Enterprise
gets renewed, boldly heading into Season 4!
After
spending most of my day e-mailing and calling every possible person
that I know at UPN and Paramount, I was able to get someone to talk
about the future of Enterprise.
Here's
what I got from a UPN insider...
Has
Enterprise been renewed?
Yes
it has but ratings have to improve if they expect season 5, they will
not renew next year if ratings remain the same. This season will make
or break Enterprise.
When
was the decision made?
Last
week the cast and crew were notified to come back to work on season
4.
Will
it remain on Wednesdays?
No,
not at all, we are tired of getting our butt kicked by Superman. Smallville
is only getting better so we need to change to a Friday time slot
since we are competing for the same demos.
What
can we expect in Season 4?
They
are going to introduce some more original series species and there
might be a species that has been seen on other Star Trek series except
for TOS.
Would
that be John de Lancie's character of Q?
Maybe
not John's "Q" but other "Q's" will make an appearance.
Is
Rick Berman still involved?
Yes,
he is actually flying out to New York with the rest of us to announce
the schedule himself.
What
about the so called prequel film?
It
is moving forward but they have a new team involved with the early
development and a new producer.
Thanks,
have fun in New York.
Don't
mention my name, bye.
