Why is Star Trek TNG getting a Blu-ray release, but shows like The X-Files aren't?
-
Like The X-Files, Star Trek TNG was shot on film, but edited on 480i, so the master copy of each episode is on 480i. Recently, CBS has stated that TNG will be getting a Blu-ray release, as well as either new effects or upscaled. They had to decide. Anyways, what I'm not really sure about is, if The X-Files was just as popular and done the same way as TNG (shot on film edited on 480i), why hasn't it gotten a Blu-ray release?

Answer:
"The fact is, X-Files is SMALL POTATOES compared to Star Trek." I see what you did there ¬_¬ Anyways, OP, I would love to see Blu-ray X-Files. There were rumors YEARS ago like this one: http://www.bit-tech.net/news/bits/2005/08/04/fox_blu_ray/1 But I don't think it's ever really gonna happen. Especially now cause IWTB sucked so much.

"if The X-Files was just as popular and done the same way as TNG (shot on film edited on 480i), why hasn't it gotten a Blu-ray release?" The key word here is "if". The fact is, The X-Files isn't and never will be a popular as Star Trek. Think about it. When is the last time you went to an X-Files convention? Also, while Star Trek has been around for more than 40 years, The X-Files was only around for 9 years. And let's not even get into spin-offs. The fact is, X-Files is small potatoes compared to Star Trek.
