I was about to exclaim "who cares!" because I can't bring myself to sit through a rerun of Enterprise. It really is a watch once kind of show on the most part (thanks to making it so linear). But seeing as this is news that Sci-Fi is nabbing all sorts of stuff from CBS Paramount, that's fine and appropriate.

cool.. I missed out on a lot of them. its better than reruns of ABC's Night Stalker

NOW they pick it up. Unbelievable. Where were they back when the show was coming to an end and there was an effort to save it? Instead we got and still get endless hours of terrible programs when they could have been continuing with Star Trek: Enterprise. Well, I guess I should be positive and look forward to catching up with the reruns. And for those of you who despised the show, go post somewhere else. We all know you hated it, we dont need to hear it again. There were, and still are, alot of us that loved Enterprise.

Sci-Fi Channel seems to be a dumping ground for cancelled shows. I wish they'd take that money and develop more quality shows like Battlestar Galactica and save the reruns for syndication.

The last season of Enterprise was excellent, and I'm glad it's found a home on SciFi. Now maybe they won't have to show so many of those awful man vs. _________ (input animal or reptile here) bad CGI/bad acting movies.

Yeah, a waste of money. Of course, it was a waste of money, time and effort when it was out originally.

#3 - jackdev73 Now? probably because it's cheaper.

I'm thrilled because I never saw enterprise. It was not on any stations where I live. I'll probably check out a few old Twilight Zones too, they're always good.

Don't remember the others, but Jake 2.0 sounds familiar. What was that about?

If Enterprise had lasted 7 seasons the way it was going it would have rivaled TNG for best trek series.

This is good news. Can't wait for the MFTMs.

Enterprise was good, I thought the ship was a cool design, and I thought Jolene Blalock was freaking hot as hell, and that last season was great, especially the episodes with Brent Spiner. I do'nt think it got what it deserved, I think it could have been more. I am glad the Sci-fi picked it up.
