Does anyone know when ST TNG is on, and on what channel? Also, the original series? I don't have cable, but I want to watch!

You can watch the original series on either hulu or youtube

I hate watching on the computer. I like it on TV. Is it not on anymore? :(

Never mind, I found it. Weeknights 11pm channel 20. No original series star trek in our area!

"I hate watching on the computer. I like it on TV"

So, what are you saying? You like the ads targeted to "tv viewers"?

Granted, there are ads on hulu and youtube, but there are less of them and they are targeted to a higher level of life than the ones on broadcast TV.

Back when broadcast TV was worth watching, cigarette and booze ads funded the programming. Now we have prescription drugs and parasitic laywers.

Internet video now = golden age of TV back in the 50's and 60's. Watch it quick, it won't last long.

I always like to rent the videos and watch them a bunch at a time.

Or as someone else said, you can watch them online ... in my case, I bought a super quiet Mac Mini and attached it to my 52" LCD and it looks like watching a DVD. Maybe slightly slower but damn good. I don't know how they do it but it is fantastic. Lost, Fringe, V, just about anything on TV you can find somewhere on the Internet - for free.

Sometime Hulu offers you the chance to watch a whole show commerical free if you watch one large commercial at the beginning.

Reserve the series by the season at the library. Original and NG are on video now. You can also get them at Netflix.
