What was discussed?

[Count Zero]

Well, people are still discussing shows off the air for decades here.
After the end of ENT I started getting into Trek Lit and fan fiction so I mostly frequented those forums, also General Trek and TNZ.
But discussions about a possible new film began pretty early on if I remember correctly. Funnily enough because right after ENT's cancellation a lot of people thought there wouldn't be any new Trek for quite a while (Someone coined the phrase "Computer: end franchise" in mockery of one of the last lines in ENT's final episode). As a matter of fact that was also a popular line of discussion: how and when to revive the franchise.

"Once you're into this family, there's no gettin' out!"

Certainly feels that way sometimes.

ENT ended in 2005, ST XI Proper was announced in 2006. During the interim we had Jenderson's ST XI project and an animated series that went nowhere.

At the time, I was one of the people who thought this should become a general sci-fi/fantasy board instead of a board where the primary focus was supposed to be Star Trek.

The forums about the pre-existing ST series and movies continued as normal, same as before and since.
