Brent on ST:Enterprise

Brent Simmons posts his thoughts on Star Trek series V – Enterprise. He's coming from the same angle I am. I'm so excited about this, I'm working on reviving an old tradition among my friends of getting together weekly to watch Star Trek.

When it was 1993-4, and ST:TNG was the shit, we gathered religiously on Thursday nights. I was never too impresed with ST:Deep Space Nine, or ST:Voyager. They were too much like soap operas, and too easy.

Brent says it right: The 24th Century is all played out — it got to the point where any problem could be solved by reversing the polarity of the quantum phase-shift generators (or whatever).

If any of the Anomalies are out there – I miss you guys.
