This was an ok series but they seemed to run out of ideas near the end. IS it just me or is the franchise failing miserably to deliver?
It's just you.
Nope, it's not just you... Star Trek needs to go away for a while and come back later, the deluge of Trek in the '90s burned out a lot of fans and presumably the shows' creators too since seemingly each week they have been stretching to come up with any good or creative ideas...and with other quality, sci-fi on television programs ( Battlestar Galactica as just the latest example) on right now and more competition it might do the franchise some good. The failure of Star Trek: Nemesis at the box office should have been a clear indication to hold off for a while, even if it had no chance againt Lord of the Rings opening up the next weekend.

NO ITS NOT YOU. I've been a trek fan since I was like 8, and they've simply been mismanaged for years. The wrong people in the wrong places. Berman and Bragga and their lack of talent ended it all. Unfortunately the entire Paramount Studio has seemed to be in the same place. Warner Brothers has the crown as the best in the biz right now, and they are far, FAR ahead of anyone else.
Nemesis was one of the worst movies I've ever seen, let alone from the Trek movies. It was simply a rehash of older material already done. It was miscast and awefully acted. I read the script like 8 months before it came out and laughed with horror at every page.
Enterprise was cut of the same black cloth up until now. The show has improved with tie-ins to the original series but is still not even close to excellent.
I think Trek died with Voyager. It was aweful until the 3rd/4th season when it became bearable, then it went back to being aweful again and Trek was DEAD.
I think if Star Trek returns it will unfortunately be a smaller sci-fi channel scale, rather then the absolutely huge success that TNG was.
Roddenberry must be somewhere floating in his grave...hehehe

No, it's just you guys. All of you.
The reality is that all Trek shows, INCLUDING Voyager and INCLUDING Enterprise have always been far-above-average quality television. Simply compare them to everything else out there. Is Enterprise so bad? The answer is no, of course. Just like so many other great genre shows, the reason it's going away is because it costs more to produce and it's audience is narrower, while cheap, trash TV is less expensive and attracts casual viewers far easier.
Plus, Trek, the last few years, has also fallen victim to the unjustified popular notion (cultivated by pathetic so-called 'hard-core' Trek fans who will always bitch and whine about everything) that it has somehow 'lost it's way' and has become tiresome. Well, considering the luggage it carries, it's doing exceptionally well maintaining the classic Rodenberry ideas, while also addressing the more complex subjects of society as it is today.
If Trek is down for the moment, it's not because it suffers quality-wise (although I admit a change of the people in charge of the franchise is needed). It's just a victim of unfavorable circumstances.

It seems you don't understand sarcasm when you see it.
Anyway, I said what I had to say. If that'll be all, may you live long and prosper.

No worries Thanos - I knew my comment might start something...oh well at least we all seem to have a sence of humour!

The only unfavorable circumstance with Trek is that since DS9 it has become tired and lacking, including the last two feature films...and if it's not suffering quality wise, why do you still feel that it needs different people in charge? Ronald D. Moore was right to jump when he did a few years ago and leave the sinking ship to Rick Berman...
