CBS Hosts Ad-Funded TV Series, Incl. Original Star Trek

Posted by timothy on from the whole-new-generation-can-obsess-or-ridicule dept.

eldavojohn writes "On Friday, CBS launched a TV Classics section to their ad based online service. Which means that Trekkies can now watch all three seasons of Star Trek: The Original Series online at the expense of a few commercials. Alongside this CBS is offering all of MacGyver, Twin Peaks and even three seasons of the original Twilight Zone. A side note, they seem to work perfectly fine in Linux. "
