STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE actor Dominic Keating speaks this morning in a new
interview with BBC Cult about his role as 'Malcolm Reed' and the future of
his show, which airs its season finale "Zero Hour" in the United Kingdom
for the first time this evening.
"It's a good finale - my girlfriend said she saw it in America a week and a
half ago, and said it was absolutely terrific," Keating says. "I think it
rounds off the season really cleverly, with a lot of action and adventure
and suspense, and a lovely twist at the end that just makes you scratch
your head and wonder at what you've just seen."
Keating says he and the rest of the cast grew nervous during this previous
season, wondering whether STAR TREK was going to be abruptly cancelled.
"There was a time about five, six months ago when we were all on set with
one another, and we were looking around at one another going, 'Damn, this
might be it, on our watch'," he says. "So there was a period of time when I
was rather worried. I signed for seven years, and they kept telling me it
was going to be for seven years and it looked like it was going to be three
and that was it. I was getting my head around the fact that I wasn't going
to have all that secure work for the next three years, and the house I'd
bought, and thinking, "Ooh, I wonder if I can afford that mortgage", so it
was quite a relief when we did get the pick-up."
The actor says that the relationship between UPN's new management (since
the merger with CBS) and Paramount Television has degraded, leaving
ENTERPRISE in something of a quagmire. The BBC asked him whether he thinks
the show will fulfill its original seven-year hopes.
"I would say no, unfortunately," Keating responds. "There's two arguments
here. One is that Paramount has made a lot of money out of the show for the
last seventeen years, and the back lot at Paramount is basically run on the
back of STAR TREK. So without it there's a big hole there, a massive
hole... The new management has been put in place at UPN to try and eke out
a new demographic and bolster up failing audiences, and we don't fit into
what they imagine. But in the same bracket we happen to be their number one
drama. So it's a double-edged sword. As much as they'd love to get rid of
us, they can't."
The actor further likens ENTERPRISE to a "poor cousin that came to dinner
at the moment" when describing the show's current relationship with UPN
brass. Keating also becomes the latest to suggest that ENTERPRISE
co-creator and executive producer Brannon Braga may take a less involved
role in the show's fourth season, with Manny Coto perhaps taking over as
show runner.
"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."

Following his recent remarks to BBC Cult, STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE actor
Dominic Keating spoke more assuredly of a change at the head of the series
for next season while at SFX: The Event in London this weekend.
 Brannon [Braga] and Rick [Berman] have a couple of other projects that
they ve had in development, in their heads at least,  explained Keating,
 And I understand that they might be taking something of a sojourn or a
sabbatical in some respects on this season. I think Brannon s gonna be the
last draft consultant if you will, but I believe Manny Coto is actually
gonna become the showrunner. 
Keating's remarks seem to confirm Braga's own recent speculation that he
might take a reduced role in ENTERPRISE's fourth season. Coto joined the
show last season and wrote "Similitude,"  Chosen Realm ,  Harbinger ,
 Azati Prime  and  The Council" as a co-executive producer. Coto arrived
from his short-lived cable drama ODYSSEY 5. Keating praised Coto's
ENTERPRISE contributions thus far.
"He turned in four or five of the best scripts we ve ever had last season,
'Similitude' being, quite frankly, an awesome piece of science fiction."

 'Similitude' being, quite frankly, an awesome piece of science fiction."
Sbaglio o Similitude viene portato ad esempio quale migliore o uno dei
migliori episodi?
Dal punto di vista scientifico è un episodio che non sta in piedi, ed
insieme a Damage rappresentano la negazione del mondo Trek.
Ciao.
