I love having an entire live TV channel dedicated to re-runs of old Star Trek episodes
Ok so, I have a little Kodi setup which includes a live tv system hooked up to Pluto so I can grab a bunch of channels for free. Turns out, this includes not one, but two whole channels of just Star Trek!
The first one is mostly TNG and the original series, and the other one (“creatively” called More Star Trek) has mainly Voyager and Deep Space Nine. I like these because I don’t even have to think about what episode to watch, and can just enjoy some Star Trek!
The only downside to this is well, ads lol
As long as the ads aren’t too crazy (I haven’t really watched much on Pluto). Sounds cool to be able to just throw on a random episode without having to decide which one. I often enjoy having one playing in the background while doing other things.
I don’t see it on Pluto Canada, though. Oh well.
It’s pretty great. Our TV came with Pluto and there have been a handful of times where I’ll throw on the trek channel because my wife and I can’t figure out what to watch.
I used to have channel that would only run Sci-fi shows on repeat without any breaks or ads.
Few of the shows that ran on it: ST:TNG, ST:DS9, ST:ENT, ST:VOY, ST:DIS, Stargate: SG1, Stargate:Atlantis, Stargate: Universe, Dark Matter, Expanse,
And they would go in cricles, like one episode of each show. Sometimes they would do a marathon and just play the entire show in few days. NON-STOP, NO-ADS Sci fi goodness. Best TV channel i ever had.
Here is another one I like but was not showing on that tv channel: Killjoys
Pluto TV also has season one of TOS, TNG, and VOY as on demand. I’m hoping they’ll add more seasons and Star Trek series as on demand. It would be nice to revisit a particular episode whenever I want. I’ll often have one of the Star Trek live TV channels going to watch or as background noise. So far, I think Pluto TV’s amount of commercial breaks on the shows and movies I watch there is a tolerable trade off for being free to watch.
Video and sound quality out of Pluto, when I tried it, was beyond unusable. :(
