I grew up as a HUGE fan of “Classic” Star Trek (TOS) in syndication in the 1970s and loved its positive future for humanity. TOS is really still my favorite Trek due to its sense of adventure and freshness, as well as the great Kirk-Spock-McCoy interplay. And I like the animated series based on Classic ST also.
I had seen most episodes of TOS repeatedly throughout the years, but only saw the whole series again about 6 years ago when I bought the remastered DVDs, so I was thrilled with their much improved special effects and great picture quality. I was accustomed to seeing the show with lots of scratches and colors faded badly, but no more!!
Concerning the endless debate about which is best, Classic ST or Next Generation, I think each has its pros and cons, and each did some excellent episodes, some good ones, some mediocre, and some poor. I really find the two series to be more similar than different.
Anyway, since I’m still a big fan of “Classic” Star Trek I’m very glad that I stumbled across this community on Google +.
