Original "Star Trek" off to a solid start in its syndication return

Broadcasting & Cable just ran an article noting that the original "Star Trek" is the top-rated weekly sci-fi series in syndication. The article can be found here: http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/CA6383231.html

Summarizing the key points, last week, "Trek" enjoyed a 1.2 national rating in syndication, compared to a 1.1 for "Stargate Atlantis", a 1.0 for "Stargate SG1", a 0.8 for "Farscape", and a 0.4 for "The Outer Limits".

Not bad for a 40 year old show...and especially considering that it doesn't have the best time slots in all markets, including the nation's biggest market (NYC), where it runs at 3 AM.
 
Sad to say IMO the "newly enhanced" special effects do nothing for the show. It looks like they layed over a Color-forms Enterprise and planets onto the original film.
