Technically, he's wrong. The first spinoff, Star Trek: The Animated Series, lasted only two seasons.

And ‘Enterprise’ lasted only three seasons. Which wasn’t near enough. That show had untapped potential.
I’d prefer “Firefly”.
I liked the “Enterprise” series.
They are all up on the net now for watching.
And the missing seasons of the original series are in production... I saw the first few and they are really good!
The production values are better than the original seasons.

I recall that, before Enterprise bowed, the buzz was that a new series would take up in the ST-NG timeline, and be focused on Star Fleet Academy. Didn’t happen, of course, which was too bad. IMHO Enterprise started interesting, but grew increasingly gimmicky and desperate by its last season.
They don’t want a new Star Trek series.
I was in California last week pitching a new Star Trek series to NBC.
It’s called NAKED MIDGET SINGING AND DANCING STAR TREK NIS.
They said to try selling it to ABC.
How about a Star Trek that correctly represents the demographics in the year 2100+, i.e. mostly African?
How about a Star Trek that assumes there will be a singularity between now and 2100+, i.e. all or most of the cast are AI robots?
How about a Star Trek in the far distant future where run-of-the-mill characters accidentally create star systems by just burping?
Or even better, how about a Star Trek that features a group of colonists on a planet that due to some monstrous event have lost much of their technology. They have to combat occasional visitors while attempting to develop their technology to a point where they can leave the planet or at least send an SOS probe toward Earth. Sort of like Star Trek meets Gilligan's Island.
Whatever happens: PLEASE NO TIME TRAVEL, PLEASE NO TACHYON BEAMS, PLEASE NO DEUS EX MACHINA of any sort.
Prissy characters and yacky plots in “The Next Generation” ruined the franchise — a long time ago.
Star Trek: Axanar takes place 20 years before the original series and has a good budget.
During the South Dakota game yesterday, the Kansas State band attempted to show the Starship Enterprise fighting a giant KU Jayhawk.
For those with an eye for such things, unfortunately it resembled a phallus that the garish, cartoon-like bird was preparing to fellate.
Apologies all around were given and next time maybe they’ll try a Firefly class spacecraft?
Yes, with the original characters.
How did the family of Trekkers get around on their vacation?
They rented a Voyager from Enterprise.
And in the last sentence of the 7th paragraph it say why they won’t: Provided it can strike a deal with CBS, the current rights holders to television incarnations of Star Trek.
They don’t have the rights. So really the story should be about why CBS should make a new show.
Bump for placeholder
They could probably do my 600 pound Star Trek life on the cheap.
The top reason for another Star Trek TV series?
Watch more red shirts get offed!
My favorite...Enterprise.....lasted but 4 years. The worst was Voyager with the exception of Seven of Nine.
why a second one when the first one was so childish and stupid.
