Season 1 and 2 were too episodic, and they were super heavy-handed with the social commentary while also trying to sex the show up in a weird combination that didn’t work at all.
Season 3, they swerved hard into serialization and went WAY overboard with it.
I think they’d finally a good rhythm in Season 4 with little 3-episode mini-arcs, but it was too late to save the show.
And the series finale was a slap in the face to the whole production. They deserved a better ending.
Sounds about right … I just finished seasons 1 and 2 … and I can see where season 3 is headed which makes it feel more like Star Wars instead of Star Trek … and someone also mentioned it’s parallels to the recent American feelings about the Sept 11 attacks on the World Trade Center … everyone was preoccupied by that in 2003 when season 3 was happening.
It’s too bad because I had been hoping for storylines like TNG or even TOS but instead it’s just devolving into neverending nonsensical war against a mysterious unknown enemy.
The funny part is the change to the intro. Season 3 has become darker and they opted for an upbeat margaritaville remix of the song.
Enterprise had trouble finding its footing.
