Background information
Edit
Some of the special features of this DVD were done by Andy Mangels who, for several years, did special features for other DVDs. He reflected, "When Paramount did the TAS series on DVD, I proposed to do the special features. They passed, but I did end up providing a lot of material they used for their set and documentary." [1]
The release artwork on the DVDs feature main characters of the series, in animated form:
- Disc one - James T. Kirk
- Disc two - Spock
- Disc three - Montgomery Scott
- Disc four - Leonard McCoy
