Countdown to Cancellation

How many seasons before ENT gets the axe from the network bigwigs?

I say ENT will run a total of 4 seasons.

I think it will last the whole 7 years!

Why not go for fourteen while you're at it?

I say it will last at least four seasons. The Star Trek name will carry it through.

It's ironic that you said that, Zambini, considering the producers intentionally removed "Star Trek" from the title, considering it to be a handicap.

*copies and pastes* Frankly, I have no idea how the show survived this long anyway. The characters aren't very interesting or original, but for some reason the thing that annoys me the most is the bland scenery. If you watch Voyager or TNG, the interior of the ship is very obvious, and I'm sure many trekkies know it like the back of their hands. But with Enterprise (despite the few episodes that it has) it seems the only thing they have is an ugly bridge, a ready room and a whooole lotta hallways.

Well I love Enterprise and I'm sorry that you think it so horrible that it should be taken off the air. Even tho "Star Trek" isnt offically in its title, Eveyone knows that it is part of Star trek... no duh!... It also does draw viewers who want to find out how all of Star Fleet came to be. It will last longer

Have you seen the ratings?

Captain Leah Manzer · **Sat Feb 01, 2003 5:44 pm**

no I havent, and I dont really care what they say.

The network bigwigs do, and they're the ones who decide whether or not the show is cancelled. So I think you really should care what the ratings say.

Captain Leah Manzer · **Sat Feb 01, 2003 5:50 pm**

well i know i cant really influence what the tv producers decided. I just WANT it to go on.

You're in a decidedly exclusive club.

Captain Leah Manzer · **Sat Feb 01, 2003 5:59 pm**

Yeh I'm proud of it too

If only pride translated into money, LOL!

If Enterprise were on Fox, it would be cancelled by now. Only the fact that UPN is so low-rated in general has kept it going.

That's not a slight against the show----though it has its problems, certainly----its a fact of the ratings.

I say it will last 2 more seasons, the ratings are so bad right now, I bet they will just get worse, unless they introduce a new character to bring up the ratings like voyager did by bringing in Seven of Nine.

Frosty · **Sat Feb 01, 2003 8:23 pm**

I don't really have a problem with Enterprise, except the ugly ship and the fact that I hate just about every crew member except Hoshi and Dr. Phlox, but other than that it's a... mediocre show. And I don't think its something they can fix either, because they don't have a very good cast (as I mentioned).

i agree its a different style, pople probally scoarned at TNG when it came out, we are doing the same at ENT, we just need to get used to it

i recon that it will run to season 5 though

it is a little

Kerry · Ensign, Junior Grade Joined: 01 Feb 2003 Posts: 39

im still hoping against hope it will pick up

1/1 · **Sun Feb 02, 2003 3:50 pm**

I think Enterprise is good 2. It mayb a little slow but I reckon it'll pick up soon

Los · **Sun Feb 02, 2003 5:42 pm**

You guys act like UPN has really good ratings. I mean come on. They're showing rehashed series.

Other than Darma and Greg, Smackdown, Enterprise, and Just shoot me, UPN isn't worth a damn.

PrankishSmart · **Mon Feb 03, 2003 1:19 am**

No one knows the future, so I will say it will go for 7 years like the others. Now enough bashing.

Enterprise is Star Trek and it's Scifi. It would be a shame to see Scifi getting replace by good ratings of reality shows *sigh*.

But to the original question, I can't see it being cancelled ... Now only if wishful thinking was worth more than dollars.
