It was just starting to get good too...

Thank you B&B, you suck, you killed Trek, now go die.

That's what you get for creating a series set before all the other Star Treks and then not being original enough to do anything with the original timeframe and relying on a story set after all the other Star Treks instead.

It gets worse.

The new Trek film will be about the Romulan War, but without any existing cast or crew... or afaik ships... or... anything we've seen before.

Basically they're trying to plug into a wider audience and it's going to suck ass as a result.

I'll watch a movie about the Romulan Wars .... as so long as  Berman and Braga haven't laid a finger on it. Rumours going around about Paramount trying to get B5's Straczinsky to do it, but my sources are old.

If only Enterprise followed their 4rth season formula THROUGHOUT ALL SEASONS..... Enterprise could have made it. Now that its competing with Scifi's Friday lineup: StarGate-sg1, Atlantis, BSG I'm not surprised that UPS pulled the plug.

My theory, UPN made an experiement by putting Enterprise on Friday. If it's ratings survived the competition, I think It could have continued. But with BSG stealing the show with a 2.5 nielson rating, enterprise coming in last I believe, it got the boot.

Thing was, personally, I think they should have realised that the ride was over after Voyager, they really should have started looking at options other than Star Trek.

Setting anything in the 'Old' Star-Trek universe and then changing Canon events, like the Ferengi and adding Phasers to the weapons when it was the invention of these that won the Kilngon War almost 100 years later was bound to annoy the hard-nosed fans.

The thing is, if, in 20 years time, they are still trying to pump out a series on the Stargate theme, I doubt I'd be all that interested in that either.

I wasn't that impressed by the series in all honesty. Actually, though, this may be a good thing for the Trek franchise. A break of four or five years before a new series would probably give it a better chance. After all, TNG was almost twenty years after TOS, and it's widely regarded as one of the best series.

Agreed, they need to take a step back, and look where they screwed up. Then get rid of B&B (Why do I always think of Brabham and Bell?).

Season 4 is Star Trek at its best. It's probably best to quit at that point. That whole Xindi-thing killed the series, though it a few pretty cool episodes every now and then - talk about "Twilight".

Season 4 of Enterprise will go down as one of the best Star Trek seasons ever to be sure.  Alongside season 3-4 of TNG and the Dominion War of DS9.

It has potential...

Remeber - no phasers but "just" some coll lasers, no universal translator (the stupidest thing ever), no teleport.

And this laster the whole...what?... ONE EPISODE!!!!!:mad:

Humans weren't uber, they were weak and pitifull and vulcans allmost had a heart attack after they set off into space:D
But that changed too....

And than that Temporal Cold War...it killed the show for me instantly....

so much potential..so much waste...

Since it's picking up now what's the betting that some other network will rescue it from the void?

Only if the pick up all the production costs.  They should syndicate it instead of cancelling.

Mother ****er.  This season has been far better than any Trek I've seen so far.  They'd better be getting together some type of letter-writing campaign; this show has been too good lately to go down like this.  I'm hoping that Les Moonves will step in and take some action about this.  UPN never deserved anything as good as Trek; the networks sucks with a passion.  I'm devastated, if not necessarily surprised, but I hope to God that something can be done.  If this show goes, I have a feeling we won't see any new Trek soon, if ever.

Enterprise was dumb and lame, and, and... and dumb.

The Grim Reaper has been sitting in a car outside the studios beeping his horn, and they ignored him. Now Star Trek is going to die with no dignity because they insisted on propping up its corpse with a lame ass series.

Enterprise did suck for the first three seasons, but this last season has been good thanks to Cotto and it's a shame that the show will die before people have realized that it has redeemed itself.

I didn't mind it....season one and two were pretty unspectacular....but season 3 and 4 have been really good and worthwhile overall.

Am I the only one who really liked the twisting turning temporal cold war thing.  I always thought it was cool.  I just wish they had done it in the future instead of in the past....then you could screw around with more things.
