PostSat Jan 24, 2004 11:02 pm    What would you do to better enterprise..

Raitings Slumps Down
1 - There is only 1 admiral.
2 - There is only 1 starship NX-01.
3 - Not enough action on 1 episode.
4 - No actual starbase.
5 - Not enough aliens.
6 - Too many time spent on the ship.
7 - Weapons are very limited.

What can they do?
1 - More action on 1 episode.

2 - Add 2, 3, or even 4 new starships.

3 - Have more Vulcan time.

4 - Have Starfleet and Vulcan teamup and fight enemy aliens.

5 - Meet new aliens like Romulans.

6 - Have Enterprise explore uncharted space and get caught in a time distortion.

7 - Have an episode were Starfleet are planing and constructing more Starships.

8 - Have a massive galatic war, with over 20ships (Starfleet, Vulcan, Andorians?) vs Alien Enemy

9 - Or they could send the enterprise into a time distortion and the enterprise be sent into 24th century... (Then the show can stay at the 24th Century) You can give Archer a Galaxy Class to command or something Then Archer can meet the likes of Picard, Janeway, or even Kira Nerys..

Anyone got any other ideas?

To better Enterprise I'd do the following

1) Introduce more Aliens we were familiar with such as the Tellarites, Bolians etc and along with the Andorians, Vulcans and Humans we could slowly witness an Alliance Building up, leading to the founding of the Federation.
2) Gradually Build up a series of more Star Fleet ships that could have recurring Characters that occasionally show up to help Archer
3) Possibly show more Corruption and Scandal in the Vulcan High Command/Star Fleet with a bizarre plot like a planned Genocide of another Race

Those are some really good perspectives.

To improve it they could...cancel it

Only joking! I disagree with you; I think there should be less action. We get action almost every time, with each episode usually ending in a light-fight. I can't speak for Season 3 as I haven't seen it yet. But, take TNG for example, how often did the ship have to fight? Not very often. You'd get confrontations, edging up to a fight perhaps but it would be avoided at the end. Kinda builds up the tension as you didn't know whether there would be a fight or not. But in Enterprise, we've come to expect some fight of some sort at the end...so it doesn't have quite as much impact. And then it sort of seems...well, trivialised. I know the special effects are excellent and all that but...well that's my opinion...

IMO, I think a little more things with the crew and internal conflicts would help out the show greatly.

PostWed Feb 04, 2004 1:14 pm    how about some history already!!!!!

When the series started I was excited at the prospect of seeing the events leading up to the formation of the UFP as it existed in Kirk's time.


....I'm still waiting

1) Take Enterprise off the Air.
2) Make new Series.

Every one of your ideas is great, Borgslayer. Particularly your suggestion for having more Vulcan time.

However, and I do apologize for throwing cold water on one of your ideas, I would not like to see your ninth suggestion come to fruition. I think Enterprise needs to strike out on it's own and not rely on names from the past (or would that be the future?).

If the writers wanted, they could have Q from TNG show up. Or The Cardassians. Now, Q and The Cardassians were not encountered until the TNG era so it'd be a little unrealistic to show them on Enterprise. Or any other alien race from other Trek shows to be honest.

I just feel, that if Kirk, Picard, Janeway or villains such as Q appeared, it'd be tantamount to Enterprise admitting it needs established characters to help it, rather than being able to be successful as it's own entity.

I'd rather see Enterprise go with new races, new situations and not dealing with anything that was not officially encountered until the Kirk and post-Kirk eras.

Good ideas, though.
