LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) After four seasons and 98 episodes, UPN's "Star Trek: Enterprise" comes to an end, with its series finale airing on Friday, May 13.

Word came to series creators and executive producers Rick Berman and Brannon Braga, along with fellow executive producer Manny Coto, at 6 p.m. Pacific time on Tuesday, Feb. 1, with cast and crew finding out Wednesday morning.

After critical praise for an extended 9/11-inspired storyline last season, "Enterprise" is ironically having what may be an even stronger year creatively, with many episodes echoing characters and stories from the original series.

As to whether Sci Fi Channel or any other cable outlet might pick up the show (as happened with "Stargate SG-1"), Berman says, "The feeling that I've gotten -- and this is less than 24 hours old -- is that everyone seems to agree that it's time to give the franchise a rest.

4. The first episode I watched was the 1st of the Vulcan arc...

The last 8 shows have been solid. I know that much of the earlier work was pretty bad, but I've really enjoyed the last 8 shows. Too bad.

I will admit freely admit even they are not the quality of STTNG or STDS9.

5. Trek Franchise...

let this dead horse lie and quit whipping it. Paramount screwed up royally by killing "ST-TNG" at the height of it's popularity to replace it with a half-assed shadow of the program that's centered around a space station babysitting a wormhole. "Voyager" was utter crap, to the point that Paramount had to add the hot Borgette to give it T&A appeal for fandom. I've tried to watch one episode of "Enterprise" and found it tiring.
