EdmondFrom the Sunday, March 11, 1984 Boston Herald: The indestructible "Star Trek" is once again going to boldly go where no one has gone before. Paramount Home Video plans to release all 79 episodes of the 1966-69 TV series exclusively on a direct-mail-only basis. Subscribers will receive a title a month for $19.95, regardless of tape or disc format. It's a good thing "Trekkies," who have turned a not-too-successful TV series into a billion-dollar industry, are used to waiting around for a good thing. The offering, which will start sometime later this year, will take 6 1/2 years to complete. But the payoff will be a chance to explore outer space again with Captain Kirk (William Shatner) and Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy) in the starship "Enterprise." -WBE ================ Roger Noe ihnp4!ihlts!rjnoe
