A formal apology for "These are the Voyages"

THIS. Definitely this.

"Hey Boys and Girls! I'd just like to thank you all for being Star Trek fans and for purchasing this very special release edition of remastered high definition Enterprise. It truly is a very special series and I'm proud to have been a part of it. And with that in mind I'd like to offer my sincere apologies for what should have been a truly wonderful series finale for Enterprise. But I've read your letters and emails and I know that for you, the fans, something was missing and since the fans are what Star Trek is all about I want you to know I've heard what you have had to say. And I'm sorry. I apologize. We should never have stuffed Frakes and Sirtis into those uniforms without adding some hidden spandex. I hope you will find the airbrushed CGI added to this very special release edition of remastered high definition Enterprise makes your viewing of this wonderful series finale the true valentine I always intended it to be."

Are we already ruling out a public flogging?

lurok · December 19 2012, 01:13 PM

teacake is being far too nice

Did I read somewhere Frakes thought, in retrospect, TATV was a disservice to ENT fans? Anyone know Sirtis' views?

Lots of juicy TATV trashing here:

I want a literal flogging of Braga, Singapore-style, as a Blu-ray extra.

You realize that you don't really speak for the entire fanbase, don't you? I, for one, thoroughly enjoy TATV as an episode. I'll agree it's not a good ending to ENT, but I really enjoy the crossover aspect of the episode and the interactions between the two casts. I agree that it would better fit with a TNG release, but that's highly unlikely and I in no way agree that it should be removed from the canon.

Trekker670 may not speak for everyone but he speaks for many. In fact I'd go so far as to say, he speaks for "most".

Did they already put the "From all of us at Star Trek: Enterprise, happy holidays" promo on any of the DVDs so far? That's a dandy. It's weird seeing T'Pol smile.

How about an option to view "extended" versions of the episodes with finished scenes included?

didn't TATV get put on a "viewer's choice" Trek collective DVD? How did that happen if it's almost universally hated by the fanbase? I'm serious-is the theory that it was a rigged vote with internet ballot-stuffing or that there never was a fan vote on it, and the folks putting together the collection just put what they wanted on it?

I've been wondering for a while how TATV got put on it, with the amount of hatred there is for that episode in fandom.

I think most of the people voting were TNG fans and just voted because of Troi and Riker.

Those Fan Collective polls were bullshit anway.

The Alternative Factor, which many fans considered one of the worst TOS episodes, ended up on one the fan collectives was proof of this.

Endgame being any where on the collectives was also a mistake IMO. What made it worst was that it was on TWO sets!

teacake · December 20 2012, 12:37 AM

THE ALTERNATIVE FACTOR!?

Gah, well that's insane. How did that happen? HOW?

Who knows?

All I know is that episode made my brain melt when I first saw it. It is one of the Trek episodes that I will never rewatch again.
