ENT Forum Get To Know You Thread Pt 2

[Maoilíosa]

Hello everyone!
Lifelong Star Trek fan here. I enjoyed all of the series quite a bit, TNG being my favorite though.
I'm from the Pacific Northwest, am a paleo-anthropologist at a local university, my desk is overflowing with Star Trek gadgets, toys, and various gizmos.

Glad to be here,

Maoilíosa

I'm a Norwegian Star Trek fan. When I was young in the 90s, I always struggled to see all the episodes and series. Perhaps a channel would show a couple of seasons, then lose the rights, or decide against buying more. Thankfully it's a lot easier these days, and I've seen all episodes a few times. I really appreciated Enterprise the last time I saw it about two years ago. Glad Discovery is here now.

Hello everyone! I'm a 28 years old Star Trek fan from Germany. My trekkiness started out over a decade ago with VOY and some of the Trek movies. Then a few years ago, my husband convinced me to watch ENT because "it's not as bad as everyone says it is" and boom!, halfway through season 2 I fell in love with this show (I think it was the moment we switched to English dubbing). I still can't believe how much hatred this show received when it originally aired!
Anyway, I'm glad there's still an active ENT board out there. I've been an unregistered reader for quite some time but now I thought I'd finally log in and participate.
Oh, I also catched up on TNG, parts of which sure are great, but I had a really hard time connecting to the characters... they were too perfect for my taste. Recently I started my first DS9 watch. And I'm really enjoying DSC so far.

Version one here.
The purpose of this thread is for new members of the forum to introduce themselves, and for old members to get to know each other a bit better.
Happy posting!

I watch the original in repeats when I was a child. I watched the next two as they aired. I watched V in repeats. I'm now watching E. I just finished season 02.

Anyone else going to STLV:2018??? This time I'm staying all 5 days! So much to see and so little time! Re-watching "Enterprise" again just saw "Cogenitor" (Trip really screwed up here). Tonite: "Regeneration" Yikes!! BORG Alert!!! Looks like Archer and Lt. Reed save the day again! Any suggestions on what to look for at ST Con? (Items from shows) Appreciate it!

Hi, I'm an aging old fart who was watching StarTrek before most of you were born. I am really enjoying Enterprise (WTH didn't they have more Andorians on the original series?) Anyway, "hi".

You're not that old - I have been watching Star Trek since it started back in '66. I thought nothing could top seeing the Beatles at Shea Stadium the year before! I watched all the series and when it went off the air I was bummed. Now, I'm watching all the series (one after another) on H & I network (CH. 13.4 for me) and until last January - I NEVER HEARD OF OR SAW "ENTERPRISE". Once I started watching, I got hooked!!! Loved the entire series and I'm re-watching again. Loved the interaction with all the characters (Especially between Capt. Archer and Shran(Andorian Leader)!! I also loved all the scenes with Tucker and Reed. They really are the 'Odd Couple' of the crew! So, I guess this means I'm an old lady? Maybe by age but like Peter Pan I never grew up!! See you at the Con?? Live Long and Prosper!

I never even knew this topic existed until now, otherwise I would've used it too when I signed up a few months ago.

[Trip's still my guy]

Hi! I'm back. Around the time Enterprise was on, I was here as [trip's my guy] or Triptacular. I think those were my only names. I've been following a couple of ENT people on Twitter & FB & have been enjoying the pic reminders of great episodes & scenes.

I'm also here because I'm one of the leaders in trying to get the show FOREVER back. We have a big event this weekend & I want to let any Trek & FOREVER fans know about it because we're trying to get CBS All Access to pick-up FOREVER & make new seasons.

*sneaks into Enterprise forum*. (I normally lurk over at Voyager...)

Just saying the show is growing on me, Liked Scott Bakula in quantum leap (when i was so small - i still think of "oh boy" when i see him!), thought he'd make a good trek captain when i first heard. Stretching out watching the episodes so they last me some time. Ive actually seen the very last episode. To be honest (dont kill me) its not too bad!

anyway, hi y'all!

Now im older i think Scott Bakula is - again, dont kill me!

*runs away*

Scott is a lot older too but still looks great! Love watching N.C.I.S.NOLA with him!

Well, Hello there fellow crewmates!! Glad to be back! I only started watching "Enterprise" back in January 2017. After "Voyager" ended, I thought "no more Star Trek". While flipping through channels last year, I found all of the series were being shown and almost stopped when they announced "Next up Enterprise" and I saw Scott Bakula. I was totally shocked but looked in. They had just started the "Xindi" episodes. It was so good that I kept watching from that night on - I couldn't believe that I never knew it existed and I've never actually seen Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating ANYWHERE on TV due to work, bills, etc. How did I miss all this??? Well now I'm a total Enterprise fan and I consider "Trip" & "Reed" my friends! Had pictures taken with them last year and this year! These guys are just two peas in a pod and look out when they get together - too much fun!! Anyway, I'm hooked! Oh yes, I'm Ensign Ellora Dannan and happy to be aboard!

Welcome back! Just a note, 'Enterprise' is available on Netflix and CBS ALL ACCESS as well.

I don't have either. CBS All Access is a Pay for view and I can't afford it.

Trip's still my guy and Ellora Dannan, welcome back!

So is Netflix.

Just finished the entire series for the first time on DVD. I didn't watch it on its tv run. I was burned out after Voyager and wasn't watching much tv. I heard Enterprise wasn't as good but dove in anyway. I have to say I liked it a lot. Definitely not TNG or DS9 but still good. Contrary to many I liked Seasons 1 & 2 a lot, Season 3 not so much and Season 4 a lot (except the mirror universe episodes). I'm not quite sure why there is so much negativity directed toward it. Sure there are things they could have done better, especially around character development. But I liked it much better than BSG which I'm watching now and Discovery which I watched over the summer. Trek always provided a more optimistic view of the future and I will always be a huge fan for that. Enterprise continued this approach. BSG, while good, and Discovery, which has not yet been good, do not do so. I will definitely be back to rewatch Enterprise.
