There's no such thing as absolutes. What are your favorite episodes from Star Trek series that aren't your favorite?
I flat-out couldn't get into ENT at all. Not because it was a prequel or didn't look exactly like TOS -- how much I like DSC (a whole lot to put it into an understatement) has sure put that argument permanently to rest -- but the characters, the stories, and the fact that I was just about done with the Berman Era by that point. I stopped watching the series after the first six episodes when it was on, caught a few during the fourth season, then binged the entire series one week in 2010.
The Temporal War did nothing for me. My opinion of the Temporal War is the same as those who don't like the Klingon War in DSC. I'm not a fan of Xindi either -- I'm going to lie, I think they're ridiculous, interesting looking but ridiculous -- but I'd take them over the Temporal War and the Suliban.
I wasn't interested in seeing the 22nd Century or the founding the Federation either. Whereas, I was probably more pre-disposed to like DSC because the 23rd Century was my favorite anyway and virtually every show I've gotten into in the past 10 years has been heavily serialized.
All that having been said, during my binge of Enterprise these episodes stood out to me. I really liked them. I'm relying off faded memory because it's been seven years:
S1
Fight or Flight
Civilization
Silent Enemy
Two Days and Two Nights
S2
Singularity
Judgment
Cogenitor
Regeneration
S3
Anomaly
Rajiin
Strategem
There's some stuff later on in S3 too but it's blurred together, so I can't remember which episodes they're from.
S4
Home
The Forge, The Awakening, Kir'Shara
The Aenar
In a Mirror Darkly
Demons, Terra Prime
That's a pretty good portion of S4 actually.
So, if I can admit those, you can admit some favorite episodes of Star Trek series you don't particularly care for overall.
Who else is brave enough to step up to that plate and admit that you don't completely "hate" a specific Star Trek series? It won't kill you. Or at least that's what they say. I guess you won't find out for sure unless you try...
