Indeed, for someone too say that this tech we see on Enteprise is "Not Cannon" is sort of rediculas. I can understand that 22nd century tech is suppose too be much less advanced then 23rd or 24th century tech, but too base it on TOS tech is sort of rediculas.

Anyway, I really have no idea if that is what B&B had originally intended Enterprise too be... an alternate Timeline/Universe. All I'm saying is that I can stomach Enterprise much easier if I think of the show as an Alternate Universe, mostly because the show itself has so many contradictions too TMP, TNG, DS9 and VOY.

Unfortunetly, it will take more then an alternate Universe too stomach the "Akiraprise".

George Takei has made it very obvious that he wants to do a TMP era series based on Captain Sulu and the Excelsior, which he and many fans campaigned for prior to the release of this abomination called Enterprise.

If only Paramount had gone that way, they would finally have another show that always was #1 in ratings as was TNG, and they would not be having the problems with Activision et al.

Here, Here.

I'm all for this.

Some of the folks here wanted to help save the show, so here is how.

Go to this site:

And start writing some letters.

let the show burn and fade in memory of the true fans who cared about the original series, the TMP movies and TNG and it's movies...

Enterprise has done so much to drive Trek fans away that Paramount / viacom should disown the entire series and claim that their money was misappropriated and the episodes went against their ideal of what actual Trek should be...

I support a Bring back kirk and I support another series based off TNG or even another ship in the TOS timeline.. but Enterprise should be squashed like garbage that it already is...

I mean how can anyone claim to be a Trek fan and watch Enterprise with it's blatant disreguard for the set canon precident of the other series.. how can they get away with tech more advanced than the other series have already set as historical canon... it just saddens me so to see what B&B has done with Enterprise after growing up with TOS and watching all the other series as they came out..

Enterprise is the red headed bastard step child of Trek that could only be explained as it being the Mirror universe..... let it die now and fade away.

Tell us how you really feel!!!

Anyways, if I decide to write, it will be to Braga. Demanding that he write an apology letter to all of Trekdom for the abuses he has made on the series.

IMO, he must fire Berman & then quit working on ANYTHING related to Star Trek.

Only then, will I think about forgiving him.

Some how, I doubt it will be a well received letter.

Can Gene Roddenberry be resurrected from the dead?

I wonder if someone somewhere has compiled a list of erroneous anomalies beyween Enterprise and 'real Trek?

I wish them luck. My feelings toward Enterprise are really ambivalent because I neither like nor dislike it. One thing for certain is that while the show is visually appealing, it doesn't give me that sense of excitement that TOS and TNG did. I'll reserve comment on DS9 and Voyager for now, but suffice it to say, I don't have a burning desire to go ring up Paramount and tell them how much they've screwed up by leaving Rick and Brannon behind the wheel.

Enterprise is okay, but it does reek of not having been thought through.

I support you on this a long as it is not another TNG based show I have seen enough of the 24C. I would like to see more of the 23C. to fill in the GAPS and HOLES that were left when TOS was cancelled and into the TMP era and more on the Federation, Klingon war and just plain exploration.I have said it once and I wil say it agian they have gone to warp9 on this series and didn't take slow enough.Lets see how the sc.ew up the next season.They could do Empires at War as a series though and include the battles that takes place in the game how does that sound a game turned into a tv series it work for books why not a pc game.

You forgot about the Tricorders and Communicators they are smaller than in TOS would you think would be bigger and how about those Computer Displays.They look like LCD screens to me oh well another for the nitpickers I am agreeing with you this time Nemesis.

I don't have as much of a problem with the size of some of the tech. They could have gotten by with saying that they don't do as much, except for one thing, they do more. They didn't get rid of most of the technobabble, they still have the capability to track little tachyon particle warp signature things and what not. Lots of stuff they could hardly do in TOS. Trek used to be about the triumph of humanity, about the human condition, not so much anymore. The writing is just sloppy (and that's being kind). There are so many flaws rediculous reasons behind action in B&B's stories it's hardly worth listing anymore.

FFZ · « **Reply #56 on:** April 07, 2004, 12:07:53 pm »

Some folks are forgetting something, it is either 'Enterprise or..........NOTHING.

There isn't going to be another Trek movie, and the only hope of more Trek is to support what is left.

Nobody is more critical then I am of the stupid mistakes they make, but to say 'the hell with it, either do it perfect or not at all' are forgetting that the entertainment business will select "Not at all" most of the time.

The show is all we have left, let it die, and Trek dies.

You are forgetting History

After TOS went off the air.. and when they were building the First Space shuttle.. it was named Enterprise after hundreds of thousands of Trek fan letters flooded NASA and Congress.

after Roddenberry recieved hundreds of thousands of fan based letters, Star Trek : TMP hit the big screen, followed by TWOK, then TSFS, the TVH.. then Rodenberry got paramount to start making TNG...

however there was a big break and resting time between the series...

as such, that is what Trek needs now.. Kill Enterprise as it stands.. claim it is Mirror Universe to cover Canon errors, let it rest for a few years and get new writers and directors and producers to take over the franchise.. return it to Roddenberry's ideal...

as for Trek on TV.. i think Spike TV has that market almost cornered.. Sci-Fi plays TOS and Spike plays TNG and DS9 and will soon be getting Voyager and then TOS...

so Trek is not dying anytime soon.. it is just that the new series sucked so much that it is driving fans away.. a break now is the best thing that could happen...

now for a new series.. if they wanted to do Enterprise in the correct Trek Timeline.. they could use the current cast and use new writers, canonize the technology and add depth to the characters and interaction and feeling instead of trying to sell sex like Voyager did...

I wouldn't rule out Paramount not making a new Trek movie.. on the contrary, they have stated that something new for trek is coming.. whether it is a new series, or a new movie.. it is in the process of planning and / or pre-production stages now...
