    I did enjoy "enterprise" and since it happens "before" Kirk, etc. then
    it is still in the same timeline. :-)

    Enterprise was good for me, too. I'm sad that it's gone, but
    seriously contemplating rewatching the series at some point in the
    future here.

    Same here - it was on Netflix the last time I checked...

    I enjoyed the later part of TNG and remember being so disappointed in
    DS9 and the whole premise of the show where you have this space station where most things seems to evolve around yet another bunch of aliens visiting the space station or whatever. It very became stale and
    boring.

    I must admit I haven't seen Enterprise at all but I really enjoyed the episodes of Voyager that I managed to see. Maybe I should give
    Enterprise a try too?

    Enterprise is the one with Scott Bakula (of Quantum Leap) and takes place
    in the time of post Warp travel but still well before Kirk. The Federation
    of Planets doesn't exist yet and Earth is just reaching out toward the
    stars.

    Actually they introduce the transporter for people in the first episode. :-)

    Actually, I found it to be more about the early exploration and the building
    of the federation, since the UFP charter is formed in the final episode or
    two.

    Yeah - that's what I meant - early exploration.

    I think the UFP charter was more as a book end and a "tie in" to TNG...

    I wish it would have gone for a couple more seasons. I may just watch
    it again this summer. I always thought the characters where very good
    and well acted. The strugle the Vulcan's and Humans have between each other felt real . I think it is one of the most under rated Treks.

    Good point. They really brought out the depth of the characters as well
    as the races.

    BBC America runs TNG but they run the SAME episodes over and over again and they run them out of order. You look one day and they are running season 2 then back to season 1 maybe a few from season 3 or 4 you can never tell what they are going to show. And complaints to their progrmming deparment fall on deaf ears.

    They only run the episodes that have the predominantly British cast members
    and guest stars in them. It is the BBC therefore that's the ones they are focused and interested in.

    In the new Trekverse they mention a transporter accident with Admiral
    Archer's pet beagle being why Montgomery Scott and the teddy bear was
    stationed on the far away outpost.

    Therefore in the New Trekverse one can speculate that the "Enterprise" is
    canon for that storyline.

    Enterprise didn't get good until the last season and by then it was too late
    to save it.

    Oh yeah it's canon! :-) It happened many years before the events of the
    new movie. :-)

    I would think that they'd get bored watching the same episodes over and over again. It's become that I just see what episodes are running and just pass them by. It looks to me that within a month you've seen everything they run. Not a good way to attract viewers.

    Sort of like the clasic TV stations like antenna TV. How many times can they run Newhart, One Day At A Time and others through before viwers start to jump ship for other stations? Antenna's saving grace is that they are running Johnny
    Carson every night and if they don't repeat episodes, (which I have not seen them do yet because I've watched every episode), it will be many years before they've run everything once. It's OK to repeat them same day for those who may
    not be able to DVR it though.

    I thought Enterprise was a lot of fun, but the best fun came in the
    last season when they did SO MUCH...

    I think one cool part about it is that Enterprise "still happened" even
    after the reboot of the movies. :-)

    Oh - and the episode where they found the Borg from the TNG movie?
    That was cool!

    To which Drew Klenotic replies...

    To be honest, I find all of the alternate-time-line-time-travel-reboot
    stuff just a little old.

    I'd rather see new ships, new crews, new ideas (I fell in love with DS9
    the moment I realized it wasn't going to be a "let's all go through the wormhole and see what we find this week" kind of show).

    I'd love to see another space station based series. Just so much
    possibility.

    But I'm not a fan of reboots in general.... and the Star Trek ones in particular. (In fact, I haven't even seen the last one).

    I hope Discovery is all that and a bag of chips.

    My personal opinion of 'reboots' has changed DRASTICALLY in the last
    couple of years - a relatively recent time, as far as my lifespan goes (I
    will be 50 in March).

    I've gotten back into my comic collecting lately, and I've been reading
    some of the new series (Flash and Green Lantern, specifically). I've also
    been watching the Flash television show (watched Supergirl & Legends of Tomorrow first seasons on Netflix/Hulu, but not current season). At first,
    I was struggling with, "that's not the way it is supposed to be" but
    then when Flash introduced Earth 2 and the Multiverse, I realized that
    ALL shows 'exist' in antoher 'verse. Suddenly - wow - there's no reason
    to get 'hung up' on details - just go along for the ride! :-)

    Have you been watching Timeless? They really threw me for a loop in the
    VERY FIRST EPISODE! They did something I did NOT expect and they have
    continued this specific trend. At first my mind was BLOWN by this, but
    then when I realized it's not OUR world then it all fell into place
    for me. :-)
