doubleofive said: The issue with that would be every viewscreen, phaser blast, and transporter effect has to be redone, meaning flipping back and forth between 1080p and less-than-DVD quality quite frequently. I don't think seamless branching is an option, you'd have to have the entire series on the discs twice.

This. TNG is simply not in the same situation as TOS. Even TOS space scenes look quite bad on BD: if I want to see the original effects, which I often do, it's less jarring to watch the DVDs.

There's a whole bunch of shows done on video that will never be out on Blu-ray, why aren't we fighting over them?

I'd certainly fight for their release on BD. What do you have in mind apart from the other Star Trek series and of course Bab5?
