Enterprise: random rambles

[starrylizard]

I've never watched Startrek Enterprise before, but I realised the other day that at some point (likely several years ago) I bought the first 3 seasons on DVD. I started watching some today.

Does anyone else find it weird that Enterprise was part of an Earth collaboration, Starfleet, etc. And yet. the opening theme only shows American achievements in flight and space travel? Why not stick some Russian, Japanese, British etc. achievements in there? It's so very small-minded given what Startrek is all about. *sigh*

Anyhoo, the theme song is stupidly catchy. Might see if it's available to download on iTunes or something. I'm liking the slightly stuffy security guy and the medical officer. It's a nice cross of new and original startrek series so far, but I bet the die-hard fans struggled with it being a little inconsistent with original trek. Luckily I'm a fan, not a die-hard fan. Ha!

Yes.

I enjoyed Enterprise but didn't watch to the end.

I know right! Like what?

I'm enjoying it in that way you enjoy a show when you have all the eps and just watch several in a row. :)

I think I'd have watched to the end if I could have watched it that way. I'm not good at weekly episodes, which is why I don't watch regular TV =)
