Ok, TOS will always seem techonoligically unsophisticated by today's standards. This remastered version will not fix that. Just as TNG will eventually seem less sophisticated as time goes on. But, we should remember that TOS never had the budget and technology that TNG did and this remastered version brings the Original Series up to speed in that matter. The Enterprise looks awesome and the attention to detail is amazing. No, I don't think these "remastered" versions will do much to improve silliness of episodes like "Spocks Brain." However, Star Trek TOS had so many interesting and intellectual episodes especially in this first season. The only thing, in my opinion that sometimes took away fromt these great episodes had to do with poor special effects. The Enterprise flying sideways, or bouncing around the screen like it was attatched to a wire (because it probably was!). This remastered version brings the brilliant special effects that were so acclaimed in TNG and gives that benefit to TOS. In this way, the special effects add to the story, instead of taking away from it. And NOTHING is lost. They haven't messed with, or taken away from these original episodes. They have only enhanced them. Hats off to the team who worked on this remastered version! If you loved Star Trek, you'll love Star Trek Remastered!
