Brannon Braga on Killing Enterprise

shayward writes, A TGL report here has a quote from Brannon Braga in response to fans that say he killed Enterprise with crappy writing. \”There’s a small but vocal group of people who have been lambasting me ever since \’Next Generation\’.\” I would like to point out that his writing and producing weren\’t always as bad as they were for Voyager and Enterprise.

Brannon Braga Speaks at Claremont College

writes, Read the transcription here.

Among other things, Braga feels that Star Trek is
still about examining the human condition, that
Enterprise is a character-driven show that maybe
didn’t click with audiences, and is generally
uncertain about why Enterprise failed.

Braga also claims to have a photographic memory when
it comes to continuity and knows all of the
episodes.
I suppose the latter may be possible.
There is a subtle but important difference between
ignorance of continuity and blatant disregard for
continuity.

Trekkers will be delighted to know that the fourth
series (or “season” if you prefer) of Star Trek:
Enterprise
starts on Sky One at 8pm on Tuesday 08
March 2005. “Storm Front part 1” is followed by the
first series finale of Stargate: Atlantis, with the
Wraith launching an assault on the Atlantis city.

Space entrepeneurs donate $3m to Save Enterprise fund!

Damien
writes, So much for not flogging the dead
horse… the Save Enterprise fund has received a $3
million pledge
from three anonymous donors from
the new private space flight industry. The donors
state that “We think Star Trek and especially its
latest incarnation, “Enterprise” is the kind of TV
that should be aired more often”
and “The
people airing this kind of TV have a responsibility;
inspiration.”
Too bad they didn’t add a clause:
get rid of the current management (BnB).
