Star Trek: Enterprise has been canceled

[Knightfall]

I thin it was destined to be cancelled. Too bad, the show seems better this year with more classic Trek storylines. Oh well, nothing to do but keep watching Battlestar Galactica.

As for Trek on TV, I think the world needs a break from the franchise. A couple of years. They need to put together a different show that will appeal to fans and that doesn't re-write history. Perhaps a show about the exploits of the USS Relativity, in the far future. Maybe a classic era Star Trek animated show set in the time of Kirk, Spock, and McCoy, but that would focus on stories that involve the entire fleet, multiple worlds, and overlapping plot lines.

An Animated Star Trek Anthology TV Series, if you will.

Whatever they do next, however, they need to take some time and think about it. Don't just slap something together in order to have something Trek on the air.

Anyway, just my two cents.

Cheers!

Yeah!...and they could have Kziniti & Slaver artifacts and....


...nah on second thought that would just be silly.

I had heard that they were going to cancel it before this season, but struck a deal for one more so they could syndicate it.

And I have heard two conflicting rumors about the future: one said they were going to take a break from Star Trek for a number of years, the other said they were working on a new show centered around StarFleet Academy (that was quite a while ago, don't remember where I heard it).

Personally I would vote for a break. Each successive series since DS9 has done less for me than the one before. Maybe a little absence to make the heart grow fonder would be good. That and some new blood willing to shake things up a little.

I know that talk about a "Starfleet Academy" series has been going around forever. In fact, I think it was one of the ideas that was supposedly being considered for the series that eventually became Enterprise.

Sorry about that.

Watch Battlestar Galactica.

They're taking a break. They've pretty much said so. There's been a change in
Paramount's top management and they're reshuffeling. They do not seem to have
made any decisions on the franchise's future.

It's sad, but as much as I love Star Trek, it's been on life support since Voyager and it's time to let it rest. There is nothing new, engaging, or inspiring about the show anymore; all they do is rehash the same old tired ideas over and over. And I blame Rick Berman. He made Star Trek simultaneously hip and pedestrian.

I was really excited when this first started, especially because Scott Bakula was going to play the captain. Then I watched it. He was awful. He acting was so wooden they could have replaced him with a marionette and no one would have noticed.

I watch the first season and a coupe of episodes of the 2nd and never looked back. I'll rent the series DVDs from Netflix when they come out later this year, just to see what I missed.

Just as it was starting to get good, too... Oh, well...

I really do think its time for it to take a break, perhaps do some movies about another time in the Trek universe (Earth-Romulan war, Starfleet academy, for example). Maybe a pseudo-trilogy (by that, I mean 3 movies back-to-back that run together like Star Trek II, III and IV).

I think what spelled its doom when they've explored a lot technology-wise. I mean, Warp 10 being max? 29-th century Time Travelers? BAAAAAAAD.

I kinda like the idea of a Star Trek show dedicated to the academy. They could focus on the character aspect and the ramifications from the homecoming of Voyager and maybe even a few vetrans of DS9, VOyager and TNG would be willing to participate.
