OT: Totally P!ssed off at UPN

[Azselendor]

You know what, no one has given thought to what UPN will replace enterprise with....

I have a brilliant idea! A Science Fiction Fantasy Reality Show.

One of the unofficial reasons for canceling Enterprise is that UPN is catering to a specific demographic and Enterprise is not a show that lends itself well to their target audience.

I think Enterprise is simply too expensive for UPN given its nature to go with the cheaply produced shows they now run. It might have to do with viewer demographics, but in all honesty, it more likely than not has to do with the all might dollar.

Think about it, how many shows on UPN do you watch? I can only think of one, and that is, and soon to be was, Enterprise.

After Enterprise is gone, I will have no reason to watch the UPN. I simply dislike the shows they have, as they do not appeal to me in any way. I prefer my TV entertainment to have a level of education above that of an 8th grade mentality. I also prefer my entertainment to be a bit more diverse and not so heavily focused on one demographic as to exclude all others.

So UPN can kiss my big white puffy bottom as they will not be getting any viewing ratings from this kracker eating honky master.

GRRR...

I'll add my contempt for UPN too!!

and the shows were starting to get better!!

I have a question. Here we don't have such things as UPN or Scifi channel or whatever, except on cable perhaps, which I don't have. There has been some talk about Enterprise perhaps being on another channel. Is it possible that even if such a thing could happen, would UPN ban it because they consider Enterprise theirs, even though they don't want it.

The series is over as of this May. Paramount as already said that it will not continue producing it. So there will be no reviving the show. Its gone.

The general and prevailing mindset of hollywood is that if it doesn't make money and get new fans, then cancel it, burn the sets, and sacrifice the producers to the critics.

Actually, the show can be revived - but by a different studio if paramount can sell the rights. This happened with Stargate when Showtime tried to cancel it. Sadly, Star-Trek licensing is insanely high. The only reason why we had Season 4 is because paramount had to drop the fees to CBS & UPN so low, it was embarassing. The only way it would sell is if the frandchise totally flopped or if the next Big science fiction film makes a huge fortune. Afterall, we wouldn't have more than the Original Star Trek if it wasn't for Star Wars.

Now if anyone has hopes for reviving it, they need to secure the sets & props or atleast the designs for all of that so it can be reconstructed at a later date.
