Captain Archer was the most relatable captain to me. He was both open minded, but stubborn. He fully admitted the way he disliked Vulcans, but began to understand why they did withhold things from humans as he said that humanity should not give technology to less advanced societies. He loves his crew, and that caused him to do things he regretted in making sure he kept them safe. He feared death, but was willing to accept it if needed. He was both short tempered, but also levelheaded when he knew he needed to set the example for his crew. He blew up numerous times to the Vulcan command, but ultimately apologized to them for it. In return he gained respect from the Vulcans, and helped to make them see that humans could adapt into responsible voyagers. Not perfect, but adaptable.

One of the best Star Trek shows on television. Season 4 got us all ramped up for more... unfortunately.

They could create a whole new show around her.

Star Trek is also known as the pigeon holer of many actors careers due to type casting which is why so many actors from all of the series end up doing fan conventions signing autographs and taking pictures with most newer acting jobs centered around the character they played in their perspective series starting with TOS. Even Bill Schatner could barely find acting work after TOS other than his voice over for the cartoon until Star Trek The Motion Picture in 1979, almost ten years after the original show had been cancelled at NBC.🙂

I thought season four leaned way too hard on fan service; many of the multi-episode arcs were terrific, don't get me wrong, but there's just no way they could have kept that up for three more seasons. My favourite is season 3, the last original thing Star Trek ever did.

Enterprise was a great show, absolutely holds its own against its predecessors. The cast was great and gave us some awesome characters. Loved it.

One of the problems with Enterprise was that it was on UPN, a network that was struggling not only with getting viewership but with acquiring enough t.v. station affiliates. They did manage to syndicate Enterprise in some markets that didn't have a UPN affiliate, but it was still far less available than the other Star Trek shows had been. Then around the time of Enterprise Season 4, the struggling UPN merged with the also struggling WB, and both networks were trying to cut back on their most expensive shows in order to become financially viable. Enterprise was obviously one of the expensive ones.

I didn't like the holodeck story, but if a series-or movie-could explain why it was done to cover up Section 31's use of Trip to infiltrate the Romulan War, not just to kill off Trip and the show, than that might've worked. It didn't happen and the show was cancelled. I want Jolene to return, even if it were to be a movie. Listen to the actors, especially after they've become used to their characters. Please, write: laurie.metrose@cbs.com and jennifer.verti@cbs.com and let them know what you want-series or movie.

Gotta back you up here, Ive watch it back to back 19 times now. Never thought one single episode wasnt good. It was always good.

28:38 - Well, I am FIRMLY in the group that loves the opening theme. It gave me shivers every single time I heard it, and I think it's a great homage to the strength of human will and tenacity. But I given the history of how Star Trek fandom has developed, I can easily see some folks not liking it. I'm sorry they had to put up with it, but I'm glad we got it.

I know a lot of folks hate on this show but I loved it so much. It felt so close to me because we, like the Vulcans are on the brink of destruction and constantly fighting over issues that could be solved. I was upset it didn't get one more season. My favorite character on the show was easily Dr. Phlox. I keep hoping the Vulcans will land on the planet now and tell us to get our stuff together LOL. We aren't ready. Oh and T'Pol was one fine ass Vulcan. I would move to Vulcan for her. Also the intro song was great.

I'm 71 years old. I have enjoyed ALL Star Trek series, including the newest ones on Paramount+. I firmly believe that 'Enterprise' got the short end of the stick. As in TOS, it took a while to 'get off the ground' but succeeded as a great installment to/of the legacy of Star Trek. I'ld suggest another short series featuring Admiral Archer, going into the TOS time period, just prior to Strange New Worlds.

I disagree about TOS needing time to get off the ground. The first several episodes grabbed me right from the start in 1966. I think most fans agree, especially those around in 1966. It's TNG, in particular, that took about 3 seasons to get going. I could barely make it through the first several episodes of TNG in 1987. I'm surprised I decided to give it a second chance, but I did, eventually.

I think that the roll was made for him. He basically played the same character as he did in Quantum Leap, (outside of the early 2nd season and Mirror).

Star Trek Enterprise was incredible and I wish it went a few more seasons.

