Damn folks... I know Enterprise is decidedly inferior to the other Treks (excluding Voyager, which is a whole nother issue of mine), but come on! Let's get real here--there's a terrible lack of halfway decent SciFi series on network TV, and even if it's only in that halfway category, Enterprise fills a void.

Let's push, not to get in cancelled, but improved significantly. let's push to get Hoshi and Travis killed off, since they are basically waste of space on the show, serving no purpose. And as much as I LOVE her catsuits, maybe a little less male chauvenism for T'Pol's outfits, and a little more depth?

But if it goes, what are we left with? How many times can you watch Firefly in a row?

Okay, bad example, but you get the point.

ORRRRRrrrrrr... you could read the other thread that was posted by the SAME guy where we already were talking about all this.. I was flaming for the double post.

If you would have checked the times the two threads were posted you would realize it was not double posted on purpose, but yet another glitch as happens here all the time, just as with TheFop's double post on this thread.

i dunno... most times i have ever seen a double post it is because someone hit submit twice.. so.. ::shrug::

i was just making something up anyway, i personally believe the thread is worth several flames, so if anyone else would like to add to it, i persoanlly welcome it.

If you really want me to go into why enterprise is not worth saving, i will... it will be long and filled with rediculous opinionated trek thoughts and there will be many flames to follow.

but for now, am bored.. so i will spare you.

I don't mean to disillusion you, but there are more "Firefly" and ME fans on the TrekBBS than there are here. If I want an interesting FF conversation, I always find it there before I do here. This is not to diss this site, it's wonderful, it's simply that TrekBBS has way more members there and subsequently more Browncoats. I mean, the Fireflygasm thread over there has more posts than the one here. The new "Angel" threads are always much longer and more insightful than the ones here, only because there are more fans of JW over there.

'Trek as it is now is a joke, and the least used forums at TrekBBS are the Star Trek ones. In fact, the most active forum is the misc Sci-Fi/Fant one. That's where all the Browncoats are; you should check it out.

Actually according to your post it was the opinion of "entire Islamic world" and while I'm on the topic how is it insulting the entire islamic world with racist allegories?

these are the adresses for writing in...

Mr. Brannon Braga / ERE ENTERPRISE
Cooper Building Room 205
Paramount Studios
5555 Melrose Ave
Hollywood, CA 90038-3112
U.S.A.


Brannon Braga has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not Enterprise is cancelled.

As for my opinions on Enterprise I think it's a extremely dull show bnd I definately won't be writing in but I'm also not going to actively try and get it cancelled.

Actually given the current trend it will be replaced with a reality tv show. It is the first Trek I don't watch (though I think it was habit that kept me going during Voyager) but there are worse things that can be put on the air.

Here is the replacement...

Warning, I have been drinking



A reality Star Trek show.

A bunch of Fans get put through classic episode scenarios and you kill off three or four a show.

Be worried if they hand you a red shirt



( Hell, it would be better than Enterprise )

I didn't even have a soul when I did that!"

First, I love Star Trek. I've been a fan since the first run of the original series (yes, I'm that corpsified and old).

I loved TOS and TNG, and DS9 is a favorite, but VOY and now ENT just don't have the writing or characters that are as good as the first three series. I think the producers have run out of ideas. They don't have the passion for the show anymore.

I find it interesting that Joss could make nine characters interesting and memorable in a half season of Firefly, but the writers and producers of the last two Star Trek's couldn't make 7 characters unique and interesting over the course of several seasons. Did anyone really ever care that much about Harry Kim or Tom Paris? Do you really care about Mayweather (the writers obviously don't, because they give him so little to do or say).

As much as I have loved Star Trek, I think Paramount should take a break. Wait a few years and then star fresh with a new series, with new producers and writers.

I'd given some thought to movin' off the edge -- not an ideal location -- thinkin' a place in the middle.
