I am glad they cancelled it.

B & B have totally ruined star trek. Let it die. And in 10 years or so start it up again set far in the future. And as far away from B & B as possible and as far away from the crap star trek has become.

I agree in that a five to ten year hiatus from the franchise (aside from books, comics, videogames) would likely be very good for the franchise.

I liked the cast of the show and alot of the episodes they have had. I dislike the B & B effect and agree that those two turds should have been given the boot a long time ago after little B weasled his way into the job.

I was pleasently surprised by the series and KNOW that it has great potential, but bad management.

TEN YEARS YIKES NO I'd be 28 dang it and I don't want to wait that long (grrraaaaar) but they said 1 or 2 years on their official statement which is bullcrap beacuse why cancel an entire series just to make a new one 2 years later?

And besides that one of the Bs is going to making "the largest and most highly budgeted star trek movie of all time" soon, let us hope he does not turn it into another Nemesis.

Those two bastards should be canned before that movie is made or they'll just screw it up.

I rather liked Nemesis actually... It was refreshing to see some *** being kicked, rather than kissed, in something bearing the name of Star Trek. Sure it was a response to the all-too-true allegations of Trek wussy-ness that have been coming from fans of other sci-fis for years, but it was still a good flick.

I think the problem with Nemesis was that half of it was quite good and the premise interesting enough, but some poor dialogue/editing decisions really hurt the overall product. However, I'm still impressed at the battle sequence for once - at least they made an effort to match weapon hits with shield facings and related dialogue and things of that sort.

Do you think the Sci-Fi Network would buy Enterprise? It's nice to hope for something like that.
Or maybe a new series called "Klingon Space" A series like that would of course be full of lots of action. That's why we watch isn't it. Phaser fire, interesting tactical situations, monsters, cool ships, naked twister with green orion slave girls. To hell with dramatic situations.

I'm still hoping for a mini-series based on Niven's Known Space books.
