I have mixed feelings about it, ... It didn`t come as any great surprise; I can`t say that there wasn`t any deep emotional response, because most of us, frankly, saw the show getting cancelled after the third season. We were fortunate to get a fourth season, but frankly, the only reason we did is because from Paramount`s point of view they make a lot more money if they can make a certain number of episodes -- approximately 100 -- because that`s the number, at which point, it`s possible to sell into syndication nationally. Paramount essentially made a deal with UPN, the network that showed ENTERPRISE, that they would sell the show to them for half of what we were selling it to them at before -- just to keep us on one more year. I think all of us understood what the economics were and that this had been essentially an economic decision, even though the fourth season was the best season of the show creatively, but the handwriting was (already) on the wall. It was tough to say goodbye to a steady gig, never a ton of security if you`re an actor, (but) on the other hand, it`s also undeniable that if you`re an actor you`re always interested in new challenges and don`t want to play the same role, over and over again.

Volume for 250,000+ lists takes a huge jump upward resulting in approximately 20 percent read rate.
