Did Enterprise have to grow on anyone else?

OK let me explain.

I watched Broken Bow and switched off. I'd loved growing up with TNG, DS9 and VOY. I disowned Enterprise because I felt it was a step backwards. We wpuldn't get to many bits from the trek I knew. That was the thinking of teenage me.

In the eyars to pass, especially with Season 4 connecting more to the Star Trek I know, I grew to accept Enterprise more and more. I do like it's aesthetic also. Interestingly enough it wasn't until I saw New Voyages that I went back and watched The Original Series.

Did anyone else have to do the same thing?

Yes. I watched some of the episodes the first time around and didn't like it well enough to keep watching. I didn't like the theme song, which felt cheesy. I didn't like that it was set 100 years or so before classic Trek. I finally got around to watching the series on Amazon Prime and have fallen in love with it. For me, it was probably a case of it being the wrong time to watch it in the early 2000s and the right time to watch it now.

I liked that in Broken Bow we had brand new aliens (like the moth eating twin girls) or Sarin who could morph into a pretty woman. Too bad there weren't much of these anymore after that episode.
