Would like to see Enterprise come back…
- Thread starter JN2849
- Start date
I think that would make a cool short show too. I’d watch it even just as a one-off thing.
after the amazing season that was Picard Season 3 (unless they really screw up the finale which i doubt), Enterprise deserves a one season (10 part event) to give them a truly proper send off. They got shafted royally with their finale of TATV.
I could not agree more. The three major things that have bothered me the most with Trek universe have been.....
1. Original TOS cancellation.
The movie run and Undiscovered Country fixed this. They went out on a high note.
2. TNG cast going out after Nemesis.
All Good Things was awesome, Nemesis not. Hopefully, Picard fixes this (knock on wood).
3. Enterprise Finale.
Terra Prime (and S3-S4 in general) were good IMHO. But TATV was a bummer. Having Riker & Troi do it seemed disrespectful. Plus Trip bought it.
I would love a fix. SNW is set 104 years after S4. We know Yeoh is headed back in time for S31 movie. I think a series is too much, but a 2 hour movie might be doable.
Some would add other stuff, like Kirk's death in Generations, but that never struck a nerve with me the these three did. The end of the Kelvin movies might qualify.
DS9 & VOY did not have epic finales but they were good enough. Everything else is still running.
I would like to see a 10-episode series set 20 years after Enterprise. Perhaps an old foe reemerges as a threat bringing the original crew of the NX-01 together again. When the threat seems dire, Commodore Tucker, who oversees the fleet museum) pulls the lovingly restored NX-01 out of mothballs to fight one last battle against the Xindi.
In all seriousness, I really would like to see the Enterprise crew return for another adventure - perhaps a limited series. There was a lot of bickering about B&B Trek back in the day, but you really never know what you have missed until it's gone and has made a triumphant, yet brief, return.
Who says it needs to be three? Even though it would finally get them to seven seasons.
A 10-part miniseries is fine. Even the Save Enterprise campaign all the way back in 2005 was content with a tv movie and had nothing grander than that in mind.

I didn’t say three seasons. I said ‘PIC season-3-like.’ But regardless, I don’t see a ten part series. As I mentioned earlier, the ENT cast simply does not have the nostalgia value that the TNG cast does. They might do some voiceovers for LDS like Visitor and Shimerman, but that’s probably it.
Being on this… spirited BBS has certainly proven to me that Enterprise is not as well-loved as I believe it ought to be while simultaneously revealing a sizable amount of reverence for Berman-era Trek so, who knows? Beggars can’t be choosers and all that. Maybe people would rally for an Enterprise reunion miniseries if it was done “correctly.”
I am not defining what correctly means, it seems extremely open to interpretation. All I want, personally, is a continuation of the Trip and T’Pol romance and since Ms. Blalock seems reluctant to be in the spotlight again, that seems highly unlikely. (Trip being dead, however? That’s a minor plot inconvenience.)

DS9's series finale is second or tied with TNGs for me. Plus, it ends on a somber note unlike any of the other official "series finales".
The cast of ENT are under no illusions that they wlll ever be asked back by CBS/Paramount for some new show. I was at a convention not too long ago where Anthony Montgomery was speaking. His attitude was simply that things have moved on and TPTB are focused on other things. He wasn't bitter about it at all because he's an actor and he recognizes that that's how real life works. No one is patiently waiting by their phone for a call from CBS.
I’m sorry if I implied anyone was waiting for a phone call. That was not my intention. All the actors from Enterprise aproach their acting career with a very candid, prosaic attitude. I would never want to paint any of them as indulging a fantasy that Enterprise is going to be on the air again.
I don't think this is a spoiler but
the NX-01 turns up in Picard in the fleet museum in it's refit configuration 250 years after it's launch.
Well, my viewpoint is that there isn’t much to keep me watching now that PIC has completed its run. In the sense that I will be there as soon as the episodes drop. Even with the dreadful S2 of PIC, I was up watching it in the middle of the night as soon as the latest episodes drop to see what’s next. The rest of the shows don’t have the same sense of urgency. Not even my current fav, Lower Decks, as I just binge it later. Legacy is wait and see for now, since I don’t know when that show is going to happen, or what they are going to do with it in terms of plotlines.
The only things that would be on the level of PIC that would have that sense of urgency for me would be:
- The return of Sisko
- An ENT reunion series/tv movie.
I don't know if you've tried Prodigy already but I do recommend it. It was rough for me at first, but once I got into it, I really enjoyed the season. I'm not a VOY fan really and I liked what they did with Janeway which made me appreciate even more what Kate Mulgrew brought to the role. The animation, character development, and Trek idealism were all there. Now, I do think it was influenced by Star Wars, and has a Clone Wars kind of bad guy, but even with that, there's more to the character than a Saturday Morning Cartoon villain.
Regarding Prodigy's ties to ENT, there's even cameos from:
Xindi-Reptilians
Enterprise has grown more and more on me over the years so I’d watch it.
But I think what they should do is come up with a show called something like “Star Trek Legends.” And each episode could show a story about a past character from any of the previous shows in their life.
As much as I would love to see them together, an Admiral Archer episode or a Malcolm saves not dead Trip from secret S31 facility would be fun little peak ins to their lives.
I think they could get a lot of characters, from Voyager, Enterprise, DS9 willing to come back for a one episode thing.

After Nemesis, the same thing was said about the TNG cast by the TNG cast. They were done.
And yet...
