For me, as a novice, I enjoyed this first season. No, it\u2019s hardly perfect as the performances are relatively average (save perhaps for Jolene Blalock and John Billingsley) and, especially early on, the stories tend to be a tad boring.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the various \u201cStar Trek\u201d series had some comedy, even comedic-centric episodes, I found <strong><em>Enterprise<\/em><\/strong> seemed to have an above average number of those including Reed becoming pregnant while aboard a foreign alien vessel (attempting to repair their warp system).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The season, and series, isn\u2019t without its flaws and even though it doesn\u2019t exactly break new ground from other <em>Star Trek<\/em> series, other than being a prequel of sorts, I kind of enjoyed a majority of the episodes. The plots are generally well written and each episode helped pass 45-minutes by quite nicely, although there\u2019s not one episode that stood out from the next.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><u>Here were my thoughts on the fourth season (just to note the difference):<\/u><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>Star Trek: Enterprise<\/em><\/strong> probably the black sheep amongst the \u201cTrek\u201d shows and although the series, which ended its run after only four seasons, certainly had more than a few mediocre episodes, there were moments of brilliance that came in season three and continued in this fourth season. However, season four might\u2019ve started off with a bang but it ended with what most considered, me included, a major bust.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The season begins with the conclusion to the third season cliffhanger with a two-part season premiere as on Earth, during the 1940s, finds the Nazis invasion further than they had historically, taking over the eastern part of the United States even with the aid of an alien species helping the Germans, who have captured Captain Archer (BAKULA), build a time portal back which would spell all sorts of doom if the Enterprise and her crew hope to get back to their own time unaltered.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It\u2019s a great hook and start of the season purporting what\u2019s to be expected with strong storytelling and even stronger character development, in particular the growing relationship between T\u2019Pol (BLALOCK) and Tucker (TRINNEER) which gets explored, and tested, in \u2018Home\u2019 where Tucker visits Vulcan and meets T\u2019Pol\u2019s mother and also is forced into an arranged marriage a Vulcan hierarch d-bag.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The fourth season, perhaps because they knew it was on the chopping block, seemed pretty liberated in its storytelling, expanding on the universe and even delving into the development of the Federation; I also enjoyed the multi-part episodes that, from my reading and watching the bonus material, was done for budgetary reasons when building multi-used sets. The best of the season in my non-Trekkie book was \u2018In the Mirror, Darkly\u2019 which allowed not only for compelling drama but for the cast to change personas. Another highlight was the Augment storyline featuring guest starring role from Brent Spiner who is absolutely incredible in the villainous role.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One reason, outside of fearing it being cancelled, was the change show runners with Brannon Braga stepping aside, maybe out of fatigue, and handing the reins over to Manny Coto who had many new and innovative ideas of where to take the season; Coto certainly opened things up to the point if one wonders if any one of these storylines were implemented in the second season, if not the first, whether the series would\u2019ve gone forward.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>SPECIAL FEATURES \u2013 5.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Like the <em>Star Trek: The Next Generation<\/em> before it, <strong><em>Enterprise<\/em><\/strong> is housed in a bulky, extra-thick keep case that is taller than a Blu-ray case.

The transfer might not look perfect, but considering the source and the work done, the detail levels are good and colors appear to be well balanced. There are some minor bouts of grain but it never is overpowering. Obviously the main downside is the visual effects and some of the lower end set designs doesn\u2019t quite look right yet it\u2019s only minor in the grander scheme of things.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>AUDIO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\">While <em>The Next Generation<\/em> got an upgrade to 7.1 channels, the 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track may not pack the same punch yet it\u2019s certainly good enough presenting clear dialogue from the center channel, good ambient noises (such as ship sounds) for the rear speakers though when we get into action-heavy scenes, that\u2019s where this lossless track isn\u2019t quite complete.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>OVERALL \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall, <strong><em>Star Trek: Enterprise<\/em><\/strong> is considered the bastard child in the <em>Trek<\/em> universe and perhaps dead last compared with others like <em>The Next Generation<\/em>, <em>Voyager<\/em> and <em>Deep Space 9<\/em>.
