a must have for sci-fi fans

Who doesn't like Star Trek TNG. Any Sci-fi fan loves the series as much as they love the other great sci-fi series. This item is the complete first season DVD set. It contains all the episodes plus some extras on the last disk such as development, episode ideas, cast comments, and many other things.

The complete first series dvd box is compact and tight easily fitting in any DVD case with similiar products. I did
have a slight problem with the layout of the first season box. Its a dual foldout box, strangely designed and not
that sturdy. It holds the dvd's in with the basic plastic center plug (its not a sleave box) and they are tight and secure. The design of the dual foldout box makes simply picking a episode dvd annoying. Instead of just opening the
box and picking your dvd, you have to unfold it all the way first then pick it, then fold it back. Bad design.

But overall who cares about the box. The episodes are great, the show is great, and the quality of the episodes were great.

As a last note, when you want to buy the seasons or complete seasons of Star Trek TNG, make sure to do your homework with pricing. Many times the individual seasons are cheaper than the complete set, and sometimes they are not. When I purchaced the individual seasons seperately they were 35 dollars each, about 100 dollars cheaper than
buying the complete boxed set. And I see currently the individual seasons are 50 dollars each. So watch your prices and buy smart.

The Next Generation Season 1

A good start with the 1st series here. Some very good episodes a few that are not quite as good but genrally good. The tasha yar character is a seems a bit eager (she get's a bit to extreme sometimes) to blow things and Diana Troi can get a bit annoying sometimes (and why is she alway's on the bridge when she is a councellor). It start's the Next Generation of well but it's still trying to find it's feet. It's a good cross between complete sillyness of the orginal series and the less silly DS9 (or real world). It's a very good series and well worth the money.

Start Trek The Next Generation - Season 1

Fab! Packaging is great and the quality of the DVDs is superb! Very happy with it and I'll be getting the following seasons. I'll be getting them individually due to cost since it's a bit easier to foot the bill for an individual season every few months as opposed to the complete series. Plus, I read a few of the reviews for the green complete series box set and many said the packaging was cheap. The silver individual season boxes are great packaging with an episode/disk list on the front cover and each disk has the episodes listed on them as well.

Last of the 'Old School' Science Fiction series

A must have for Star Trek fans big and small. (along with the other six seasons)

The individual seasons have very attractive packaging and look great in the bookshelf.

After watching four seasons of Star Trek: Enterprise, I needed more. I went ahead and purchased everything "Star Trek" I could find on Amazon.com.

Like most people I was not able to watch every episode over the seven years stretch that this series aired. Catching an episode in re-run here and there just wasn't good enough. So, I bought this and I am very glad I did.

Season One is a bit of a shock to my memory. There are special effects in this that will definitely need to be cleaned up and digitized in future commerative releases. A clay-mation tick in the episode: "Conspiracy" is just too funny to see after watching the special effects of the most recent Star Trek television series: Enterprise, and the reboot movie.

The first year was from 1987 -- almost 25 years ago! A lot of the episodes can be watched without any "shout out" moments. But, there are those times when you just have to ask why they didn't use the transporter in that situation like they did in the later episodes?!

This is a great set and true to when it first aired, flaws and all. An excellent production.

For those fans who are purists, this is as pure as a television series copied onto DVD can get.

Excellent acting and writing and good quality packaging

After all of these years it has been great to get back to the STNG early shows and see the crew members getting to know each other. Great action and humor.
