That's awesome news.. I miss seeing TNG on TV.

We get it in Canada on the Space Channel, they also play TOS, Voyager and Enterprise. No DS9 though.

Voyager and Deep Space Nine are playing on Spike right now, who use to play TNG but haven't in a while. TOS is on various channels and Enterprise is on Sci Fi.

I've been wondering, you guys get Spike in HD, right? How do Voyager and DS9 look in HD? Do they just upscale the SD versions?

Spike stopped showing DS9 a couple of weeks ago. What makes it bad is they stopped right in the middle of season 7! :spidey

This makes me very happy.  I was so sad when they stopped showing TNG.  I don't have all of the DVD's so it was cool to have the DVR all loaded up.

YAY!
