On Sept 16, Scifi gets the original series and they are totally redone. Not a BIG overall, but the bloopers are fixed, the Enterprise is 3-D and the Earth is replaced by a picture of the real Earth from space.
It looks really neat to see a little upgrade on the original, but what makes it a classic is the bloopers and such.
You thoughts on this?????

Uh...no actually, all their doing is cleaning up the special effects and putting it in HD. Here's some images from Trekcore that show the remastering    The ships will be redone in CG. Nothing changed, simply cleaned up. Honestly, I'll miss the cheesy effects and models, but you have to admit, that this is one sexy looking Enterprise

It looks really neat to see a little upgrade on the original, but what makes it a classic is the bloopers and such. You thoughts on this????? SciFi's been airing the original for YEARS. Do you have a source for this news item? Direct from Trektoday Read the full ArticleQuote: The original Star Trek is being remastered for future high defintion television syndication as well as eventual release on HD-DVD with new high-definition CG effects. The Digital Bits reported the story in its Rumor Mill column, which reported previously that CBS Video, which now owns the Star Trek DVDs, was planning to retransfer the original series from film to HD-DVD. All of the Star Trek feature films will be rereleased for HD release as well. Bill Hunt noted that in a panel discussion at World-Con this weekend, he learned from industry sources that CBS is redoing many of the original series special effects using new CG techniques. "Specifically, they're re-doing all of the spaceship shots," he wrote. "This to me is a very exciting idea...in principle. As anyone who saw the Mirror Universe episodes of Star Trek: Enterprise will tell you, the old TOS ships look awfully damn good in new CG." However, Hunt added, CBS is doing this CG work in-house and it is not yet known whether any of Star Trek's longtime effects wizards have worked on the new versions of the episodes. "I tried contacting CBS and their DVD distributor, Paramount, on this subject last week, but there was basically no comment," stated Hunt.

Remastering is the digital "cleanup" they demonstrated, where the colours are enhanced and brightened.
It's one of the things Lucas did with the Star Wars Special Editions. That's fine and nobody can disagree with that little cosmetic kick.
The other stuff is what's making people nervous. If it's a matter of using CGI ships for the space scenes, I'm fine with that once I adjust. As for changing anything else, I'd get very nervous.
(Unless they change that pigmask for the ugly aliens, and, say, make stunt-doubles look more like the actors.)
