When I got back from DC, I had to catch up on all things geek, including the news that Enterprise is being cancelled. Given its lackluster performance and so-so writing, this didn’t come as a complete shock. I’ve said before that the franchise should be put to bed for a while and brought back with a fresh vision (and better writers). One of the great things about the original series was that it had people like Harlan Ellison and Theodore Sturgeon writing scripts for the show. Rick Berman and Brannon Braga never seemed to have much time for things like character development or metaphor, and the quality of subsequent series suffered as a result. You can only jump the shark so many times before even the shark gets bored and splits. If a new series does ever get the green light, I hope they bring in people who know how to tell stories, and not just remix old ingredients into a bland casserole.
In the meantime, we geeks still have Battlestar Galactica, which just got renewed for another season.

I think this is a serious issue, have you considered. Sports betting for some fun.
