Star Trek. We are lucky in Japan!

Posted by Chris_in_Japan on Tuesday, May 3, 2005 3:07 AM

Hi guys.. Dont know why I decided to write this.. But after complaining about not even getting season 3 of Enterprise screened here in Japan as of yet, the channel that shows Enterprise has made up for it in so many ways!.

Although very late, we are finally getting the 3rd season of Enterprise. But to add to that. The same channel (Super Channel) has, this month, started screening not only Enterprise. But also the original series of Star Trek, The Next Generation, Voyager, Deep Space Nine, Star Trek the animated series, and also the movies! This will be a long term thing, and so I am happy to say that we will have all forms of Star Trek on every day!.. After living in Australia, and the US, I have not known a tv channel that has had all incarnations of Star Trek screening at the same time? We are very lucky here..

Now... All I want is for them to start screening Battlestar Galactica!

I love Super Channel!
They often go on Gerry Anderson binges, too!

When are they going to show TAS? I haven't seen more than a few episodes since the original airing in the 1970s.

If I remember from the last time I watched TOS on Superchannel, a problem is that their TOS tapes are sort of cruddy-looking and chopped up (although I don't know any worse than standard US syndicated).
