According to the Amazon.com listing for Star Trek: The Next Generation – The Next Level, the Blu-ray sampler disc scheduled to be released on January 31st, the special features will include a TNG – Season One Blu-ray trailer, a promo for the Star Trek PADD – iPad app and the TNG teaser promo which was released by Paramount last year to promote the release of The Next Level.
As we’ve reported previously, the disc will include three remastered episodes, including the two-part series premier “Encounter at Farpoint,” “The Inner Light,” and “Sins of the Father.”
Description from Amazon:

Kinda disappointing special features. I would have liked to have had at least 1 director or actor commentary.

I’ll buy this. But it won’t be for the bonus features.

Although not a big NextGen fan I have all the TV series episodes and movies (and yes I liked Nemesis). I pre-ordered this as well just to check it out. I was never impressed by “ENCOUNTER AT FARPOINT” but “SINS OF THE FATHER” and especially “THE INNER LIGHT” were good. I will be more interested in DEEP SPACE NINE down the road.
