Topic: Let it die.
For the last time! Enterprise is failing for a few simple reasons: The ship looks like a cheap rip-off, the premise behind the show sucks, and re-copied story lines such as the Borg being discovered in the Enterprise time line. People watch Star Trek to not only see good stories but also to see the special effects. They look forward to seeing something new and unseen. Not reliving the past. I'm sorry to say that this is Star Wars fault! The release of Phantom Menace put people into a nostalgic phase which they recovered from right after the movie. People still want to see Kirk beating the bad guys, unfortunately with DeForest Kelly's death that's not going to happen. In all honesty, as a fan I walked away from Star Trek when the Enterprise 1701-D was destroyed. Generations as a movie just sucked! it had two points, Destroy the ship and kill Kirk.

It seemed as if Mr. Berman was re-making the show in his own image, Re-witing history seems to be his main concern. Take Zefram Cochrane (James Cromwell) for example, In the original story line the character was a reclusive intellectual who had walked way from everything after inventing warp-drive. In First Contact he was a drunk hippie dreaming of money and women. Insurrection was a waste of time, film, and money. I watched tem minutes before throwing it out. And the last attempt at humor Nemesis, Data's death (Leaving a cheap way back into the show B-4), Janeway's cameo, the Starfleet fleet that never made it to the screen, Worf's reappearance, Need I go on?

The simple truth is that Star Trek is a sinking ship that has gone under a decade ago, Let it hit the bottom and rest.
