Star Trek cast blames the bosses

[mojo1701]

I heard that too...in the end, I am glad she spoke her mind, even if, it took two seasons after the start of the show. She got ripped for saying anything at the start, but now as the dust disappears...now some people are starting to grasp the bigger picture. I always like her, not for the body *that was second *, but for her ability to carry the character, many times I rewind to the tape, just to see what she was channeling.

In my books, she had a tough time, but she did try to do her best...kudos to her.

Oh, absolutely.

I remember when Enterprise was first being presented to the public, everyone thought she was there to "be the new 7 of 9." Well, that showed THEM.

Indeed...but as a small after though, she has expressed the idea of reprising the role, if asked. With someone writing the script with the true deceny on what the character should be.

And which reminds me, I have to put up the spoiler thread earlier tommorrow. And try to give a fitting end to the cast.

Blame game. No one listened when it was taking place during the 1st nad 2nd season, the only people with issues were the fans, where were the actors then?

Would you complain on the first few months of your employment? Or are you the type willing to quit your jobs (plural) on creative principle?

That's because Jeri Ryan would object to having her boyfriend, producer Brannon Braga bringing Jolene home.

Good. The prequel movie I have been hearing about is kaput. This is one good thing about the cancellation of the show.

It is the responsibily of an employee to identify problems and issues to suggest ideas to the improvement of processes and efficiency. They even have suggestion boxes if you don't want to be known and offer a cash reward if used! I work for a good place...

But are we talking first few months or years. the best I can think on why one did not speak out was due to contracts that the actors sign have gag orders built in.

Well, for one thing, it is somewhat difficult to give serious criticism of your boss while he's still your boss, no? How often do you make public statements, that are likely to be printed in the papers, that your company is poorly run, hm?

For another thing, over the past four years we have seen signs that the cast wasn't happy about the way things were running. Always phrased delicately, and limited in scope, but objections were made.

It's still up on IMDb. Says it's slated for 2007.

We do a 360 review process, it is a pain but My latest outcry was dealing with raises and bonuses, everyday employees loosing 1% annually from 4 to 3 and yet Chiefs geting a 5% increase from 15 to 20 for same performance rating, just because of title.

I am not the best person to be discussing this I have come to realize, apples and oranges.

Berman talks about fatigue. Well Berman and Braga are the fatigue. This franchise has been in their hands a long time and at every new inception of Trek the audience became smaller as it went. Now I could be wrong, but I have never heard either of them take blame for any of Trek's demise.
