Why are there "repeats" in that list?
Remastered "Miri"!
- Thread starter acappellasaurus
- Start date
Because they are re-airing them 
There are people who miss them when they first air (like me
).

We here in the Roanoke viewing area got "Miri" at precisely 11:00pm last night, just as promised by the channel. I dunno if they'll rerun either of yesterday's episodes before next weekend, but we here in my area DID get one airing apiece of the new remastered episodes...and at very reasonable times(3pm, 11:00).

Because it's a show in weekly syndication, and that's the way such shows are always released, even when they are reruns like Stargate SG-1.
Didn't get to see "Miri" in this area. The tv listings had it scheduled Sunday but we got a repeat of Enterprise's "Regeneration" instead. 
I did get to see "Balance of Terror" on saturday tho. Unfortunately, I haven't been impressed with the new effects. It may be clearer for HDTV but comes across as artificial-looking and dark over the air on my station.

Well. No one is getting it in HDTV, as it hasn't been released that way. Though I imagine the HD station would still look better than the OTA ones.
I watched BoT again (and Miri) and I'm still pleased with this work, and look forward to what future episodes may offer.
One thing I think you guys are missing about the order in which the episodes are being released is that they're likely doing them in an order that doesn't put effects heavy episodes back to back. It's a common technique. You have 26 weeks to do 26 episodes, but some episodes require a buttload of work, and others require very little, so you spend 8 days on the effects heavy episode and 2 on the "lite" episode. In the end, all that matters is that you get them out on time and your overall budget isn't exceeded. I bet Miri was chosen because it was so effects light after BoT.
^ I think that fact was addressed a week ago.
The shot of McCoy's belmishes/scabs "fading" was essentially the same...only this time around Okuda and the CGI team simply used the very first shot after Spock grabs and turns his head, then digitally "erased" each blemish one by one without reusing the jerky original shots where you can see Nimoy's hands slightly changing positions on De Kelley's face as each spot of makeup was manually removed between takes.
I'm glad some of you guys (and gals) got to see it. I was out of town and had to record the episodes. I faithfully programmed in the times for Balance of Terror and Miri. Today I finally got some time to watch them. BoT was nice but suffered from jarring commercial editing (I sure hope they release these soon on HD-DVD). As for Miri, I ended up with the Enterprise episode Regeneration. While I normally enjoy this particular Mike Sussman episode, I really wanted to see Miri. I hope my affiliate don't pull that little stunt again this weekend. False advertising, I tell 'ya!

If it makes you feel ANY better at all, we here in Roanoke almost got screwed over on "Balance of Terror," because it was slated to air at 11:00 am in the morning for the better part of two weeks, but at the last minute the local CW affiliate aired a SMALVILLE rerun instead. 
"BoT" didn't come on until four hours later...at 3 in the afternoon...after STARGATE: SG1 and ATLANTIS repeats had been shown. This had not been announced whatsoever.

Were there any new shots on the planet itself?
I ask this because when Spock and the landing party are in the street, then Spock says "Come on!" and they all go running off, the cityscape as seen behind them seems to have more depth to it.

Down here Channel 5 runs Star Trek on Saturdays at 8pm, (the episode that FOX ran the week before( and FOX runs the next episode on Sundays at 8pm (originally at 9pm but changed it without informing viewers )
So I've seen Plato's Stepchildren, and Miri...Twice!
I still want to see TNG style interior and exterior warp bubble shots; and Star Trek: Legacy detailing on Enterprise or it least The Making of Star Trek/ Franz Joseph detailing
but...it's still yummy.
The Miri Planet looked awesome. It looked just like my Dorling Kindersley Earth atlas cd rom.
