I'd always felt, that too much pressure was placed on the later series being only broadcast on UPN. But I must say that I do feel some of the blame for VOY is that at times, I personaly felt liek it was the Cpt. Janeway show, and not an ensamble like TNG DS9 nad ENT. But expecting any show to survive and be a hit when it can only reach 60 percent of an audience is a tall ask. I would love to see the ratings for ENT, I have a feeling the last season with Manny Cotto guiding the show would have seen a pick up in viewership. But unfortunately the networks took Star Trek for granted at times, changing it's time slot and days, and putting it on a network heading for disaster. I have said it before and will say it again, if there is to be another pre-qual show, or any show Manny Cotto should be heading it up. 138. xai – April 24, 2007 – Thanks for the link, it was very interesting reading.

On your first paragraph... I don't follow the logic of that. TNG and the following sisters had to compete with those network shows.... not with the shows on their own network. If anything these shows had to be stronger to make up for being syndicated or on the stupid UPN network which had less than 60% coverage of the American TV market at the time of ENT.

Lukas A big reason the later series went longer than STAR TREK is that they were not on major networks. None of them would have lasted as long had they been primetime shows on CBS, NBC, or ABC. As for Next Generation being the most celebrated...I don't think so. Even though I am not crazy (to put it mildly) about this new movie, it does show that Kirk-era STAR TREK continues to have the following for the studio to want to bring it back. The Remastered project is another example of this. I seriously doubt the Next Generation will ever be brought back. re:139. Lukas
