Voyager finished 122nd and lost 9 percent of its audience this last year. Every year, Voyager is losing audience share. At this rate, Voyager will be in the 130's if it concludes its episodic run in seven seasons (translation-bottom of the barrel).

I wonder how many viewers were lost simply because the stations showing them defected. WPTT 22, the station that USED to carry UPN to Pittsburgh, defected to the WB (which I can't stand) network, without any notice whatsoever.

I remember a lot of folks here complaining when their affiliates cut and ran, too, and I'd almost be willing to wager that Voyager's losses came more from that than from unpopularity.

It's hard to say. There's also the fact that ratings for everything are down.

Where is it in the UPN league table? If it's still one of their best shows, they won't be that upset.

I get it Sunday at midnight on Fox. We don't have a UPN station. I'm hoping they will move it to DS9's time slot, 5pm. Sat.

UPN rules the bottom of the barrel. Out of the bottom thirty-seven shows, UPN accounts for 21 shows. The others are: FOX 3 and WB 13.

These statistics give a good view at UPN's status. The network is losing viewership in an already small niche of the market. No show is a major success. And a number of shows have been cancelled.

UPN had some wonderful shows, like Nowhere Man, but they were all cancelled because they weren't instant successes.