Love this mini- doc. Reminds me of What we left behind. I think had there been a paramount + in 2005 Enterprise would have made 7 seasons and the STU would have more shows and movies in its catalog

Seeing Enterprise the first time was a trip. As I am writing this, I am uncertain what the actual release date was. My recollection is this: I was on a business trip to York PA. I worked for a major US motorcycle manufacturer and I was in York to learn everything I could absorb about a particular family of motorcycle. My flight landed in BWI on Sept 10th 2001. The next day was so bizarre and frightening. America had been attacked. The only thing I remember from that trip that was even slightly a distraction to the constant buzz of 9-11 was the premier of Enterprise. I've often wondered how the events of 9-11 affected the show and the audience. Ive often felt that the show might have stood a better chance if it existed outside of the pain and uncertainty of 9-11. I can say that for some reason or another I was not instantly a fan. It took years before I watched the entire series. When I finally became emotionally invested in the show, the show had been off the air for a while. I love it now..

I liked Enterprise from the beginning. I loved Bakula as captain, and quickly learned to appreciate the rest of the crew. It ended way too soon, and I do agree, the season finale was an absolute bust, dishonoring the crew and the fans. By the way, I liked that crazy theme song, too. It made sense to me. Thanks for a great episode.

I really want them to bring Enterprise back but I honestly think that ship has sailed. Trek fans managed to keep TOS going with their campaigns but UNFORTUNATLY their campaign against Enterprise got it canceled . So we have the hardcore Trek fans to thank for getting Enterprise cancelled and the current fiasco we have with DISCO , Picard etc etc

I really like Enterprise. I found the characters compelling and relatable, and I loved the long-shot romance with Tripp and T'Pol. The energy of the crew was scrappy and less polished than TNG and Voyager, and I enjoyed that.

Thanks, guys! Enterprise was always my favorite Trek. In my opinion, the best captain, best first officer, best engineer, best doctor, and best communications officer (well, maybe a tie there with Uhura!) I loved both versions of the theme song (maybe a slight edge to the second one). Third and Fourth seasons were especially fantastic, though the finale was the single worst Star Trek episode I had ever seen. I still can’t even bear to rewatch a minute of that travesty, though I’ve watched all the other episodes multiple times. It was such an insult to have the (pompous) TNG characters hijack the Enterprise crew I loved, especially on their final voyage. The true series finale to me was the wonderful 2-part Terra Prime arc.

Shran made the last year for me so because of that, it was cancelled too soon. There was also plenty of insight into his culture that could have been pursued and the politics of the Andorian culture. They could have also cleaned up T'Pol as a more Vulcan personality along the lines of the TOS Spock. She appeared too human in all episodes.

Enterprise was something I liked from the beginning. While the first season might have been considered "bad", it was not so bad compared to the first season of Next Gen. As enterprise went on, it got progressively better. I have gone back and re-watched it in its entirety, several times, and my opinion never changes.

Great video essay. Thanks! I've watched every episode of the various Star Trek TV series from TOS through Enterprise. TOS and Enterprise are the only two I own and occasionally rewatch. The third season has Captain Archer making morally dubious decisions (e.g. taking warp components from an innocent ship) in order to enhance the mission to save Earth, something that humanized him for me. Contrast that with some of Janeway's decisions on Voyager. I found something to like in each of the series, but those two are my favorites.

The theme song took some hits. But I loved it. The music. The slides. Absolutely the WORDS. I loved the way the whole opening sequence grew to a crescendo that just exploded into the future! 🚀👩‍🚀

Jeffrey Combs Andorian character is one of my favorite non star fleet characters of all time.

Arguably one of the more realistic and believable versions of the franchise. My favourites are: Original, Enterprise and DS9. The others were just a little tooo "perfect" for my liking.

I enjoyed the flow, you got the sense that Archer and the crew were learning and gettibg better as the episodes went on. You could see the developement of what would become the federation and the Startrek themes we would see in the previous shows (in the future time line of the shows) such a shame.

I totally enjoyed this series. I understood the premise. The cast fit very well. They became a real crew. The theme song suited the series. It would worth the effort to make a movie.

