Oh, it's not THAT bad. You can make it look like you're watching SD on an SD TV if you like. It's all about the settings. I have it set on "movie theatre" which means it softens the picture considerably. I can even watch VHS, it looks as crappy as like on a standard def TV, however tolerable if the film is good :)

The only time I have been really impressed by picture quality, has been a Pioneer Blu-ray DVD on a Pioneer Plasma screen, that looks good !!!!!

Pioneer Plasma rules....I love my 42" !!!

As for Enterprise....it's not nearly as great as Voyager, DS9 and TNG. I have only watched the first 2 seasons though...

Sad news tonight...

First lady of Star Trek, Majel Barrett-Roddenbarry has past away at the age of 76. She died from leukaemia.

She played many different roles on Star Trek, most notably as nurse Chapel in the original series, and as the computer voice in all six series.
She was the widow of the late Gene Roddenberry, creator of Star Trek.

Rest in peace, Majel Barrett.

I am still shocked and VERY sad about this. I always loved her character on TNG and DS9, Lwaxana Troi. :((((

Really sad news! RIP...

That's sad news indeed. I also was a great fan of her character as Diana's mother. Sooo funny!

R.I.P. Majel!

What sad news about Majel Barrett. She will be fondly remembered and greatly missed. Majel was the quality control administrator of all productions of the Roddenberry organization. I wonder what the future will hold.

The new Star Trek movie get's awesome reviews, can't wait to see it 08 May - David, we have the best seats in the largest cinema in Denmark, so get ready !

Btw, Enterprise is quite good, get's better and better, we are still only at the first season.

The first season kind of sucks if you ask me, season 2 is probably my favourite of ENT, that's when things actually starts to happen!
