Berman and Braga are behind much of Star Trek nowadays. It also seems to many fans that inconsistancies and inaccuracy is what is killing the franchise, not to mention Hollow sotries filled with nonsense. There is a certain lack of depth and weak stories..where as in B5 (for example) most of the story was well thought out before hand.
Enterprise shows some promise ....but they keep dropping the ball for a number of reasons. These small failings appeared in the other series as well.
Next Gen had too many sotries where they rushed the ending or had two stories going at once. Finish a complete script before shooting it eh? Nemisis was decent but bad from the perpective that it was not as grand as it could have been seemed rushed to compete with LOTR Two Towers.
DS9 ...well B5 came along and had a better story line and was consistant.
Voyager......getting home was a cool idea just poorly executed with a weaker captain ... the maquis crew walked all over her in my opinion. Glad to see it gone whew.
Enterprise...consistancy has been the problem. Why does T'pol have normal eyebrows? Actually they have not been too true to the history of Trek and that is really what I have a problem with. If you want specific acoutnings of the Starfleet inconsistancies I can go into allot of detail....or check out the Dewback Wing message board. Where is the political intrigue?
Overall though I like Enterprise..I think Archer is handling situations very well.
I would like to see them persue Riker's new command with a number of people from the other shows. What ever happened to Seek out new worlds and new civilizations? They took out allot of the explorer stuff in these new series.
To boldly go...where no one has gone before? The old series gave you a sense of exploration and despite the fact most aliens still looked Human they felt alien still. (they do not now).
