Good lord, is she always that stunningly pretty?

I've never watched more than a few episodes of Enterprise. Is it worth the investment? Is there a cut of it with that godforsaken theme song removed, or replaced with something more palatable like two dozen screaming goats?

Love it or hate it, almost every Trek series has its eye-candy characters who keep us from revolting when the writers drop the ball. T'Pol did about as much heavy lifting in that department as Seven, and I'm pretty OK with that.

I've said before that anyone who had an issue with Seven being added to sexy up Star Trek should take another look at the Yeoman uniforms in TOS or Deanna in a lot of TNG.

I mean Deanna is by far my biggest issue with TNG

Never has the "skip intro" button received as much action as when I watched Enterprise.

Jolene Blalock? Yes. Watch Enterprise if you want to see her butt. :D

Hey, some of us are proud to have faith of the heart!

But I understand. There are fan edits on YouTube that use the credits theme (Archer's Theme) as the title theme and it works really well. You could do an audio swap on your own rips with an app like Handbrake.

Enterprise is a TV adaptation of a children's Star Trek story that LeVar Burton read on Reading Rainbow.

I also liked it overall. But they did not spare the cheese.

Me upon seeing this particular meme, more then any other risa post: “i should really start watching star trek”

[–] Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Like most Star Trek, the first couple seasons are a bit rough. The problem is they killed off Enterprise after only 4 seasons, meaning the ratio of good to bad isn't great. And the series finale is god awful. Still, I liked it more than Voyager.

But 3 is the worst season. They should have ended it after 2.

I agree, once it gets to be all about the temporal Cold War it’s kind of bleh.

I do like some time travel in my Star Trek.

I don't really want a little Star Trek in my time travel
