UPN and Paramount Network Television have jointly announced that this will be the final season of Star Trek: Enterprise on UPN. [Production will continue until the end of this season, which will finish shooting in March.] The series finale will air on Friday, May 13, 2005.

"Star Trek has been an important part of UPN's history, and 'Enterprise' has carried on the tradition of its predecessors with great distinction," said Dawn Ostroff, President, Entertainment, UPN. "We'd like to thank Rick Berman, Brannon Braga and an incredibly talented cast for creating an engaging, new dimension to the Star Trek universe on UPN, and we look forward to working with them, and our partners at Paramount Network Television, on a send-off that salutes its contributions to The Network and satisfies its loyal viewers."

David Stapf, President of Paramount Network Television, said, "The creators, stars and crew of 'Star Trek: Enterprise' ambitiously and proudly upheld the fine traditions of the Star Trek franchise. We are grateful for their contributions to the legacy of Trek and commend them on completing nearly 100 exciting, dramatic and visually stunning episodes. All of us at Paramount warmly bid goodbye to 'Enterprise', and we all look forward to a new chapter of this enduring franchise in the future."

A prequel to the original "Star Trek" series, Star Trek: Enterprise premiered on UPN on Sept. 26, 2001, and aired for its first three seasons on Wednesdays (8:00-9:00PM, ET/PT). On Oct. 8, 2004, Star Trek: Enterprise moved into its current time on Fridays (8:00-9:00PM, ET/PT). Through its four-year run, Star Trek: Enterprise produced a total of 98 episodes and earned four Emmy Awards.

The whole Star Trek franchise got stale. They need to lay low for while, maybe for 2 years and then maybe make up some new ideas. Star Wars lay low for a while and the fans ask for it so they deliver with new script and good new stories.

This show was a great idea, and i was so excited to see what they could do with it...unfortunately they failed....

I watched it for the first season, but then gave up on it. They just never got into what they could do with the show...

It was about time. Quality was not even close to the original series, TNG, Voyager, or DS9.

Sorry...i guess i mean, what they COULD have done with it...basically the first ever mission to outer space...before Kirk even.

They could have shown us entire new worlds., sort of like the original series. Not all the galaxy-wide politics that didn't exist back then.

I would have just loved to see them find a new planet every week...new aliens...etc.

I dunno, I think they really missed the boat. It could have been really good.

I have heard from many people that this season was actually very good--better than any season of Voyager or DS9. I don't know that for sure, since I don't watch it--but I like the premise.

Thats not a bad concept...the writers spent so much time going forward into the future they could have easily filled up the historical gaps such as 'first contact.' I woulda been all over that.

To bad they didn't have you in the brain storm meetings...

Note to Djaughe: Go Google Jolene Blalock.

Most people tell me that's why they watch the show.

I prefer the 7of9 character instead...

Star Wars lost all of it's momentum from the first three films...Lucas made the fans wait 17 years only to frustrate them greatly with the bland trilogy which wraps up this year.

Then Lucas decided that wasn't enough heartbreak...he had to crush the longtime fans by NOT releasing the original trilogy as seen in theaters by so many.



AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! !!!!!!!
