G4 To Acquire Original Series, TNG Syndication Rights

Comcast's G4 network is near to acquiring US syndication rights for the original Star Trek and Star Trek: The Next Generation.

CNN reported on the deal, which would give Comcast the opportunity to greatly widen the appeal of its G4 network, currently targeting video gamers.

Trek still in demand! Although G4 messed up its purchase of TechTV, it will be hard to mess up reruns.

If you click through to the CNN story, it indicates that it was license through Paramount Domestic Television. I wonder if this is any indication where Star Trek will end up in the Viacom split.
