Title: Might be the best 12 bucks I ever spent.

From the clearance bin at Fred Meyer:

Only problem with this is the 'Upgraded' special effects:

All the exterior space shots have been replaced by CGI crapola. So you go from 60's cheesy to mid 90's low budget digital effects and back again.

Example: The space station in Tribbles looks like a stripped down version of DS9.

Did not realize that even cable versions have been heavily edited.

The other thing I didn't really remember:

Newman's character is more than a bit of an ass.

That's one of the best sports movies ever made.
