For the past two weeks, I have missed enterprise!!!!! They have been putting on BASEBALL GAMES!!! It is not fair! If there is anyone near Maine, I might be able to send you $ for a copy of the last two episodes. I am so annoyed. Sorry about starting a new topic for this, I just didnt want to read anything about the episodes, before I got to see them! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!

Have you checked TVGuide and other sources? There could be weekend reruns. I know there are here in Pittsburgh, and there were back near Boston.

Or you could organize a letter-writing campaign to your UPN station. Point out things like the fact that Ent was on the cover of entertainment weekly, etc.

Yeah, I think all UPNs are doing reruns. You should check on it.

They do get shown again on Saturdays, as a filler. They never show the whole episode. It totally sucks.
As for the other idea, that may be worth looking into, thank you.

You're lucky! If I miss another one, I'm going to do something drastic! As soon as I figure out what that is.

No problems. It's just that the local Fox channel takes it over whenever there are games or anything. They think we'd rather see that.

Watching games is boring enough. Watching them and KNOWING THAT YOU'RE MISSING ENTERPRISE....I just can't imagine how I'd deal with that....

My UPN station is pretty good. No games or anything but the tapes sometimes stop for a long time right in the middle of an episode and they don't actually try to hurry and put it back on. Ya know like if it breaks or sumthing? Oh and I don't know about up there in maine but in Florida there are re-runs on sunday night at 9:00 pm and they show the whole thing.

I know just what you mean. In the middle of "Broken Bow" the screen just went black. Luckily, it went back on after only 20 seconds or so. All I missed were the alien dancers.

Occasionally the screen gets staticy for a few minutes also....

I saw that it went to a cpu screen. What I don't like about my UPN is they do alot of emergency broadcasting tests in the middle of show like endgame.

My local UPN station had the same prob during "Broken Bow" at the same part with the dancers. You say you are from Pittsburgh so I assume it was a problem from the sattelite end.

I'm sorry, that really has to suck. Don't worry, i missed last week's show b/c i was on vacation visiting my friend in El Paso and they don't really care much for Star Trek. Oh well, i'd rather spend time w/ my friend. I never get to see her anymore... she's on the opposite side of the country.

See, on my UPN channel, they have STV on at midnight and i LOVE it b/c there are very very few comercials which is WONDERFUL b/c comercials are one of my pet peeves. I mean seriously. There are only like2-3 comercials before it returns to the show. Sometimes there's only 1 between shows, but those are usually those longer comercials selling a c.d. of something. I still love it though!!! I wish all comercials were short like that.
