Star Trek Enterprise had only really hit its stride and become a solid addition to the franchise by the third season of the show. The Zindi arc was well written and packed full of action, intrigue, and a compelling seasonl long story. But it was season 4 that made Enterprise the prequel it really should have been from the beginning. At last, we got stories that tied into longtime Trek cannon. Some brilliant episodes and fantastic writing. But for most fans, the highlight of that season was the two-part mirror universe episode, In a Mirror Darkly, where we see mirror universe versions of the NX01 crew, and they encounter the USS Defiant from the original series episode, The Tholian Web. The ship was sent back in time and into the mirror universe, and we got a fun two-parter out of that show. Now, as fun as that two-parter was, it could have potentially been even better because William Shatner was originally supposed to appear in those two episodes playing Tiberius, the mirror universe version of Captain James T. Kirk.

I could never get into Enterprise. One of the local broadcast channels
in my area has star trek every night starting with the TOS through, I
think, Enterprise. The episodes are broadcast in order.
I TRIED to enjoy Enterprise. Just couldn't get into it. Acting was
fine. The cast seemed to have a good chemistry. Maybe I was treked out
at the time. Or maybe a bit of bias.
Discovery was a fucking waste. I feel bad too, because most of the
actors did a good job with what they had. Picard, I couldn't get through Season 1. It was soooooo lame. Though, I've heard the latest season was really good to those who suffered through the previous seasons.
If I could get an original VHS set of TOS it would be great. When 'they' added computer graphics to TOS for the modern era, it cheapened the show
to me. I prefer the original. I'm nostalgic for the imagination.

rCLRemasteredrCY TOS with its low end video game CGI replacement FX is a travesty. My Blu-ray set gives you the option of watching the crappy new version or the cleaned up live action with the original FX.

The mirror universe thread should've stayed where it started - in
TOS. It was SO lame how they folded it into a routine place to go like getting milk at the corner store.

Trek always does this: It hints at SF, then turns
everything mundane. Even the Borg turned out to be Just
Like Us in the end.

Lack of creativity is all.

I find the mirror universe a great idea to give the audience a change, broaden the possibilities for the writers and for the actors to show
that they can do different than their normal role.

Isn it sad when you spoil the fun for yourself instead of just
enjoying?
