Scott Bakula Talks ENTERPRISE

Scott Bakula has been talking, again, about why he signed on board ENTERPRISE. In a video segment posted online at Zap2It.com, Bakula talks about why he took on the series, saying, "It was a big decision to make. When I first heard the premise, I was very excited, because I'm a fan of the show and the idea of being the first captain on the first ship was very exciting to me. I wanted to read the script."

He adds, "The only possible negative was that the show's been around a long time and can you find the life and the vitality and the excitement. And if it had been a series that continued where VOYAGER had left off, I doubt that I would have done it. But because it was an opportunity to recreate and make it 'our own,' without a lot of rules set in place that we had to obey, that was very exciting."
