Am I the only one who thinks this is stupid? They shepard a storyline through a season, trying to keep you guessing, then they pull this future crap again. There's nothing you could do to guess this (well, besides the fact that it's almost predestined given the nature of the show). There are no clues to follow, you're not unraveling the mystery with our intrepid crew. You're not being engaged, you're being force-fed.

Then again, maybe I can't bitch because I don't watch anymore. Thoughts?

Yeah, the post is hidden for a reason.

Oh its ridiculous alright. Hopefully this will be the last season of Enterprise. At least have Archer ram the ship into the Xindi weapon, blowing both up, saving earth and making it so that NX-01 Enterprise barely existed.

Honestly, it is not that bad.

Is it great? no.

would I rather watch it more than a bunch of other crap on TV, yes

If you ask me, the biggest mistake they made all season was "Carpenter Street." It just totally destroyed the believability of the arc for me. But we knew from the beginning that the Xindi and the humans were going to have a conflict 400 years in the future and that their world would be destroyed. We learned this all the way back in "The Expanse" in S2. Then we got the twist that the Xindi world was destroyed a hundred years AGO, by civil war. It's how that twist will be explained that I'm hoping won't suck.

I'm only three episodes in so I'm starting to like Enterprise. The re-vamped theme tune is still crap though.

My theory is that in the 500 years between the time the Xindi's homeworld was destroyed and humans destroy their world, they'll establish a new home world.

Yeah. Likely.

Enterprise seemed to be getting better, until I got the Firefly DVD boxset, then I realized that any improvements made were really not that much.

I'm still more stoked about finishing watching my Firefly eps in order, than I am about watching Ent. I haven't seen the first two eps after the pilot and there's three unaired eps. This show was gold, I can't say enough good things about it.
