Star Trek: The Next Generation

DVD Geeks is a show where we wear our biases loud and proud for everyone to see. On this “very special episode, physician ” we’re waving our geek flag high and spending an abnormally long time reviewing a single release: “Star Trek: The Next Generation” Season 1 on Blu-ray.

Why? Well, more about it’s a huge technical achievement first of all, and second we just couldn’t wait to see if we could prove ourselves wrong with the malaise that had set in about TNG’s retro-uncool ’80s veneer. Does the show really hold up, or is it best delegated to the nostalgia bin?

We dig deep into a few choice episodes, but we also talk about all those snazzy new special features. We even got to sit down with Roger Lay, Jr. who directed and co-produced the monumental special features. Trust us – this feature-length look at TNG will make those early DVD release special features seem like a sad old memory.

There are a few minutes for “Honorable Mentions” this week as well so you can detox from Trek when you’re good and ready.
