Star Trek: Enterprise

Zero Hour - S3-E24

Corrected entry: The Reptilian Xindi says there are seven human life signs on the ship they're scanning. However, only six were on the ship.

Correction: Daniels was The Seventh person on the ship.

Carpenter Street - S3-E11

Corrected entry: Archer says that Daniels is supposed to know things, being from the "thirtieth century." But in previous episodes Daniels, identifies himself as being from the thirty-first century.

Correction: This makes perfect sense in the context, as Archer was speaking with anger and was being sarcastic at the time. Most people don't get all of the details right in those circumstances.

Correction: The canister is still there, but just off camera.

Correction: Character flaw: Even though a Vulcan, T'Pol can still make mistakes. The confusing Earth calendar is probably what prompted Starfleet to eventually adopt the stardate system.

Correction: The Sphere was hidden from Enterprise's sensors, and T'Pol could only approximate how far away the Sphere was supposed to be (75,000 kilometers). When Archer reports, he says they've "approached 79,000 kilometers and still no sign," meaning they've gone past T'Pol's original estimate with still no visible sign of the Sphere.

Carpenter Street - S3-E11

Corrected entry: Captain Archer does not know how to drive a car, but he is from a time when they had cars, and Trip even says in a previous episode that the escape pod him and the princess are in reminded him of his first car. (02:05:15 - 02:06:20)

Correction: Just because cars were still in use, it does not mean everyone can drive one. Archer's father was a pioneer of space travel, so it is not unlikely he learnt to fly a shuttle rather than drive a car. As a child he spent his time fantasising about flying space ships. Similarly, Travis would be unlikely to drive because he grew up on a freighter, not on Earth.

Answer: While ratings did drop, there was a lot going on to cause the rating drops and cancellation. First, "Enterprise" was on UPN, which was dissolved a year after the show was cancelled. At the time of cancellation, it was UPN's highest rated drama. Because they were on at night, they were often preempted by local UPN broadcast of baseball games. And it wasn't even aired in every market. They also lost a major corporate backer early and it was difficult for them to over come that loss. Plus, for season 4, they switched to a Friday night line up, so they were competing against Fox shows, like "The Simpsons" whereas on Wednesdays they didn't have much competition.

Answer: The same reason any show gets canceled, low ratings.

Not all shows get cancelled because of low ratings. Some get cancelled because they're too expensive to make.

Don't know why it had low ratings. IMO it was close to the best of Star Trek franchise.
