it wasn't such a long time it was only four years not such a long time
they didn't answer all my prayers but now we canceled they can kiss my they can go to hell
they should have made me Captain anyhow put me in the cat suit as well cause I've got
oh yeah just as good as Jolene Blalock God looks and charms

I've got games yeah I've got games
[Music] that's fantastic wow
foreign whether you're a fan of new Trek old track or both the one thing that nearly All Star Trek
fans can agree on is that the Golden Age of Star Trek ended with Enterprise in 2005. that's about
right most of us would also agree that if you were to rank all of the shows from best to worst the
Legacy Star Trek shows would be ranked at the top and why not they laid the foundation of what would
become the most influential piece of art ever created you ever watched Star Trek I love Star
Trek what other movie painting song or TV show has impacted Society more than Star Trek forget the
fact that Star Trek was a Trailblazer in knocking down race and sex barriers while showing us what a
future of equality and hope really looked like but it inspired a generation of young scientists and
Engineers who created things like cell phones tablets video conferencing and even MRIs sure
maybe Star Wars changed the way we made movies The Beatles changed the way we made music and
the Mona Lisa changed the way we painted portraits but we would argue Star Trek has done more good
for Humanity as a work of art than any other Star Trek so imaginative and what Star Trek TOS started
Star Trek the Next Generation DS9 Voyager and Enterprise continued and while it can be
argued that new shows like strange new worlds and Discovery have championed culture in its own way
its Legacy Star Trek that created a formula loved by millions that had it not been snubbed out would
still likely be telling Jean Roddenberry stories in culturally significant ways that Star Trek once
did but unfortunately one guy blew up the whole thing and when he dies his Tombstone should say
the guy who destroyed Star Trek who is he chances are not who you think it is so you don't want to

and we're back if you check the temperature of many fans who feel like new Star Trek hasn't
captured the same magic of the old shows they'd probably say that current Star Trek head Alex
kurtzman batleft the Federation in the back but while he has his own faults destroying the Golden
Age of Star Trek is not one of them you see one of the reasons people love Star Trek so much is that
Roddenberry had a set of rules it included making sure the audience understood that Humanity had
moved on Beyond socio-economic struggles of the 20th century that main characters didn't mistreat
each other or have conflicts that weren't quickly resolved and that the future was always one of
Hope the challenge Mr offenhaus is to improve yourself before Roddenberry died he passed
these rules onto the man responsible for Star Trek through Enterprise that man is Rick Berman Berman
treated roddenberry's rules Like a Star Trek Bible and wouldn't allow writers actors or showrunners
to deviate from the Star Trek Creator's vision and while we don't know if kurtzman would have
continued following roddenberry's rules we know that Berman never had a chance to deliver them
and as a result Star Trek has taken a turn for the different and doesn't adhere to the vision of
the Creator so who was the person responsible for this less moonves moonves became the chairman and
CEO of CBS in 2003. he despised science fiction in general and hated Star Trek in particular racist
sacrilegious moonves had been the CBS head since 1995 and he was a close friend of Sumner Redstone
who owned both CBS and Paramount under Viacom moonves couldn't touch Star Trek as it belonged
to Paramount TV and fell under Paramount talks of the split had started in 2003 and moonves had his
eye on Paramount Television knowing the network was coming to him moonves had been pushing behind
the scenes to have Enterprise canceled before becoming CEO the series was canceled by moonves
on February 3rd 2005 two months before the split was even announced ending Star Trek's 18-year
run on television it still hurts my feelings so why United moonves cancel Enterprise according
to Connor trineer who played Tripp on Enterprise once Paramount Television head Carrie mcclugen was
fired it was all downhill from there Enterprise had a great first season on UPN but Paramount's
hot little network was costing too much money and ended up folding into CBS and into the waiting
arms of moonves Sherry Lansing Paramount head Star Trek friendly executive and moonves's boss
was able to keep the show from being canceled but when moonves became lansing's boss in 2004
following the Viacom split of CBS in Paramount nothing could stop him from canceling Star Trek
and that's exactly what he did at the end of the show's fourth season in 2005. I hate him so much
the word was out no Star Trek under less moonves now moonves may hate Star Trek but he loves money
more than he hates science fiction ironically he's responsible for Star Trek coming back when
in 2014 he announced CBS all access the all-access flagship show would become Star Trek discovery
so the real ammunition moonves had for shutting down Enterprise in Star Trek was that it was
losing money and while Enterprise was not doing well during its second and third Seasons its
fourth season was arguably its best and with Manny koto's storytelling the next three seasons would
likely have returned Enterprise to the Star Trek Glory of TNG DS9 or Voyager I suggest you order
your forces to stand down Berman being nice called it politics but the reason Star Trek
had been run down in the first place was because the studio had wrote it hard and put it away wet
DS9 overlapped TNG and Voyager didn't give TNG a breath before it launched also overlapping DS9
the studio wanted Berman to overlap Voyager with Enterprise but he refused he was worried about
Star Trek burnout and that's what the studio ended up hitting him with during Enterprises
third season Star Trek fatigue had they listened to Berman in the first place there would have been
no fatigue a lot of people were real unhappy Berman had wanted to let Eng breathe and start
Voyager a year or two after TNG ended and he had wanted to do the same for enterprise we saw it
recently with Star Wars too much content too frequently and people get tired of it imagine
if Voyager had run until 2003 an Enterprise had started in 2005 and ended in 2012. Rick Berman is
77 right now younger than our president America is a nation that can be defined in a single word
Berman had no desire to leave Star Trek when he was fired bran and Braga who co-show ran with
Berman on Enterprise would continue doing science fiction including the popular Orville TV show
you will be silent so Braga would have still been doing Star Trek as well Manny Koto who
died recently at the age of 62 May he rest in peace was just getting warmed up during
Enterprises fourth season and do you know what his favorite Star Trek was the original series
guess who else was working on Star Trek when it was canceled but card season 3 showrunner Terry
matalis who may be the last person holding a candle for roddenberry's vision the point is
that edmundves not fired Berman and kicked Star Trek to the curb and if he had given the show time
to breathe the fan base wasn't going anywhere but instead he got obsessed on making shows targeting
young women and this little thing called The CW Network yes he's responsible for that Network
as well they started focusing more away from science fiction away from Star Trek and more
into a lot of television programs for young women had moonves given Burman the opportunity to hand
Star Trek off the right way with roddenberry's vision and rules in place who knows what we
would have have had today yes updating Star Trek is okay but imagine the stories and writing we
would have on shows today if it were being run by Future generations of kodo Braga and matalis
the moonves Legacy would go down in flames as a result of his sexual harassment and intimidation
of women he's a pervert dude but never forget that he is also the same guy that destroyed the
most culturally significant piece of art Humanity has ever known Star Trek space the final frontier
These Are the Voyages of the Starship Enterprise its five-year mission
to explore strange new worlds to seek out new life and new civilizations to boldly go where
no man has gone before but what do you think did moonves Rob Star Trek of maintaining its
Legacy or is it fine the way it turned out or do you think Star Trek's Legacy died with Berman or
does new Star Trek just need more time in the sun let's talk about it in the comments below and if
