I never watched Enterprise. Voyager killed it for me. I doubt that Enterprise could be as bad as Voyager, but I never had any interest in finding out.

>> Voyager killed it for me. <<

I wish I could have hated ST:V as much as I should have — I distinctly remember the first time we heard Kate Muldrew speak my wife burst out laughing. When Mrs. FD could finally collect herself she asked “is that her real voice? It sounds like a Munchkin or on helium!”

But the general plot lines were compelling in their own way. The subtext of “we will adhere to Star Fleet rules because the alternative is complete chaos” which requires everyone to sign up (they had a few chances to jump ship but didn’t because, you know, Star Trek!).

They show ST:V on a few stations and I do find myself caught up with the situations — and my chance to be the Monday Morning Parisi Squares coach.

Enterprise? After a few episodes Mrs. FD again took the helm and said “all you do is call every single character an ahole.” She was right, even the Vulcan eye-candy hawtie — in fact she was the most insufferable ahole of them all.

YMMV — and clearly does. :) :)

One thing every Trekker that saw even a single ep of TOS and TNG knows: It took 2 dudes to replace 1 Kirk and Kirk would have kicked PICARD’S BUTT (which he almost did in that sad, sad movie).

DS9 deserves its own discussion thread even if so many hated it ;)
