Star Trek: TNG Coming to Scifi?

I was just looking at the schedule for Scifi and in June they are going to start Star Trek: TNG on Monday Nights. When did this happen, if it's not a mistake with the scheduling?
 
I am SO torn at this moment.

I despise all that is SlyLieChunnel for all the shows they've gotten people interested in and then cancelled.

I also wouldn't have gotten some nice home-brew DVDs of ENTERPRISE without them airing it...

...and now I can finish my recordings of TNG as well, which were wrecked when SPIKE dropped it before airing season seven again.

HOW can I now continue to hate?!?!

There must be a way!!!!!


:p
 
By the way...

That article said
"...Star Trek: The Next Generation...will premiere June 2 on SCI FI..."

Less than a month to go, guys!
 
Why am I having visions of them airing "The Pegasus" and "These Are The Voyages..." back to back?
 
That would be awesome. TATV was such a great TNG episode.

I'm certainly not looking forward to how much editing they'll have to do. And do I really need another excuse to watch more TV?
 
For me, this is great news. Even though I haven't seen an episode of TNG in years--not counting TATV--I've actually been nostalgic for the series in recent months...

I really hope SCI-FI runs this show in order rather than start hopping all over the place and skipping entire seasons, though.
 
Yeah I'm wondering when the minisite will be up and what the episode order will be...'course I've seen practically every episode but it would still be nice...

Well, TNG is airing one night and ENT is airing the next night. It might be close one of these days. I think Scifi should do that at least once. It might give people something to talk about at least. ;)
 
Well I'm glad scifi channel is getting the rights.

how long was it on Spike, does anyone know, I can't seem to remember. I thought they still had a few years left.
 
Will we see HD maybe? I get SciFi's HD version.


Since TNG wasn't done with HD in mind, it's a good question as to what we'll see.

TOS, when shown in HD, failed to pass the test due to the special effects and such not being "HD worthy". That's why they had to be all redone, which led to what's now called "TOSR" ("R" meaning "remastered").

TNG has the same type of problem. The filmed portions with the actors on the sets may come across good, but the special effects and other stuff (such as ships in space) may fail, just as happened with TOS.

That's why there's been talk of TNG getting the "R" upgrade too. Hasn't happened yet, tho'. (As far as we know.)
