Maybe. My problem was Paramount and the f*cking syndication packages. When they turned on the network, I ended up never watching the last 2 seasons of Voyager - I know the basics, and realistically I had started to lose interest. When they made it tough for me to find, that was it. Heck, I really didn't have access to Enterprise until it was well into its second season, and back then, it was hard to catch back up. To this day, I've seen about 15 episodes of Enterprise, give or take and there are at least 20 Voyager episodes I've never seen.

And I call myself a Trekkie...

Voyager was absolute shite. The whole premise was stupid and it never made it past that.

Enterprise, I never understood the rage about it. People were pissing and moaning about the theme song...I kept thinking really?...

Frankly the writing of Enterprise was superior to a lot of the original series...never mind TNG. Really, if you take the time to get to the third season you will find it was finally getting where most fans wanted it to be (much like it took TNG three seasons to really get decent).

Paramount blows...and I struggled to find Enterprise at times myself..I actually finished watching its run by purchasing the 3rd season...other then that insult to the fans final episode, it was well worth the purchase.

I can't endorse this opinion. I know pretty much how it went down: "Okay - we want to take some of the strong points of TNG - especially Q and the Borg, and blend them with DS9's strengths, the Gamma quadrant, the Bajoran-Cardassian conflict (via the Maquis), and return to the adventure/episodic format (versus the threaded, novel-like story of DS9) with a female captain."

I'm not saying it should have engendered excitement and the execution was spotty at times, but it is not a terrible premise. I've still never forgiven Seven of Nine for Obama. But that's a story for another time.
