He's Dead Jim

Well it finally happened. Paramount finally (mercifully) pulled the plug on STAR TREK: Enterprise.

Enterprise (also referred to as the Berman/Braga abortion) will close up shop after just four seasons, the only STAR TREK franchise to hit less than 7 seasons since TOS.

From the press release:

"Star Trek has been an important part of UPN's history, and Enterprise has
carried on the tradition of its predecessors with great distinction," said Dawn
Ostroff, President, Entertainment, UPN. "We'd like to thank (beat-Various)Rick Berman, Brannon Braga and an incredibly
talented cast for (deadening the sensiblities of a once great
franchise-Various) creating an engaging, new dimension to the Star
Trek universe on UPN, and we look forward to working with them, and our partners
at Paramount Network Television, on a send-off that (gets them
out of our hair forever-Various) salutes its contributions to The
Network and satisfies its loyal viewers."

Fan reaction has ranged from breathless relief to psychosis:

Although UPN has now officially decided to not bring back Enterprise for a fifth
season, two fan campaigns are still working to try and change the network's
mind. SaveEnterprise.com and the Enterprise Project have combined to form EnterpriseFans.com, an
organisation trying to raise money to promote Enterprise with an ad in USA
Today.

Maybe we'll change the name of this blog to EuthanizeEnterprise.com
