Is Robert Picardo (The Doctor) right that I shouldn't criticize
Starfleet Academy because I haven't seen the new Alex Kurtzman
Star Trek?

There's like 2 or 3 interruptions where the guy advertises his own
books, because apparently they're that good. I don't do X, but I can see
on the screenshot 'I became #1 bestselling author by standing for
Christian values.' and I'm wondering why that would be a good thing?
Guy's got like 503 subscribers on his YT channel.

I don't say I disagree (or agree) with his point of view, but should I
know this man and why is his opinion important?

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.

That never happened

The Zindi arc was

Are you going to make me troll meter you?

intrigue, and a compelling seasonl

long story.

This is all nonsense

But it was season 4 that made Enterprise the prequel it really

should have been from the beginning.

Only the finale made it the show it shouldrCOve been

At last, we got stories that tied into

longtime Trek cannon.

ThatrCOs not the word you think it is.
And all it ever did was contradict real trek

Some brilliant episodes and fantastic writing. But for

Not one good episode

The first half was OK. But the second incredibly terrible half with the incredibly horrible CGI Gorn and their attempt to make some new sets to
match classic trek that totally failed completely wiped out any enjoyment
that might have been derived for the first half.

Is there someway to block this guy because herCOs either a liar or a retard
or both.

And what has Robert Picardo got to do about anything?

Gotta disagree.

To repeat an earlier post of mine: I watched the first
becuase, well, first. Then gave up.

However...

At the end, they announced the final four airings
would be the best four as chosen by viewers.

So I figured I'd watch them.

One of them was actually good. (Where they visited
a Vulcan religious retreat planet that, well,
wasn't quite what the Vulcans claimed [a])

A second one was decent, though I don't recall the details.

The other two? I switched channels...
