I recently bought all 3 series on Blu-Ray.
Just need to find the time to get through them all now..

Be interested to know what the picture and sound quality is like, although think I will get this anyway as I am now really wanting to watch same

Definitive other worldly, Si Fi , spaceyness from childhood

Picture and sound quality are excellent.
The exterior shots of the Enterprise orbiting planets have been vastly improved by replacing the original poor quality with very good CGI images, which kind of give it a more modern look.
There have been some improvements in special effects also.
Some die-hard Star Trek fans probably don't agree with these changes but to me they do freshen up the look of the series.
But however good the picture looks, certain episodes remain pants (Spock's Brain for example. HD pants)

Dude!!! I loved that episode. It had me in hysterics. Some of the lines from that episode have gone down in history as absolute Star Trek classics. Especially the bit where Bones forgets how to perform brain surgery.

....was it supposed to be funny?

I bought the sets individually over a period of about 4/5 months.
They cost me between £38-£45 per series. But i see now that there is
a box set with all 3 series in. Which would have been beyond me
if that was the only option.

The DVDs are pretty good in themselves to be honest, but I only had series 1 and the other 2 would have been about £30 each anyway.
So for the difference in price I opted to sell my series 1 DVD and use that towards series 1 Bluray.
Then bought the other 2 sets later.

im considering the remastered box set of series 1-3. some superb science fiction storylines within, along with some awesomely wooden acting and sets

Tangerine Dream
