My title speaks for itself (ok it doesn’t) – ARGH! I am referring to Star Trek: Enterprise and the lack of a next series! Notice I am taking the time to re-write to make this content family friendly. But this is sick and wrong. 40 years Star Trek has been going and Paramount are just going to throw that away?
It must have been going like five series now (there are four listed but I think the next one will be on later this year – or maybe not, I don’t know). All Treks need to run for 7 series! Next Gen did, DS9 did, Voyager did. That is how it works. And will no other Trek take over from it? It actually makes me feel sick to think of it.
I want to cover some other stuff though I am sure I will be back to this subject at a later date. ABC’s teen drama Life as we know it won’t be back. With The O.C. and One Tree Hill in competition, it’s not a huge surprise, though. Desperate Housewives, West Wing, 24, The O.C. and Scrubs will be back. Also Alias, I thought that had already ended. We haven’t had new episodes in the UK for ages.
While I am on the subject of things ending, I am tired of everyone saying episode six will complete Star Wars – it won’t! There are nine episodes. Chewbacca has been on contract for them for ages (probably since the original) and IGN are talking about the storylines for the films.
Ok, screw it; I am going back to Enterprise now. Who does Paramount think they are kidding? Star Trek was cancelled before, they couldn’t keep it down. This time fans got together to fund the show themselves but the studio turned them down. Take the money and finish the series! This is Star Trek! People fluently speak Klingon so don’t even try to tell me it’s just a TV show, it is part of our culture!
