You wanna know why Voyager sucked? And why Enterprise is having a huge struggle to gain an audience?

Deep Space Nine.

I've been watching reruns on DS9 on Spike TV. And it's AMAZING how even it's bad episodes are a HUGE cut above anything seen since.

To me, the problem with the two shows is that they didn't make the plots believable for a Star Trek universe (which goes to show you how BAD it is!)

I like some of the Voyager episodes and 1st season Enterprise episodes, but only because of their topics and not because of the execution. There are characters I like in both shows.

My final straw was during the 1st season of Enterprise, when the crew had pissed off another race and they were beaming down to "apologize" at a dinner. So what does Captain Archer do? Take his dog and piss them off more. What captain takes his dog on that kind of mission?!?!?!?

It's cool how mean the Vulcans are in Enterprise though. They had some good plots centered on the Vulcans.

That episode pissed me, off, too. Archer was a jerk in that episode. One of the problems with Enterprise is while everyone out there is written pretty consistently, Archer isn't. One episode, he's an ass, another he's a boy scout, and another he's Bruce Willis.

I'm still happier with Enterprise than Voyager, though. Voyager really just insulted my intelligence.

I remember watching the first few Enterprise episodes and getting mental whiplash at the Vulcan's recalcitrance at divulging any sort of information. Or when they had to pop a hull plate off the hull, and for a few episodes, it stayed gone. A little thing, I know, but I appreciated it.

Yeah I liked that too. They had to work hard to get the ship repaired, and there was obvious continuity between episodes. I know ST:TNG could have benefitted from that at times.

Voyager, too. The bad thing about Voyager was how the ship had that Starfleet Fresh look week after week.

Yeah. Considering it's not eactly pulling into a starbase for repairs when the manual says, I'd expect Voyager to start looking a little ragged around the edges. Have a few scorch marks here and there on the hull, y'know?
