      While this entertaining documentary talks about the difficulties between Roddenberry and the network, it leaves out the drinking, drugs and womanizing that made working with the series' creator so difficult.

    Great content terrible constant and loud background noise
    Whenever I ever i hear this modern fad for very loud constant background noise I immediately think the producers have a lack of confidence in their product and so do this to distract from a lack of interesting content. But that isn't the case here, the content is great but this noise forced me to turn off before the end of the first episode, which I really didn't want to do.