Great backgrounder/overview. Streamed Enterprise a while back. Sorry that it [Enterprise] ended the way it did. Thought Bakula made a great captain.

I think the show-runners were burnt-out and so were the fans.The studio should've waited several years for a new Trek series.

I never watched this show when it was on TV. I have since watched this series multiple times over the last 10 years. The first season is little rough, just like most Star Trek series. Once they hit half-way through the 2 seasons and up into the 4 seasons, it was a great Star Trek series. When I talk to other Star Trek fans about this series, it amazes me how many have never seen it or dismiss it as the worst Trek made. It is sad because it is a great show and getting stronger before it was cancelled.

Cancelling Enterprise at it's absolute peak was a crime. It was just getting epic, and we all got left hanging out to dry on the verge of the romulan war. 🤬

I really like Enterprise. I actually rewatch it more often than I do other Trek series. I especially liked the subtle way Jolene Blalock portrayed T'Pol in the last 2 seasons by having an intense undercurrent of emotion, yet keeping that emotionality in check - just as a Vulcan would - not an easy task for an actor. Bravo JB! Bravo!

Even though it was back in the 60’s when Star Trek first aired, it still today has some feeling of being in the future regardless of the limited technology they had to work with back in the 60’s! It’s fascinating though how many things in Star Trek that was sci-fi back then is actually reality today! Pretty amazing really!

This was my favorite Star Trek. I was really sad to see when it was cancelled. I didn’t even find it until years after it ran. I was busy serving on submarines when it came out. It resonated with me. When I watched it, I was able to watch all of it at once and really enjoyed it.

I know that I'm in the minority, but I always liked the theme song. Years back, around 2005, my Dad was a wedding DJ, and had a bride and groom who wanted the song as their reception entrance song. Yes, it was a Trek themed wedding. The cake was cut with a rather large blade of a Klingon origin.

Exploring the unexplained backstory of things that were baffling or just never addressed was fun. Klingon forehead ridges. Andorian society. Vulcan social changes. And the Mirror Universe two-parter's final twist was great, as was the point at which the timelines seems to split.

Just when we were about to see the Earth/Romulan war it got axed! That was a extremely short sighted and tells you how burned out Braga and Berman were. I thought the Andorians were portrayed the best in Enterprise. Even Strange New Worlds version looks cheap. Especially the antennas. At least they moved and looked alive on Enterprise. All other versions look like cheap glued on pieces of rubber.

@thomasjoychild4962

Re: SNW, I might be wrong but I thought previous depictions of aenar had their antennae be longer and less mobile/expressive than andorian ones, so Hemmer's seemed consistent to me? The antennae on Enterprise were great, but they were a nightmare from a behind the scenes standpoint. The motors that moved them were easy to visually hide but they broke down a lot and they were so loud that EVERY line from an actor playing an andorian and a lot of lines from other actors in scenes with andorians had to be ADR'ed in post. I don't know if the tech has advanced since then and gotten quieter or what, or maybe it'd be cheaper now to do the antennae as full CGI, but at the time, the cost of all the ADR and repairs was a factor in how often Andorians showed up IIRC. I'm definitely not disagreeing that it looked great though.

Loved Enterprise. Have watched all four seasons six times now, more than any of the other series. Agreed the last episode wasn't done well, as it had deserved to go out by itself rather than in the Next Generation. Find Enterprise easy to go back to and watch than any of the other series, apart from the original which I have watched about five times, Love the video. Love Enterprise.

I loved the ST Enterprise series and was very disappointed that it ended up being canceled after such a short time, plus it was underrated from the beginning considering it was supposed to be before all the others time wise in the Star Trek universal ages and before the 1701 with Captain Kirk. Scott Bakula did a great job with being the captain of the NX-01, and it is so sad that he didn’t have the recognition as those of the other series as others did with their characters. I will always be a big fan of the WHOLE entire Star Trek series, and movies as well, it is more hopeful than a lot of others I’ve seen lately, and much more practical as well. The stories are strong and also actors and actresses, including all those behind the scenes helping to create an enduring universe of the future or what it could become, all thanks to Gene Roddenberry’s vision of space travel.
