I have mentioned on the message boards that the original Star Trek is coming back to weekly play on local syndication this fall. Yesterday Paramount officially announced that. Star Trek will replace Star Trek: Enterprise on your local station starting this fall. This is to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the show. CBS Paramount Domestic Television is releasing digitally remastered episodes, with all new special effects and music, to celebrate the groundbreaking series' 40th anniversary. The new episodes also mark the first time in 16 years that the original Star Trek series can be seen in broadcast syndication. The episodes will begin airing on the more than 200 stations that own the rights to the weekend broadcast syndication window starting Sept. 16 (check local listings for station and dates). All 79 episodes of the original Star Trek series will eventually be remastered, with the first batch of episodes chosen from a list of Star Trek fans' favorite shows. The most noticeable change will be redoing many of the special effects, created with 1960s technology, with 21st century computer-generated imagery (CGI). That includes: Space ship exteriors, Show opening, Galaxy shots, Exteriors, and Background scenes. If you're in the New York City market, WNBC will air the show on Sunday nights at 3:35am starting Sept. 17. And don't forget Trek will have 40th anniversary celebration on TV Land on Sept. 8, then it will join the network's line-up starting in November.
