New Star Trek show and old episodes coming to Netflix

Netflix will be the home for Star Trek fans with plans for all of the older episodes and the new series to hit the service very soon.

There's a new Star Trek show coming in 2017 and it's going to be a major event, at least in North America where it's going to stream on CBS video service. For everyone else, it wasn't clear how they were going to get to see it, but now Netflix has come to the rescue.

The streaming giant has signed a landmark agreement with CBS Studios to debut the new Star Trek series in 188 countries around the world, promising to have a new episode live less than 24 hours after its premiere.
