Trouble for Enterprise

Seems that paramount might stop enterprise after its fourth season.. Damn shame I think ! I cant think of many episodes I didnt enjoy.

More here

lol...I wished Voyager would end after its first 2 seasons...but from season four onwards they started pulling out good episodes...

Enterprise will find its feet hopefully...

bizmark · 09-12-2003 11:38pm

i hope they cancelle that sick joke to true star trek fans ....Fire B and B and make a new star trek show !

azezil · 10-12-2003 12:14am

I'm quite enjoying series 3, series 2 was alright, series 1 sucked donkeys

vibe666 · 10-12-2003 12:31am

people seem to forget how long it takes to get these things up to scratch.

tng didn't start to get really good till series 3 and the same with ds9 and voyager. i'm sure enterprise will find it's feet soon. already looking good anyway.

That is true...
I hated the first 1-2 seasons of TNG and still am not too keen on them... The whole men with skirtlike uniform? What was with that? :P

Besides, Enterprise has been a lot better this season. Hopefully it might keep it up... With B&B behind the steering wheel though Enterprise would might find taking a bigger plunge.

You dont think im a true fan ?

Didn't know season 3 had started. When's it on?

I remember they had to get rid of those horrible uniforms from TNG seasons 1 &2 because they were giving the actors back problems

azezil · 10-12-2003 1:22pm

Started in the US

Boberto · 10-12-2003 7:59pm

Yup but it starts on Sky One on Jan 5th at 9pm, continuing each week afterwards at 8pm according to Sky Viewer Relations...

bizmark · 10-12-2003 10:22pm

You dont think im a true fan

If you watched and liked Tng or DS9 i consider you a true fan (seeming they where the best of the best)

Xithus · 11-12-2003 1:11am

You really should give enterprise more of a chance.. maybe season3 il' change your mind. Only one bad episode so far.

Woden · 11-12-2003 1:13am

if its starting at 9pm on sky one i'd say thats due to them reshowing the cliffhanger from last season at 8 iirc they did that last year also. looking forward to the new season hope it isn't cancelled as people mentioned the star trek shows don't tend to be great in the first few seasons

bizmark · 11-12-2003 3:47am

You really should give enterprise more of a chance

people always say that ........But i have given it 2 year's in which time all of maybe 2 episodes where any good and many more just ****s all over the star trek time line ......It took NOTTING like 2 year's for me to like Tng ds9 and voyager

If they get rid of Enterprise they will replace it with a new trek show.....which COULD be better and maybe produced by someone with 2 brain cell's to rub together

Stark · 11-12-2003 10:40am

They've lost it at this stage. They're trying to make "Trek for the masses" and in doing so they're giving a big ****-you to their current fans.

I mean even half the writers are non-trek fans.

Woden · 11-12-2003 1:49pm

well least the folks above are saying good things about the 3rd season so i'm looking forward to it. The only way it up

bizmark · 11-12-2003 9:41pm

The only way it up

Or moved to friday then cancelled after the 4th seasion

(100th ep is important apperently)

Woden · 11-12-2003 9:45pm

ye of little fate......

i will mock thee when we are discussing how good the 6th season was and anticipating the 7th

bizmark · 11-12-2003 9:51pm

will mock thee when we are discussing how good the 6th season was and anticipating the 7th

Id be the first to admit if the 3th season is good and will happly look forword to following season's if that is so.........However i still dont see enterprise ever draging its rateings back up (though on saying that their not "low" 4,2 million a ep compeared to 2 million for stargate sg1) Once you lose viewer's you dont get them back normaly.

ALSO the fact that they have f-ed up the history of ST so bad will piss me off for a long time to come

Woden · 11-12-2003 10:05pm

i thought someone mentioned recently thought that ratings where good for season 3. i expect a lot hangs in the balance of how this season goes.

bizmark · 11-12-2003 10:09pm

id say so ....if this seasion goes well you never know......if it turns bad enterprise is dead

Woden · 11-12-2003 10:14pm

i am looking forward to the start of the third season though i enjoyed the cliffhanger last season and i've seen some info in the monthly star trek mag about the xindi and how they consist of like 3 different races or so its all quite interesting.

bizmark · 11-12-2003 10:17pm

Ya i seen many a picture of the Xindi their AMAZEINGLY well done though thats no supprise comeing from enterprise's SFX guys tbh

Kevok · 11-12-2003 11:20pm

Enterprise is Voyager redux, really it is. It's no wonder either, from watching the special features and interviewson the DS9 dvds the only reason that DS9 was as good as it was, was simply because it had little to no interference from Rick Berman and Brannon Braga. Ira Behr was the last good thing to happen to Trek.

His involvement in season three of Ent really shows.

bizmark · 11-12-2003 11:23pm

i didnt know he was back!....thats fecking great!!! is he staying on ?

It takes Star Trek that long, not other shows. Voyager never got "really good" either. Really toss at times, maybe. Hopefully Enterprise will be canned soon enough so the large funds it recieves can be allocated to more deserving shows.

Kevok · 11-12-2003 11:39pm

No not full time, he's doing 'The Twilight Zone' at the moment.

But during season 2, Berman swallowed his pride and realised Ent was in trouble, so he had a meeting with Ira to discuss possible directions for Enterprise, the season 2 cliffhanger and season 3 was the result.

Vader · 11-12-2003 11:50pm

I thik enterprise is already better thanvgr ever was and its getting better

The recent Thanksgiving episode got some of the lowest *ever* ratings for Trek. They need better ratings to justify their budget - Stargate: SG-1 is a better commodity currently as it costs a hell of a lot less to produce and does very well in syndication.

I despised 'Enterprise' after wasting a whole damn year on it when it began. I've been told from a few sources that S3 is worth watching though so I may give it a chance...

bizmark · 12-12-2003 12:15am

Thats easely explaneable seeming most yanks would be makeing themself fatter and not watching enterprise

yeah i think that needs to be taken in context also with it being thanksgiving and all. for example did other shows suffer a similar percentage drop?

have to say though it is an indication of casual fans. i'd probably be watching enterprise no matter what day it was on

off topic kevok are those DS9 dvd's good?
