== US releases ==
  +
Unofficial releases of episodes in the United States began in the late 1970s, with photo developer/video rental outlet Fotomat among those who issued episodes on [[VHS]] and [[Betamax]]. In 1980, [[Paramount Home Entertainment]] (then known as Paramount Home Video) released ten selected episodes on VHS in the United States, in five volumes of two episodes each: {{e|The Menagerie, Part I}}/{{e|The Menagerie, Part II}}, {{e|Amok Time}}/{{e|Journey to Babel}}, {{e|Mirror, Mirror}}/{{e|The Tholian Web}}, {{e|The Trouble with Tribbles}}/{{e|Let That Be Your Last Battlefield}}, and {{e|Balance of Terror}}/{{e|The City on the Edge of Forever}}. A special one-off release of {{e|Space Seed}} (Paramount Gateway Video VHS 60040) occurred in 1982 to tie in with the premiere of {{film|2}}. The complete series was finally released over the course of the late 1980s, including both versions of {{e|The Cage}}, first with Gene Roddenberry's workprint version, along with an introduction by Roddenberry produced especially for the VHS release in 1986, and the full-color version of the episode in 1989. The workprint version, complete with Roddenberry intro is available on Volume 40 of the original DVD releases and the TOS Season 3 DVD set. The color version was also released in 1995 on a tape by Paramount with {{e|Where No Man Has Gone Before}}, as part of a four-tape boxed set featuring the pilots for the first four series.
   
  +
Paramount reissued the VHS tapes in 1993 with new packaging and collectible [[Skybox]] trading cards for each episode.
==Releases==
 
:''Release dates for the original releases up to volume 22 are not known. Dates in italics are approximations based on release frequency, where no exact date is available. UK products are normally released on a Monday.''
 
   
  +
CBS Video Library/[[Columbia House]] also issued tapes of the series in 1986, featuring two episodes per tape. For most of the run of the library releases, the introductory volume was {{e|The Menagerie, Part I}} and {{e|The Menagerie, Part II}}.
===Original release===
 
The original CIC Video release was continuous, and did not separate out seasons. Consequently, the final volume containing season 1 episodes also began the season 2 release, and the same applied to the final season 2 volume.
 
   
  +
Paramount fully phased out releases of the series on VHS by the end of the 1990s-early 2000s.
  +
  +
==UK releases==
  +
Specific episodes of ''The Original Series'' were first released by [[CIC Video|CIC-Arena Video]] in the early 1980s. The series in its entirety was released twice in the [[Star Trek VHS releases in the UK|UK]] by [[CIC Video]] - a two-episode-per-tape release from {{y|1988}}-{{y|1991}}, and a three-episode-per-tape release from {{y|1996}}-{{y|1998}}. The original releases were deleted on {{d|29|March|1996}}.
  +
  +
:''Release dates for the original 21 releases are not known. Dates in italics are approximations based on release frequency, where no exact date is available. UK products are normally released on a Monday.''
  +
  +
===Original release===
  +
The original CIC Video release was continuous, and did not separate out seasons. Consequently, the volume containing the final episode of a season will also have the first episode of the next season.

Each episode in the series features an introduction by either [[James Doohan]] or [[George Takei]] or [[Walter Koenig]]. This edition made use of new transfers of color corrected and cleaned-up footage, at the time called "[[TOS-R#Early Star Trek: The Original Series remastering|digitally mastering]]", originally done four years earlier for the Japanese [[LaserDisc]] editions ''[[Star Trek - Log 1|Star Trek: Log 1]]'' - ''[[Star Trek - Log 3|Log 3]]''. Released at the beginning of the [[DVD]] age this edition only saw a limited production run, in anticipation of the first DVD release of the ''Original Series''.
Each episode in the series features an introduction by either [[James Doohan]] or [[George Takei]] or [[Walter Koenig]].

Revision as of 22:00, 3 September 2014

Template:Realworld Star Trek: The Original Series has been released on VHS in multiple countries since the technology was developed.

US releases

Unofficial releases of episodes in the United States began in the late 1970s, with photo developer/video rental outlet Fotomat among those who issued episodes on VHS and Betamax. In 1980, Paramount Home Entertainment (then known as Paramount Home Video) released ten selected episodes on VHS in the United States, in five volumes of two episodes each: "The Menagerie, Part I"/"The Menagerie, Part II", "Amok Time"/"Journey to Babel", "Mirror, Mirror"/"The Tholian Web", "The Trouble with Tribbles"/"Let That Be Your Last Battlefield", and "Balance of Terror"/"The City on the Edge of Forever". A special one-off release of "Space Seed" (Paramount Gateway Video VHS 60040) occurred in 1982 to tie in with the premiere of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. The complete series was finally released over the course of the late 1980s, including both versions of "The Cage", first with Gene Roddenberry's workprint version, along with an introduction by Roddenberry produced especially for the VHS release in 1986, and the full-color version of the episode in 1989. The workprint version, complete with Roddenberry intro is available on Volume 40 of the original DVD releases and the TOS Season 3 DVD set. The color version was also released in 1995 on a tape by Paramount with "Where No Man Has Gone Before", as part of a four-tape boxed set featuring the pilots for the first four series.

Paramount reissued the VHS tapes in 1993 with new packaging and collectible Skybox trading cards for each episode.

CBS Video Library/Columbia House also issued tapes of the series in 1986, featuring two episodes per tape. For most of the run of the library releases, the introductory volume was "The Menagerie, Part I" and "The Menagerie, Part II".

Paramount fully phased out releases of the series on VHS by the end of the 1990s-early 2000s.

UK releases

Specific episodes of The Original Series were first released by CIC-Arena Video in the early 1980s. The series in its entirety was released twice in the UK by CIC Video - a two-episode-per-tape release from 1988-1991, and a three-episode-per-tape release from 1996-1998. The original releases were deleted on 29 March 1996.

Release dates for the original 21 releases are not known. Dates in italics are approximations based on release frequency, where no exact date is available. UK products are normally released on a Monday.

Original release

The original CIC Video release was continuous, and did not separate out seasons. Consequently, the volume containing the final episode of a season will also have the first episode of the next season.

Re-release

Each episode in the series features an introduction by either James Doohan or George Takei or Walter Koenig. This edition made use of new transfers of color corrected and cleaned-up footage, at the time called "digitally mastering", originally done four years earlier for the Japanese LaserDisc editions Star Trek: Log 1 - Log 3. Released at the beginning of the DVD age this edition only saw a limited production run, in anticipation of the first DVD release of the Original Series.

  2. 2.0 2.1 2.2 Curiously, the cover for this volume displays a double certificate, indicating that episodes were rated for releases separately, instead of as a single volume.
  3. A three episode tape to end the series. This was likely more profitable to produce and market than a single episode release.
  4. Two episode tape.
  5. In the case of sets, the certificate is over the set as a whole (unless stated otherwise).
  6. This release also included a trailer for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
  7. Originally released unrated, the volume received a rating after 1985.
  8. This release was the first time this episode could be seen in the UK - the BBC having banned it from its original airing in 1971 (the episode would not be seen until 5 January 1994).
