I would love a new Star Trek series, preferably something set immediately after the Dominion War. I'm kind of tired of going back. Want to go forward again.
Does anyone wish this show was still on the air?

Funny -- my wife and I were watching TATV today (the end of a month's long Trek marathon) and I made a comment that it's too bad the show was on UPN because the suits shut it down prematurely. I have little doubt that, had the show gone direct to syndication, it would have run for 7 years like its predecessors.
PS: TATV is even worse than I remembered from its initial airing.
YEP. I feel cheated that we didn't get seven years. That jerk Les Mooves took it away from us.
Me, too.
I was thinking that to get around the Romulan war, it could've been something that ENT covered in a straight to video movie, like how BSG released Razor, between seasons and have the upcoming season take place after the war. It could've also given the show a chance to reboot, if they felt it was necessary.
I would be thrilled and delighted if they decided to make 3 movies or so about the Earth-Romulan Wars then the birth of the federation. I know scripts have been written and books written about this time frame so it couldnt be to hard to get it done! Maybe even and independent company could take over and film these.
The NX-01 was pretty darn alone in the Delphic Expanse and they saved the Earth! What more did you want them to do to prove themselves?
Sure, they didn't triumph in straight-up space battles. It was the first mission of Earth's first starship and they were technologically outmatched by every other spacefaring civilization out there. Despite that material disadvantage they accomplished incredible things. How you see that as an expression of "anti-hope" is beyond me.
This was one of my favorite things about the show. Enterprise was a very small fish in a very big pond, but they never gave up no matter how long the odds were, and they punched way above their weight when it mattered most. It was certainly a nice change of pace from having the crew serving aboard one of the most powerful ships in known space.
Agree that Enterprise had a good future if they wouldnt have taken it off the air. After reading The Good That Men Do and Kobayashi Maru novels a big part of me is hoping for a movie or tv miniseries that brings the crew of Enteprise back together to tell the story of the Romulan War and the birth of the Federation. I believe this story must be shown someday in video format to come full circle with Trek.
I would be very happy if it came back, under the same philosophy as Manny Coto was taking it. I liked that direction. But I'm so desperate for new Trek, I'd even watch it under B&B's aegis. 
However, I'm really rooting for Bryan Fuller to take up the Trek mantle after the next movie is a big hit, with the debut of the new series to coincide with Abrams Trek #3.

It lasted two seasons too long in my opinion as it was.
Save the trolling for TNZ.
Save the name-calling for TNZ, if you please.
I don't know that I'd want it to STILL be on (Season 11 seems a bit too much). However, I certainly wish the show got it's full Seven years like it should have.
I really wish they'd advertised it more, I didn't even know about the show until 3 years after it was cancelled. I'll be there's a lot of people in the same boat as me.
