daffydk Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I wonder if downloading it instead of watching it has anything to do with it. As for myself i don't get upn so it's the only way so see it as i am sure others have the same problem. Just a thought, could we be killing it ourselves? :thinking: I dont believe so. If anything, downloading makes stronger fans. I never watched so much ENT before but when I downloaded them, I am interested more in enterprise than before. Same thing for Voyager, I like voyager much more now. That means if I were to sit in front of TV someday, instead of other programming, I would probably watch ST voyager/ENT/TNG whatever is on rather than other shows.. Also if you look at the data for New Movies that get released each week. They keep making new records in the box office. How is it possible that 2004 was a record year for hollywood movies even though downloading new movies was at all time high? IF i had a TV and UPN, I would watch ENT on friday nights regardless of its availability online. I would stil download it later after it showed. But I would not wait hours to download it when I could easily switch to the channel and watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killbenau Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 just when it started to get depth, oh well, now we can look forward to seeing how they send it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtremeskiing Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 hopefully they will end this season well, and tie up all loose ends they open, perhaps decomission the enterprise. do something with tupol and trip etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romulanguy Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 F..., F..., F..., F..., F..., F..., F..., S.... S.... S..... I just can't BEALIVE IT! The 4th season was going so good! The Volcan arc, that Romulan officer, etc, etc, etc.....now, we will never now why klingos didn't have bonier forheads in TOS, etc, etc, etc. Of course there was odd things in Enterprise, like that Temporal Cold War, the Sulibans, the Xindi - none of us ever heard about it, but ok, Enterprise had to make its own mithology - but cancel the show? WTF?!?!?!?! And I was so happy.......I just came from theater......I went to see "The Grudge"........now my night will sux................................................................................................................. :mad: :( :mad: :( :mad: :( :mad: :( :( :( :( :( :( :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSWIceman Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Wow..... And they might as well cancel the UPN network as well, I've never watched anything on it except for Enterprise and Voyager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psheldrake1 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I can't believe that they would cancel a show that won 2 emmys. But what would I know. I'm only a Trekie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NiteShdw Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 Wow..... And they might as well cancel the UPN network as well, I've never watched anything on it except for Enterprise and Voyager. Same here. In fact, Enterprise was UPN's highest rated show on Friday nights. They cancelled the show for that exact reason, Star Trek fans don't watch UPN. For Enterprise to really take off, it should have been on a network that people watch. Remember TNG? It was on NBC in the primetime. No wonder it got such great ratings. While I think it's highly unlikely, I would love to see another network offer to pick up Season 5, maybe Sci-Fi, or FX, or even Spike where TNG is being shown already. I suppose there is still time for a another network to make the offer. Maybe Paramount will drop the price again now that it has already sold the syndication rights. Adding 50 more episodes could bring them a substantial sum from future syndication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libbydude Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Just can't help but wonder if Bakula's ape walk didn't have something to do with it. I'm a die hard so I was able to look past it...but what about those less dedicated? Hmmm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on UPN's website, it looks like they are going to be the new & improved BET Channel.....

If it can be transferred to a channer most of us can get, it'll get good ratings & survive. :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveTrek001 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Too bad Paramount owns UPN and the Star Trek franchise.... HOPEFULLY they will sell Star Trek to a company that will put it to so much better use... ?? SCI-FI Channel??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daedrus Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I don't understand why UPN would cancel a show that they claim isn't getting good ratings (1 mil + viewers on a friday night is damn good) when they put it on friday night.. what the hell are they thinking.. Bah.. i wish some millionaire would start his own tv channel with nothing but star trek.. new series'.. all that good stuff.. he could call it "Trek"...

xtremeskiing Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 if gene was still alive he would never have let this happen. Maybe we will see someone buy out enterprise, im sure paramount will continue production for the right price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 All I can say is one word, but I can't really post it... EDIT: MAybe CBS can pick it up? :mad: If SPIKE or SciFi picked it up, they would make a killing imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killbenau Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 who knows, maybe they may do some mini movies like was previously rumoured. I think that could work well with a show like Enterprise as the stories were being given more attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wahaha Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I knew it was doomed from the first few episodes. After they diverted from that invisible temporal future guy theme, it just got boring. I still say he was a romulan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
