A selection of three classic Star Trek: The Next Generation episodes arrives on Blu-ray in remastered form.
Which begs the question, is this a blast from the past, or just mildly stunning?
At one point Troy says, The board is green.
What does that mean?
She never said it again, Im sure.
Theres also a nice handing-over-the-baton scene where DeForest Kelly comes onboard as a very senior Admiral Leonard McCoy.
Logically youd think that the disc might include a season two and three episode to go with the pilot.

Those are interesting episode choices, and show the series in a number of radically different moods.
But the question on allTrekfans minds is surely, what of the quality?
Its a slightly mixed bag, for me.
Most of the new or revamped effects are nice, though nothing earth shattering.
Often they just look much sharper, which fits better with the clean and bright live action work.
Some sequences have been entirely rebuilt, using CGI ships, and these look really good.
I guess they want to keep what documentary material they have for the box sets, understandably.
