Scott Bakula's line delivery have always helped me with my bowel movements. I still believe that Enterprise suffered from a mis-cast in addition to lousy producers.

See I think Terra Prime Part 2 was the real ending of the Enterprise series.  The other episode was more about the ending of Star Trek on TV.  All the various trek references, the elements of all of the Enterprises, when Trip and T'Pol are talking about going separate ways and so on...thats about the audience and the series.

I liked Terra Prime Part 2 much better....but I understand I think.

Ironic that both Trek and Wars are going out with a whimper (I refuse to get my hopes up about EPIII, despite reviews) within one week of each other.

Did anyone else notice that Troi's Betazoid accent had been mostly swallowed up by her native British accent?

It'd be awesome if Coto manages to continue Enterprise on Sci-Fi or something - I'd love to see how he kicks Season 5 off. Is it for sure that it's not gonna happen, tho?

its dead ... permenantely and i also doubt there will be another ST series anytime soon (5 - 10 years)

Enterprise series finale "These are the Voyages"
I am looking forward to the war with the Romulans movie. This would be the first Trek movie without a series as a foundation. If Berman and/or Braga are not involved, I'll DEFINITELY be looking forward to it.

If a series were to ever spawn again, I'd like to see the next NEXT generation resume the Enterprise's voyage.


There are so many possibilites to explore:


It would be nice for Starfleet to begin exploring a new GALAXY via transwarp technology.

TNG had also many stories that were left untouched. I was disappointed when the episode "Conspiracy" (dunno if correct title) was never followed up on. It was the episode when high ranking officials of Starfleet was infiltrated by an alien organism complete with Queen bee. The episode ends with them sending out a signal before their demise.

Perhaps a follow up on the Doomsday Machine and their origins.

Sigh.... it will be awhile till something fills the TV Trek void.

Or the remains of the Star Wars universe. Star Wars does take place in a "galaxy far far away".... but it was "a long time ago"

TOS... galactic barrier? I recall Spock saying that the Doomsday Machine and the V'ger probe originated from another galaxy. Transwarp/transwarp conduits do not use normal space, so any such barrier could be easily bypassed.

The barrier was used in Star Trek 6 or 7, the one with Spocks brother.

As for anothe series, to be honest, I don't see one ever appearing. I think that was it guys, game over.

Actually, they were there at least twice in TOS.  In the 2nd TOS pilot, the one with Kirk rather than Pike, the Enterprise was following up on the path of a lost Starfleet ship, the Valiant, which was last on a mission to go beyond the edge of the galaxy.  When they hit the barrier, it knocked out their engines, but it also gave god-like ESP and special powers to 2 crew members.  Then in the episode you mentioned, when the aliens spoke of the barrier to Kirk, he replied that they'd encountered it themselves.  In another episode, some (realy) alien ambassador in a box was brought aboard by a blind empath played by the same actress that would later play Dr. Katherine Pollaski in TNG Season 2.  A guy who came with them had feelings for her, but she had feelings for the ambassador (even though a method of communication hadn't been established).  When he couldn't have her, he tried to kill the ambassador, but that species (the Medusans) cause madness to all who look upon them, except Vulcans who are wearing a weird orange visor.  When he tried to kill the ambassador, he saw him (it) and went mad, ran to engineering and acted out his madness on the engines and took the ship to someplace that looks just like the afore mentioned barrier.  It took a mind meld between the ambassador and Spock to get them out of there.

The DS9 relaunch novels did follow up on this...
Spoiler:
They're really an earlier evolutionary form of the Trill symbionts.

That makes absolutely no sense to me... the Trills have been around for hundreds of years at the very least by the middle of TNG (when Jadzia Dax is introduced in DS9's launch), but the THG episode with the conspiracy was a scant few years earlier.

Just for clarification, the wierd Alien ambassador was a Medusan, which, like may others of the truly alien races that the federation encountered, vanished after a single episode. It's a pity really, I would have liked to see more of that kind of stuff.

Bah, the Dominion as a whole going evil again really wouldn't make too much sense and sounds like a lame fan fiction story. Disillusioned rebel Jem'Hadar and Vorta warlords could work though.

What would actually be fun though would be a miniseries dealing with the Hur'q and the Klingons. Have a human turn out to be Khaless reborn (probably a main character), who leads the Federation and Klingons against what seems to be an utterly impossible to win war against the Hur'q who have returned.

Then you can have the plotline dealing with how the Klingons eventually joined the Federation.
