...with a reminder that "The Cage" air this weekend on STAR TREK REMASTERED.
We saw some rejiggered material from this episode when REMASTERED aired "The Menagerie" - a two parter which used portions of "The Cage" in flashbacks.
This is, however, the first actual broadcast "The Cage" in its whole, stand-alone form. It's cleaned up across the board, including reworked visual effects. A DVD of REMASTERED's third season did contain this iteration of the episode.
Why is it on now? "The Cage", the series' pre-Shatner original pilot, was remastered alongside the rest of TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES - but was held from rotation to dovetail its airing with the release of Abrams' new film. Which, like "The Cage", features Captain Christopher Pike in command of the Enterprise.
Here's an embed of the promo running on stations carrying the show:
The only station list I could find for this series (HERE) seems to be a bit out of date; stations/times have probably changed a bit since its posting - so check your listings/program grids/etc. for LOCAL stations which might be carrying the show.
These new versions should be listed as...simply...STAR TREK (no "REMASTERED"). NOTE: TV Land is airing original versions of the episodes under "STAR TREK", so you can discount listings on that network if you're seeking the remastered versions.
