Former ‘Enterprise’ producer on controversial ‘Enterprise’ ending. Plus: Braga on Star Trek XI<\/i>.Looking back, Star Trek: Enterprise’s<\/i> Brannon Braga<\/font> realizes that the ending of the four-year series was less than satisfying.<\/p>\n

As reported by iFMagazine<\/a>, Star Trek: Enterprise’s<\/i> ending did not meet expectations for Braga. “I think that final, final episode, I may be understating it when I’m saying it didn’t turn out as well as I hoped,” he said. “I think the intentions behind it sent a valentine to all the ‘Star Trek’ shows and a very genuine heartfelt one, because we knew ‘Star Trek’ would be off television for a long, long time, but it was kind of a lackluster story.”<\/p>\n

If Braga had to do the ending over again, he wouldn’t know exactly what to do. “I don’t know [what I would have done,] because at the time I thought it was very cool, it was only when it came out, I realized, ‘this isn’t quite working.’ That happens. I don’t know what I would have done honestly. I think I might have just ended ‘Enterprise.’<\/p>\n

And what if Enterprise<\/i> had returned for another season? “I had moved on to another series [‘Threshold,’] so I would have left ‘Enterprise.’ I love ‘Star Trek.’ It’s the kind of show that’s such an open field conceptually, that I could have done it forever. At the same time, after fifteen years, I had to move on and let other people do it.”<\/p>\n

Braga confesses to being emotionally attached to Star Trek<\/i> and part of him is sad to see someone else in charge. “My analogy with ‘Star Trek’ is I divorced my wife, I love her dearly, she’s with a great guy, and I’m so happy for her,” he explained. “At the same time, in the back of mind, someone else is with my wife. That’s how I feel. I can’t help but feel emotionally attached to ‘Star Trek.’ But predominantly my feeling is it’s in great hands with J.J. Abrams and I can’t wait to see the movie.”<\/p>\n
