So, I've started watching Enterprise and due to the popular opinion that it sucks ass my expectations were pretty low. But I'm 7 episodes in and I actually like it. Maybe because I'm just coming off of Voyager (which has possibly the least satisfying ending of all time, couldn't you have made 10 minutes of time for a real fucking wrap-up?) and am still suffering minor Janeway-related brain damage, but it seems to be a pretty decent show. The exploration of pre-Feddie Trek is interesting, the set design is good, at least on the NX-01, and the cast seem to be fairly competent. Archer is alright. And aside from going hot into the mpreg episode right at the start the stories have been solid. Does this turn into a flaming wreck later on or are the tales of how awful this show is exaggerated?

Getting worked up over Riker larping as Chef is stupid. We never see his face, Chef could be anyone. The whole holodeck simulation isn't canon because how can the computer make that shit up anyway? Riker is not Chef, why do people say this? He was playing as Chef on his ENT larp. T'Pol could be programmed with a nicer bum and Riker would not have known the difference.

That's the damn point, part of the appeal of some characters is that they're always mentioned but never seen (and sometimes never heard) onscreen. I'm sure goytropes has an article on the phenomenon.
Also, while it was certainly annoying I don't think anyone claims Riker pretending to be Chef is the worst travesty that the ENT finale completed; there are plenty bigger problems like the retarded plot, the character development from the last season getting a big reset, and Trip's hamfisted death, which was needless and served no purpose besides adding some fake drama to the episode. Riker being Chef is just the irritating little cherry on top.

I am I the only one that hated the fucking utter fan masturbation session that was the Klingon augment virus arc? So much effort for something that could have just as easily been resolved by an studio executive flat out telling whining trek nerds "look, the Klingon simply look and act different from TOS because of advancements in make-up and effect budgets and to make them more distinct from the Romulians. Just use your damn imagination and pretend they always looked like that"
Not to mention the explanation made things even stupider. The TOS Klingons looked and acted like that because were literally part human? That's just fucking lame.

no I really hated how Klingons were handled throughout ENT, honestly they shouldn't have been anywhere near it and the same goes for romulians too, all the aliens we should have seen should have been the ones closet to earth.

The Klingons certainly should have been down played after the pilot. I think the rather under used Tellarites and Nausicaan would have been far better choices as the baddies in the later Klingon episodes
But frankly they should have *increased* the presence of the Romulians because of the Vulcan connection. In fact ditching the useless temporal cold war idea in favor of the Romulians conducting a prolonged proxy war against the Vulcans and their allies would have been a far very better meta plot subject for the course of the show. Basically turing the plot of the 4th season arc over the course of two entire seasons.
You could have even kept the Sulibans in mostly the same role, but turned them and the Romulians into a dark reflection of the humans and Vulcans. Where the vulcans held back their technology and tried to be mostly hands off earth's development while also trying to keep earth from overreaching before they were ready, the Romulians flat out uplifted the Sulibans, gave them access to all sorts of technology, even genetic augmentations, then pushed them out into the galaxy as soon as possible to serve as fodder so they romulians wouldn't have to risk their own people. And you could use that to develop Archer's character over the seasons as he comes to realize maybe the vulcans wern't quite the total assholes he thought they were.

STD did exactly this and everyone who doesn't have a shit taste thinks it's stupid. Keeping true to the established canon whilst not being afraid to add their own twists (like the Vulkan plot in S4) is what I liked about ENT. If all you wanted was "TNG but 200 years earlier", just watch TNG.

Ayup. No workplace conflicts, no boat-rocking, the boss being 100% right all the time no matter how bonkers their orders, obsessively following rules laid down from on high. Welcome to both Roddenberry scripts and Japanese workplaces.
Oh, and all the moonrunes in the images you posted are references to Urusei Yatsura. Lotsa weebs on the TNG production staff. And that's not even getting into all the Dirty Pair references. There's a reason that they named a high explosive "keiyurium".

That would have actually been really cool. However, there was no built-up. The reason the Dominion War worked out so well was because it was creeping up real slow and we already established characters like Dukat who'd play perfectly into that storyline.

Riker as Chef on the holodeck would have worked as a decent enough stand alone episode tbh but not as a series finale.
>>26356
The Romulans should have been more of a chief antagonist in ENT. The Klingons should have been dismissive of humans as "weak and unimportant". The Earth Romulan War was only 9-10 years into humanities deep space exploration.
I want a post Voyager series with Archer as the bad guy since he is supposed to be future guy. Also, if Archer is the bad guy maybe we can get some flashbacks and see the Earth Romulan War on screen for once.

The implication was always there, and it's an old trope in fantasy that elves or an elvish race compensates their coolish, graceful attitude secretly with a high sex drive .
They sexualised T'Pol too much though. She has no ass and that lube scene from the pilot makes everybody not taking the show seriously.

It's probably just a combination of the garbage most modern processed food is. Even shit that shouldn't need an ingredients list does. I can't buy heavy cream that isn't thickened with something like carageenan or locust bean gum. Shit that comes in a box is even worse. It's filled with all sorts of artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, and soy byproducts. There's also all the pharmaceutical contamination in our drinking water. People give filter man shit, but there really is a lot of garbage allowed to be in our water. That's not even counting fluoride.
So people eat this crap and chub up, so they decode to go on a diet and lose the weight. They cut calories like crazy, and stop getting healthy amounts of protein and vitamins. That makes their body stop wasting protein on things like hair. My mother had weight loss surgery. She lost weight like crazy, but also had her hair thin. When she got down to a healthy weight it eventually came back once things stabilized.
So I don't think it's that surprising once you realize how bad the jew has poisoned us.
