I also find the Vulcan very attractive. I forgot her name. Tu Pol?

I think the series was not worse than New Generation, but I am sure we all have our favorite and less favorite prequels and sequels.

I remember when Tripp got pregnant

I once read that if the show had another season there would be a Caitian

I agree, the Xindi storyline was too long, they pretty much dedicated an entire season to it and it was just not a good fit.

I think it would have been more plausible for the Aquatics to have gone extinct than the Avians. Imagine having to construct space ships holding large water tanks to house the Aquatics.

Everyone knows that "Faith of the Heart" is what killed Enterprise. If they had only churned out a grand pseudo-classical fanfare theme people would have been able to sit through a fifth and sixth season.

 

Yes! The song! Horrible!

Besides the eye candy of Connor Trinneer as Commander Tripp, I also lusted after Captain Archer played by Scott Bakula, whom I first fell in lust with in Quantum Leap! Unfortunately, the Enterprise script writers were simply unable to hold my interest, even with these two gorgeous actors!:eek:o_O:(

Enterprise has been discussed elsewhere in this group. Some people say that full season three Xindi storyline killed the series. I agree with the original post's video -- that long story arcs are more in line with what fans were looking for. I think that part of the problem was the look of the show -- all of the ship scenes were dark gray with blue, and even when the story went off-ship they'd end up in a dark-walled setting. Aside from the shirtless mature men, the scene posted by TruHart was a treat because the desert was a relief from gray walls and the sunshine was blinding by comparison to a majority of scenes.

 

Another problem was that the story writing followed the same style and tone that was perfected by final seasons of The Next Generation, and then the overall tone was honed and reused on Deep Space Nine and Voyager. Conflict was superficial, and the "good" characters were all decent people progressing through moderate character development. Even the edgy characters who were supposed to create conflict (Ensign Ro, Kira, Garak, Quark, Torres, Soval, Sillik) were either part of the family or became sympathetic allies. Fans of science fiction and television in general were looking for something darker and grittier as evidenced by the Battlestar: Galactica series launched as Enterprise was failing, where every single character was deeply flawed and every personal interaction was rooted in one conflict or another.
