[QUOTE="uv23, post: 438044, member: 678"] Mark, if you don't like reading about people's opinions other than your own then you should do your blood pressure a favor and not waste your time on internet message boards. As far as improving Enterprise goes, there are countless ways. a) Time travel is bullocks. Its a stupid concept that has been beaten to death by every next gen series before it. Voyager's entire ending was based on time travel for cripes sakes. b) Everything is too easy. This is pre-Kirk. I want to see ingenuity, hard work, blood and sweat. I don't want to see more miracle creations from the engineer as he single handedly staves off the destruction of the ship by combining parts from a hand blender and a warp nacelle. c) No one ever dies. This is a much harder time. Give the show some edge by inserting the occasional casualty. To my knowledge, they don't have force field technology at the time so why did no one get sucked out when the entire side of the enterprise's saucer section get ripped out? This is no galaxy class cruiser - there's not a lot of room to spare that wouldn't be populated. d) Its too clean. Brannon Braga needs a hard lesson in watchign some of the grittier sci-fi movies out there. I just watched Alien 4 again the other night. And while its no masterpiece, I foudn myself far more involved and creeped out because of a greater feelign of realism rather than the comfort of beautiful plasticky bulkheads. e) Enough with the soap opera! If I wanted soap opera, I'd watch the Young and the Restless. They pull it off far better. Give us real storylines and real drama - not some adolescent sexual tensiuon between horny human captains and their ridiculous bodysuit-wearing vulcan science officers. And I could go on and on and on.. I wanted this show to be good, which is why I am doubly dissapointed by the fact that it is not. If you don't like it, too bad. I will continue to express my opinions regardless. [/QUOTE]
