Star Trek Enterprise

[Reverend Conehead]

I've been re-watching this show on Netflix. I'm loving it. It didn't get enough credit the first time through. I loved Season 3's plot arc about the Xindi and their weapon. The show had it's warts, especially in the first season, but it got good later. It's a breath of fresh air after the awful, awful JJ Abrams reboot Trek movies, which I hated. After that, Enterprise seems great. I really like the character of T'Pol and what she had to go through when that illness that left her unable to suppress her emotions. The show was not perfect, but it did some good things. It's kind of a shame that it only ran 4 seasons.

I have a lot of trepidation about the upcoming Star Trek Discovery. I didn't want another prequel, but maybe it will be good. I'm hoping they have thematic-based scifi like the other ST shows and not just shoot'em up adventure, which was what I objected to about the reboot movies.

I enjoyed the new Star Trek trilogy from a movie standpoint, but not from a Star Trek stand point. I enjoyed them though.

Yeah I loved Enterprise as well. Scott Bakula is always good. Yeah it had its problems, but each series did.

I'm nervous about Discovery. It's set 5 years before Kirk's Enterprise, I don't know how they are supposed to explore brave new worlds that weren't covered in all the series that came after it. I would have much rather had a series that takes place after Voyager, just imagine the technology they could come up with. But with a prequel they are so limited from a continuity standpoint. I hope Discovery is a hit, and I will watch it because it's been too long since Trek had a series.

The scene in the first episode, of T'Pol smearing gel on herself got me hooked.

Yeah, Jolene Blalock is easy on the eyes. She also did a really great job in that part. They asked a lot of her and she delivered.

what is sad is that she has done very little since the series

That is a shame. She's a very good actress.

...Fascinating!...

Not the biggest Trek fan but enjoy the shows (that I have seen) and movies. I agree, thought this show was underrated and rewatched recently myself. Still good and ended too soon.

I watch every episode that comes on the Heroes & Icons Channel at 11pm central time... Sunday - Friday

I essentially started my Trek viewing with Voyager. DS9 is my favorite for sure. I LOVE the Kelvin-Verse (Abram's Trek). People these days are just so picky about stuff like Star Trek. Abrams may have a lot of action but that's okay, there is still a message relevant to today's world in each one. Plus it was cast PERFECTLY.

Star Trek Beyond was made for Trekkers and it has the spirit of what Trek is about. Nemesis had a lot of action, First Contact had a lot of action. I think the only reason people don't like Abram's Trek is because they have a narrow view about what Star Trek should be. And typical fanatic stubbornness. Enjoy each ride.

Hard Core Trekkers like me did not like some of what abrams did because it was STUPID. You do NOT have a captain of one of the primary ships in the fleet like Abram's Kirk. Basically a Queeg. No experience, etc. Star Trek always prided itself on being sensible and logical. Abrams was neither.

Exactly. Trek has always had action, but out of the action always came themes. Abrams turned Trek into illogical themeless Fast and Furious in space. If he wanted to make a shoot'em-up adventure in space, fine, but he should have kept the Trek name off it. Every reboot movie was 10 times worse than the worst Trek movie before (Star Trek V).

I heard this new Star Trek Discovery project is going to be on Netflix. Is this true? I'm not buying a CBS online access subscription just to wacth the new series. I'm really hoping the rumor I heard about it being on Netflix is true.

Danger, Will Robinson!!! Uh, wrong show?

the first episode will be on Netflix in the US. After that it's on that new CBS streaming service. Outside the US, it will just be on netflix.

I really hope it's good. I'll be severely disappointed if it's not any good.

I'm always watching a Star Trek series. I usually watch them as I wind down for bed and it's almost the only TV I watch. (winding down that is) I currently am watching Enterprise again too. I'm in season two of it. I've seen them all multiple times with the exception of DS9 which I've only watched once.

That one is much harder to watch as it comes off much more like a soap opera. I only really appreciate maybe half of the DS9 episodes.

TOS, TNG, Voyager, and Enterprise are all great series.

No offense, but as soon as you said DS9 is your favorite, you lost all credibility. LOL

Hey, I do this! I come to bed around one or two, turn on a recorded episode, my Wife cusses at me under her breath for waking her up and I fall asleep with Star Trek in one ear and my Wife blessing me out, for waking her, in the other. It's perfect I tell you!

I didn't like DS9 when it first aired. I found it boring and quit watching. However, I went back years later and watched the whole thing. I realized it just took that show a while to get its legs, but when it did, it did some outstanding work.
