Tube me? Tube ME?! No, sir. TUBE YOU!

As it goes with these things, I'm probably one of the last people to find this out. But I think it's important that I mention it. I was just screwing around on YouTube and found that they actually have FULL episodes of Star Trek: The Original Series.

That is awesome.

So you have to sit through an ad before the episodes begin, and ads at every interval where the tv broadcast would have placed them, but that's still amazing. This is where YouTube needs to go. Don't get me wrong, I love to watch 10 minute videos of people playing with their parakeets or 15+ minute videos of teenagers going "OH MY GOD! I'm the only person in the world who's ever experienced pain and sadness. Booo hoo hoo!". BUT, let's be honest. These were only time killers and temporary place holders while the pro-entertainment industry got their heads out of their back sides and started providing us with real content. And apparently, this has finally happened.

Here's the link: Star Trek: TOS
Shatner & Nemoy FTW!
