It was still a better show than The Enterprise, though not up to DS9, imo. And I’m perfectly happy to yell at the screen when they do something unbelievably stupid.
I’ve watched every Trek-related show or movie except the Enterprise series. For some reason it didn’t interest me anymore. But in many of the episodes, left-wing idiocy was especially laughable. Like when Picard was able to use liberal persuasion to convince evil aliens not to be evil. What the bad guys really need is just a hug, right?
