Default OT: Totally P!ssed off at UPN

UPN has announced that they are cancelling the only show worth watching on their stupid Reality and "overly ethnicized" schedule, they are cancelling Star Trek Enterprise just as it is finally hitting it's stride

Go to startrek.com to see the full report, and then go to UPN to file a complaint in their "feedback" department if you want to save ENT.

Awww crud. And I was just going to come on here and post how pleased I was with the latest episodes. After my complaining about the lack of continuity and ignoring trek history this story arc with the Andorian war with the Tellarites, and how the Romulans are interfering, but you don't actually see the Romulans. It's pretty cool.

Can't say that I am sad to see Enterprise go... it is a far worse blemish on the face of Star Trek than Voyager ever was.

Hmm... startrek.com doesn't seem to load at all now that I have blocked their malicious cookies. Oh well, guess I won't be visiting that site, ever.

I like enterprise much better then voyager because the cast is far more human than those stupid goody goody federation types from VOY, and aside from Seven the 5th 6th and early 7th seasons were pretty lame. yet they cancel ENT just as it is getting into stride? that's stupid.

Please, please, please let them finish the "mirror, Darkly" before they close shop. I would check the site but it is unavailable. probably brought down by all the people checking.

The entire 4th season will be finished prior to the cancellation and hopefully another network picks this up

I got the site, and it ends a month after "The Mirror, Darkly" so that's ok . Interesting that in the announcement it says they look forward to more chapters in the franchise.

Like maybe one that I get good reception, and also one that actually ADVERTISES! *Gasp* Imagine that. Between UPN's lack of advertising and their moving the show all around the map, I never knew when Enterprise was on.

We saw this coming two years ago. UPN is just a horrid network. Enterprise would have been far more popular if it had gone into sindication like STNG and DS9 had. I love Enterprise and hate to see it go. Even with all of the gay *** violation of established Trek history, it was a good series to watch. In the end they could have explained it all away as a temperal shiver or something.

This is what happens when you let people who hate TOS and STNG run things. Oh well. UPN is just a horrid network.

And on a side note. The quality of Stargate has begun to slip with its last few episodes. I am sickened at how the Sci-Fi channel has adversily influenced the production quality of Stargate SG1. These last few episodes just lack the finished feel that the series has pioneered. They seem more like the fast paced, poorly editted Andromeda series than they do SG1.

UPN Sucks raw butt, that's a fact, but I wish that Enterprise would find a new home.
