[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 5666577, member: 177"] Actually, they make a lot of sense, in the context of another potential series. Trek has become akin to modern mythology, or Shakespeare. It was only a matter of time before the iconic characters were taken on by other actors. The fans are willing to accept a movie with a clear continuity break. That's easy to wrap a mind around. However, I don't think the fans are ready for a TV series that has a similar continuity break. And, IMHO, Enterprise was the greatest wasted opportunity the property has ever seen. No, it didn't fail because of franchise fatigue. It failed because B&B didn't realize what they should do with it. Manny Coto knew, and from the point they handed over the reigns to him to deal with movies, the difference is palpable. it was merely to little, too late. I think if Coto had the reigns from the beginning, the show would have been a solid success. [/QUOTE]
