VonHelton Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 In a new, exclusive interview, executive producer Rick Berman revealed that he was not surprised to learn that Star Trek: Enterprise would not be picked up for a fifth season and said that he expected the eleventh film, still in the early stages of development, to feature a cast that would appeal to younger viewers. In the new issue of the Star Trek Communicator (via TrekWeb), Berman noted that he was pleased that UPN announced the cancellation in February rather than waiting until the television marketing presentations in May, since it allowed Trek's long-time production staff to look for other jobs and allowed the actors to audition for new series pilots. "That was a sort of blessing in disguise, I guess," he said, explaining that he and Brannon Braga called each of the actors and the department heads to break the news after they spoke to executives at the network.

karimw786 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Berman truly sounds like an a$$hole! "Blessing in disguise" my foot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiteShdw Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 It's no secret that he's been wanting out of Trek for a long time. Braga is the worst offender. He wasn't a Star Trek fan when he was hired, and I believe he never really began a Star Trek fan. Braga can kiss my rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrimmer Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Oh how I wish for a world where Trek was run by Nicholas Meyer and the Reeves-Stevens's! Funny how I bet it would not only be more popular with fans, but with the general public and make more money. It's no secret that he's been wanting out of Trek for a long time. Braga is the worst offender. He wasn't a Star Trek fan when he was hired' date=' and I believe he never really began a Star Trek fan.

vystral Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 You know what they say, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade (or throw them at people) Still, I don't appreciate him saying the franchise is "fatigued." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 The Star Trek franchise is and always has been a valuable commodity, I remember when the end of each series came, it was always the same I thought it was the end, but it wasn't. there was always a new series. I mean look at Doctor Who, it's been a while granted, but he's back and kickin' A#$. I believe that Star Trek needs some new blood at the helm, and to be honest I don't really think there was too much they could have done with this premise of a prequel show without doing too much damage to the canon of the show altogether, I mean come on, I really never got into this show that much because I am a stickler for details and too much in this series either conflicts or just plain doesn't make any sense no matter how much they try to justify it, maybe they should have taken "In a Mirror, Darkly" and based a series on that, that way B&B could have destroyed as much as they liked!!!! Enterprise was doomed from the start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaiserDay Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Should have done that instead since it would have been more agreeable to see the tech and all. But I dont think a Mirror Universe series would have lasted that long anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
