Because you're in rather desperate need of love and attention? Failing that, you just like it when UM makes you feel silly.

I loved Enterprise. I suppose I'm not as deep a Star Trek fan as I used to be- I no longer care about ship designs and fan-fiction and conventions- but I do know a good show when I see it. Enterprise as a show on its own has good plot and great character development. Who cares if it doesn't fit what trekkie nerds believe is proper way Star Trek should be? Its only the first season, and we're seeing a side of Star Trek history that no one has seen before, so how can anyone really know how it is supposed to be?

I think that, so far, I'm sort of between camps. We stopped getting it in my little village, so I've had to wait for tapes. I went through T'Pol withdrawl for a couple weeks, but other than that, I didn't miss it terribly.
On the other hand, I find a couple things they're doing with it to be very nice. They're perhaps even learning from a couple instances of ball dropping with Voyager. They've got a couple of on going story lines that are nice. The Temporal Cold War is good and plays nicely with the fact that noone really seems to believe time travel is possible yet. I really hope they don't wrap it up next season.
Voyager started out with some on-going things, but pretty much dropped them.
DS9 did the best with continuing plots and connecting threads, and is, incedently, my favorite of the 5 series.

No he don't. Koy makes good topics, unlike me... Koy also has intellect to add to discussions, and doesn't flame or bash people like a couple people. Except for that on kinda thing back a little. But that's over. Koy, even though he can bee a little off sometimes, is a good friend and a potentially very valuable member of Flare, like Bernd or somebody. But we are all off sometimes. So leave Koy alone and focus your bashing and flaming and insults at me.

I agree with the thread title, although I missed a lot when I was in exile... I'll catch the reruns this summer, if the VCR and I ever start getting along....

To get back to the orignal topic:
I am glad that Enterprise is getting less of the 'Voyager Effect' and is developing a style of it's own. The one problem with DS9's first season was that it tried to mimic the TNG style. Enterprise, now having seen Shockwave, is now offically ahead of Voyager, and if the Temporal Cold War goes right, it will beat DS9. But it can't beat TNG or TOS, of course. If Ent. pulls off a storyline while outside exploring space, then I know it will last seven seasons.

First off, DS9's first season didn't copy TNG at all. In fact, they made a vast departure. They focused on internal crew conflicts. The plot lines tended to be more political, focusing on Bajor and the internal struggles there as well as on the exploration of the Gamma Quadrant. They had a few continuing plot lines throughout the season which is something TNG didn't pick up until later in its run. From the very beginning, DS9 was set up as more of a local story than TNG.
Secondly, how can Enterprise end up better than DS9 but not TNG when DS9's "problem" was mimicing TNG?
