LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) Through Monday (Feb. 21) morning, a group of
dedicated "Star Trek: Enterprise" fans called TrekUnited had raised $34,290
toward convincing UPN, Paramount and Viacom that the soon-to-be-cancelled
sci-fi drama deserves another season. That's a sign of good faith, but
probably not enough to get the attention of a multi-billion dollar
corporation. However, TrekUnited has bigger goals. They want to
single-handedly put up $32 million to fund the show's fifth season.
The group previously purchased a full-page ad in the Los Angeles Times on
Tuesday, Feb. 15 arguing in favor of keeping the "Star Trek" franchise on
the air -- on Sci Fi Channel if not on UPN -- for at least another year.
Fans of the show have been asked to use their Times ad as a protest sign
when the group marches on Paramount Studios on Friday, Feb. 25.
"This will have to be a major showing and could mean the difference between
the death of 'Star Trek' and 'Enterprise,'" the group's website argues.
"Please, please rally all of the support that you can. Car pool, fly, drive
or whatever it takes to get to this event. Let's show the Executives that
we don't want to see 'Star Trek' die and we want to see new adventures in
the future."
Oh and fans planning to attend the event may not want to dress up as their
favorite "Star Trek" characters. People willing to donate $10,000 of their
hard-earned money (mostly refundable if they don't reach their goals or
Paramount shuns their overtures) for a low-rated series don't look
desperate but, apparently, those same people in costumes do.
"Although we think that coming in dress would be great, we also think this
would stereotype us all as 'Hardcore' Trekkers and would hurt more than
help," the group begs. "Please wear your daily wear."
For the season, "Star Trek: Enterprise" is averaging 2.87 million viewers
for UPN, putting its ratings in the league of the already-cancelled
"Grounded for Life" on The WB and UPN comedies "Eve" and "All of Us" which,
due to vastly lower production costs, have a far better chance of renewal.
The movement's main website, SaveEnterprise.com takes solace in some
statistically iffy sources. The site's "News" section includes one link to
a story about botched Nielsen ratings for the 2004-05 season (a story that
makes no mention of "Enterprise") and to a poll on a MSN story about the
"Enterprise" compilation that suggests that of 46,000 respondents, 81
percent favor the return of "Enterprise" (results followed immediately by
the phrase "Not a scientifically valid survey).
