cassidy 0 Posted May 25, 2003 I was wondering if any of you knew where I could get a copy/hire of the star trek animated series episodes. I haven't seen any yet and I want to make it my life's goal to watch all episodes of trek, but I can't if I haven't seen the animated ones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
master_q 0 Posted May 25, 2003 I too have never seen TAS. I went to Amazon and they seem to have episodes of TAS on VHS: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/630...1300533-4684607 Master Q StarTrek_Master_Q@yahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ddillard 2 Posted May 26, 2003 I have seen a few of the animated series, it used to be on the Sci Fi channel (back when I had cable). They are pretty good, a little primitive, but not bad. I also think you can download some of them from Kazaa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stelfan 0 Posted May 26, 2003 Have to download and watch them I guess, I have never seen TAS before.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tank 0 Posted May 26, 2003 I've seen the VHS taped for sale on ebay but it's hard to find more then one or two of them. I've also seen the entire series on ebay availible on Laser Disc, but then agian who really has a laser disc player... I myself downloaded the entire series from Kazaa and then burned it to VCD. I know these can be hard to find so I would be more then happy to share with anyone who is interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ktrek Posted May 29, 2003 well actually most dvd players can play laserdiscs. i know my dvd player can play laserdiscs and my dvd player is already 4 years old. im sure most still do play them. I'm not trying to be argumentative here but I would like to know how your DVD player can play a 12" laser disc since the standard size of a DVD is 4"? Perhaps you were thinking of another format like the VCDs mentioned? Ktrek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cassidy 0 Posted May 30, 2003 thanks for all ur help, guys. but the only thing is that my pc isn't fast enough to handle episode downloads. also i dont wanna buy off the net cos i find it very risky (besides, i dont have a credit card) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not that I'm very old but I do remember when you could walk into a record store and the whole store was full of vynal except for a small area for casset tapes and an even smaller area for CD's. And lets not forget the days of Beta! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thayln 0 Posted May 30, 2003 Go ahead and watch the animated episodes, if you want to say you've seen all Trek. But then you should really read the adapted book versions ov the cartoons that Alan Dean Foster wrote. They were much, much better. In fact, the story he wrote about the ancient, posessed ship is one of my favorite Trek stories of all time. It was very haunting and beautiful, not to mention intense Kirk torture/Spock comfort.

Your talking about the "Log" series are you not? Log 1, Log 2, Log 3 ect... I can't remember how many they made. I've never actually read them but I've been wanting to.
