UPN announces Enterprise cancellation
Posted on Thr, 3-Feb-2005
We heard rumblings overnight that "Enterprise" may be about to be given the chop - and seems those reports were right. The cast and crew of the "Star Trek" series are now, officially, out of work.
UPN has issued a press release declaring the Enterprise's final voyage this May. The series finale will air on Friday, May 13, 2005.
"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 Rick Berman, Brannon Braga and an incredibly talented cast for 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 salutes its contributions to The Network and satisfies its loyal viewers."
David Stapf, President of Paramount Network Television, said, "The creators, stars and crew of STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE ambitiously and proudly upheld the fine traditions of the STAR TREK franchise. We are grateful for their contributions to the legacy of TREK and commend them on completing nearly 100 exciting, dramatic and visually stunning episodes. All of us at Paramount warmly bid goodbye to ENTERPRISE, and we all look forward to a new chapter of this enduring franchise in the future."
It's more than likely that series star Scott Bakula will jump ship - excuse the literal pun - to the new "Quantum Leap" redo.
