth-Romulan war, if the something else, later on.

Deforest Kelly (aka Leonard "Bones" McCoy) was under a lot of makeup in that episode to make him look older than he was. If you look at the movie Trekkies, which was made in 1997, before Kelly died, he looks very similar to his TOS days.

EDIT: Just for fun:

Picard: I've just been paid a visit by Q. He wants to do something nice for me.
Riker: I'll alert the crew.
