The "new" UPN demographic...
By Jadzia-Dax

It's interesting that I had been reading how UPN was slowly moving towards attracting a female demographic, along the lines of Dawn Ostroff's former job as head of Lifetime.

Yet when it comes to ENT, rather than broaden the demographic to include women, they would rather leave it swinging out there to remain with this fictious "male" demographic focus? Certainly TOS and TNG had a BROAD audience in order to pull in the numbers. I can't understand this idiotic "all or nothing" attitude with respect to Trek. It has always appealed to both men and women, boys and girls and now they have gone on a crusade to chase away the females, and won't even bother to try to embrace them instead - ie., be inclusive as Trek has always been about.

It must be the drugs they are taking. Image

And from above:

"He's done it for about fifteen years and I think he's tired," Keating says. "It bodes quite well. [Manny Coto]'s got a good eye for it, and he's certainly a good writer, and with Brannon overseeing the whole thing, I think we could come up with something quite interesting."

ANSWER: Um no, Braga has to go. This show is absolutely going in circles and is so twisted around that it doesn't know whether it's coming or going and the show-runners don't seem to give a damn. It is like they are biding time until their contracts run out in 2006. Meanwhile, they take the franchise down with them by this type of benign neglect.
