Martin could I ask you something. Perhaps you hace not not seen it but I posted a thread about Star Trek The Animated Series on DVD. Could you tell us anything about this series on DVD. Do you have plans to release it in the near future?
Thanks

Sorry Martin,
Just reading more into something than there really is. That's the nature of Trek fans I guess. I wouldn't mind seeing a separate release that has some of that Sci-Fi Channel stuff though after TOS is over with. Assuming you can get it (who owns the Sci-Fi Channel anyway - I keep forgetting).
Bertrand,
Martin's stated in several older threads that Paramount seems to have no interest in releasing TAS - despite the fact that there seems to be quite a market out there waiting for it. They have, in a rare moment of agreement with Mr. Roddenberry, decided to de-canonize and ignore TAS. Never mind that Roddenberry, D.C. Fontana, and most of the other TOS producers and writers actually worked on it. They did release a laserdisc boxed set several years ago, and there aren't that many episodes with each about 25 minutes (with no commercials). It should be fairly easy for them to release a small boxed set of maybe 3 discs total.

Martin,
Sorry to read more into your post than was there.
Thank you for keeping us up to date on the Original Series DVDs. Even though I think the idea of boxed sets is a good one, I want you to know I am thoroughly enjoying the DVDs you are producing! TOS has never looked and sounded better, and it's obvious the restoration is being done by talented people who really care.

Thank you Martin for keeping Star Trek fans in the loop as much as you can!! Can't wait for TMP announcement as well as future Trek announcements. Will TMP be announced on the 17??? I'm excited to hear about it as well as what will be included on the two disc set. Thanks again!!!
