Sci-Fi Fans Mourn Star Trek Enterprise

It's sad news, at least to this person. The newest Star Trek series "Enterprise" has bit the dust. It seems UPN doesn't feel the program is up to snuff despite millions of Star Trek fans around the globe's near riot fits to the contrary. The big wigs at Paramount Studios are a new breed, a changing of the guard, has left we Enterprise nuts with idiots who aren't really interested in pursuing this series either, according to Scott Backula, (aka Capt. Archer).

When this series was first announced I had my doubts about its success upon hearing that, "Quantum Leap"s, Scott Bakula would head up the lead role as Captain Jonathan Archer in charge of the first starship, Enterprise, which precedes the Captain Kirk era Enterprise. The man surprised me greatly and pulled it off! He did an excellent job.

My only fuss with the show, which is still overshadowed by the excellent performances, story lines and special effects, is the fact it did a lot of changes to the storyline groundwork already established by "Star Trek" - I'm talking the history. At least the writers worked in a cool explanation for why modern Klingons look so different than Kirk's era Klingons. I couldn't have done a better job had I tried.

As I understand it, There will be a final two or three part to "Enterprise" in May ( i think ) and that will be all she wrote. No more Star Trek of any kind, nature or whatever. Unless SPIKE TV or the SciFi Channel can take it over it is dead. Thankfully I recorded on VHS the last season and this season. However, I didn't get the first 2 Seasons, not so much as one episode because where I lived at the time I got lousy reception on Cable Tv. We gots satellite Tv now - which affords a giant leap in picture quality.

Okay - I'll shut up now. Most of you may not even care about Star Trek no matter what form it comes in (you communists) . So until next time I bid you adieu.
