I wonder what this means to the old series'. BBC was trying to get sci-fi to purchase old rights as well, that's why most of the PBS stations no longer air the show.

 

[SnakeEyes]

Uh, no, not really. The acting is better, the writing is worlds better, and the special effects are, well, actual special effects. Not exactly state of the art, but certainly respectable.

I agree with this statement.

Will Sci-Fi even show ST:ToS?

Just noticed that CD Wow! have the box set at the equivalent of $68 excl. VAT and worldwide delivery is free.

Actually, that one comes to £46.12 which converts to $80.07, or they actually have a US dollar option that is $83.78.

$80.07 is just a straight conversion of the UK price, and so includes UK sales taxes. The Amazon UK site removes those once you enter an overseas delivery address. Strange.

Wasn't talking about Amazon UK there, £46.12 is the CD Wow price. I took the order to the step right before charging the card.

Amazon related info was the post before:

I'll be curious to see what gets edited out for time.

 

[SnakeEyes]

The original episodes are 45 minutes long, so I'd say little if anything...

Ive already seen this first season, didn't realize they were only 45 minutes.

 

[SnakeEyes]

This is the BBC's thing. They make all shows 45-50 minutes if they think it'll sell overseas. That leaves time for commercials (although in SciFi it feels like 20 mins of show and 40 mins of ads and promos!). I think a standard hour-long drama in the US is 46 minutes.

Yeah I know, i just wasnt paying attention to Who's running time.
